What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Design Engineer position at Mission Resourcing LLC?
Geoship is building affordable, sustainable factory-built homes using breakthrough bioceramic geodesic dome technology—reimagining how homes are designed, manufactured, and lived in.
Following California housing certification and the launch of our flagship Amma dome, we’re hiring a Product Design Engineer to help finalize and scale our first production-ready system.
This role is ideal for a first-principles thinker who thrives in ambiguity, rapid iteration, and hands-on building. You’ll design and integrate structural, mechanical, and material systems; develop bioceramic components and connection assemblies; prototype, test, and iterate; and collaborate closely with design, materials, manufacturing, and operations teams to bring a new housing category to life.
Location: Hybrid role requiring visits to the production site in Grass Valley, CA twice per month (full-time onsite preferred for some candidates).
Key Responsibilities (Condensed):
- Own component and system design from concept to production
- Design for manufacturability, scalability, and compliance
- Build and test prototypes; validate performance and iterate
- Partner cross-functionally to resolve tradeoffs and support builds
- Produce CAD, drawings, BOMs, DFMEAs, and technical documentation
Qualifications:
- BS in Mechanical Engineering (or related)
- 3–7 years in mechanical/product design on complex assemblies
- Strong CAD (SolidWorks, Fusion, Onshape, etc.)
- Experience taking hardware from concept → prototype → production
- Startup mindset: proactive, adaptable, hands-on
Comp & Benefits:
$125k–$170k base equity, healthcare, HSA, 401k, and the chance to help reinvent housing from the ground up.
