Mechanical Product Design Engineer
Location: Boston, MA
Client: Amazon
Job Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Product Design Engineer to join Amazon's product development team in Boston, MA. The ideal candidate will have strong experience designing camera-based and sensor-based products, taking concepts from initial design through prototype and validation. This role requires expertise in mechanical design, thermal management, optics integration, and design for manufacturability while working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
Key Responsibilities
Design and develop innovative mechanical products from concept through prototype and validation.
Lead the mechanical design of camera-focused and sensor-focused systems, ensuring robust performance and reliability.
Create detailed 3D CAD models, assemblies, and engineering drawings using SolidWorks.
Perform thermal analysis and simulations to optimize product performance and thermal management.
Collaborate closely with electrical, software, systems, and manufacturing teams to integrate hardware and software components.
Define, document, and manage mechanical design requirements throughout the product lifecycle.
Conduct tolerance stack-up analysis and validate designs for manufacturability and assembly.
Perform design verification testing, root cause analysis, and structured problem-solving to resolve product issues.
Drive design reviews and ensure compliance with quality, reliability, and production requirements.
Support prototype builds, testing activities, and transition of products into production.
Maintain engineering documentation, including specifications, drawings, test reports, and design records.
Independently manage multiple projects and deliver high-quality solutions within project timelines.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
5+ years of experience in mechanical product design and development.
Strong experience designing camera-based, imaging, or sensor-based products.
Proficiency in SolidWorks for 3D modeling, assemblies, and detailed drawings.
Experience with thermal management and thermal simulation techniques.
Strong understanding of tolerance analysis and mechanical assembly design.
Experience with design verification, testing, root cause analysis, and problem-solving methodologies.
Knowledge of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles.
Ability to work independently and take ownership of product development activities.
Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience using Ansys or similar simulation tools for thermal analysis.
Knowledge of optics, camera systems, and machine vision technologies.
Experience integrating mechanical, electrical, and software systems in complex products.
Experience working on consumer electronics, robotics, imaging systems, or sensor-based platforms.
Familiarity with rapid prototyping, product validation, and production launch processes
