Possess a relevant qualification from a reputable education organisation, such as:
Bachelor of Industrial Design, Product Design or Engineering Design
Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical, Mechatronic, Biomedical)
Who We’re Looking For
A hands-on, highly detail-oriented designer/engineer who thrives on solving complex mechanical problems.
Someone with a passion for good design who considers both form and function with equal attention to detail.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, collaborative consultancy environment.
A proactive mindset with a strong sense of ownership and accountability for design outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
If successful in this application, your key responsibilities will be:
Conducting technical research and interpreting applicable standards and regulatory requirements.
Translating customer needs and user insights into clear design inputs and engineering requirements.
Developing innovative mechanical solutions, particularly for miniaturized, flexible, or steerable systems.
Creating and iterating detailed product designs in 3D CAD, from concept through to production-ready definition.
Designing and executing prototype builds, verification tests, and validation activities.
Driving design for manufacturability, working closely with suppliers to optimize tooling and production processes.
Collaborating with cross-functional teams, including electronics, software, and industrial design.
Liaising with clients, clinical stakeholders, and suppliers to ensure alignment and technical feasibility.
Producing complete, production-ready documentation, including engineering drawings, specifications, and technical files.
Core Skills And Experience
The following skills and experience are required for this role:
Minimum 5 years’ experience working as a mechanical or product design engineer in a product development environment.
Experience creating design presentations and presenting to internal and external stakeholders.
Design of complex assemblies involving tight tolerances, moving interfaces, and flexible elements (e.g., shafts, articulation mechanisms, cable-driven systems, or compliant mechanisms)
Proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks preferred) including advanced surfacing, parametric modelling, and large assembly management.
Proficiency in analyzing tolerance stacks in complicated assemblies and completing engineered fit calculations.
Integration of mechanical systems with electronics and/or embedded components, including cable routing, sealing, and packaging within constrained geometries.
Experience generating and maintaining design documentation for various manufacturing processes, including drawings (ASME Y14.5 GD&T), specifications, BOMs, and technical files.
Strong collaboration with manufacturers and suppliers, including prototyping vendors, toolmakers, and contract manufacturers.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
Minimum Criteria
In addition, an ideal candidate will have at least some of the following:
Experience creating presentation renderings using software such as Keyshot or similar.
Development and execution of design verification testing (DVT), including fixture design, test method development, and data analysis.
Detailed design of injection moulded plastic components, including knowledge of draft, shrinkage, tooling constraints, and material flow.
Hands-on experience with assembly, testing and integration of complicated robotic mechanisms.
Experience with rapid prototyping techniques.
