Senior R&D Mechanical Engineer
SharkNinja is seeking an enthusiastic and skilled Senior R&D Mechanical Engineer to become a vital member of the Ninja Coffee R&D Engineering team. Our R&D team is at the forefront of understanding the mechanics and performance of our products. This multifaceted role encompasses the innovation of new technologies, their integration into product designs, and collaboration with cross-functional teams throughout the entire product development cycle, culminating in mass production. As an individual contributor, you will lead R&D efforts on various projects while also engaging in hands-on engineering tasks in the lab daily, alongside mentoring fellow engineers and Co-Ops.
We are in search of a creative problem solver with a profound understanding of physics and engineering principles. You should feel equally at ease constructing prototypes in the lab and discussing theories on a whiteboard. Your passion for tackling complex engineering challenges will shine through as you prototype, develop and execute test plans, analyze data, and formulate theories that will influence product development for years to come. While this is not a CAD-centric role, you will be instrumental in influencing product design through active participation in design reviews and close collaboration with other teams. An ideal candidate will possess a dual mindset of both a scientist and an engineer, with a deep comprehension of product functionality and the ability to identify key levers to drive innovation.
