Job Title: Mechanical Engineer

🚀 Mechanical Engineer – Medical Imaging (Dental)

Immediate Interviews | Hiring This Week | Entry-Level (1 Year Experience)

Ready to engineer products that improve patient care and push medical imaging forward? We’re hiring a Mechanical Engineer to join a fast‑moving R&D team developing cutting‑edge dental imaging systems—and we’re interviewing right now.

This is a hands-on, design-focused role where your SolidWorks skills, electro‑mechanical mindset, and curiosity will directly impact products used by dental professionals worldwide.

🔬 What You’ll Be Building

You’ll design and develop advanced medical imaging products from concept through production—integrating mechanics, optics, and electronics into fully functional, FDA‑compliant systems.

This is not a maintenance or support role. You’ll be:

• Creating real products
• Building and testing prototypes
• Working side‑by‑side with R&D and manufacturing
• Seeing your designs go into production

🛠️ What You’ll Do

• Design and document electro‑mechanical medical devices in compliance with ISO & FDA regulations
• Develop products from early concept through serial production
• Create detailed 3D CAD models and drawings in SolidWorks (ANSI standards)
• Integrate mechanical, optical, and electronic components
• Build, test, and refine prototypes based on real data and feedback
• Apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles to ensure cost‑effective, scalable designs
• Support verification, validation, and manufacturing transfer
• Collaborate with European R&D teams and key external suppliers
• Contribute to packaging, casting, and enclosure design
• Support optical and laser-related mechanical design
• Actively participate in cost optimization without sacrificing quality or compliance

✅ What We’re Looking For (Entry-Level Friendly)

• BS in Mechanical Engineering
• 1 year of hands-on experience (full-time, internship, or co-op acceptable)
• Strong SolidWorks skills (3D modeling & drawings)
• Working knowledge of electro-mechanical design
• Understanding of fluid dynamics
• Familiarity with DFM principles
• Exposure to medical devices or regulated industries is a plus—but not required
• Comfortable working with prototypes and manufacturing teams
• Clear communicator with strong attention to detail
• Willingness to travel internationally on occasion
• Motivated, proactive, and excited to grow

⭐ Bonus Skills (Nice to Have)

• Experience with optics or laser-based systems
• Background in casting, housing, or packaging design
• Prior experience supporting products through full life cycle
• Collaboration with international engineering teams

🏢 Work Environment

• Modern, recently renovated facility
• Quiet, focused engineering workspace
• Hands-on access to labs, testing, and production areas
• Collaborative, growth-focused engineering culture

You’ll enjoy a balance of deep design focus and real-world product interaction, surrounded by engineers who care about quality, innovation, and impact.
