Staff Mechanical Engineer

SirenOpt develops metrology and manufacturing intelligence solutions for advanced coatings, thin films, and nano-scale materials used across batteries, semiconductors, aerospace and other industries. We are looking for a Staff Mechanical Engineer to lead mechanical design and validation of a low-temperature plasma-based metrology sensor platform that will be integrated into high-volume thin-film manufacturing lines. The role requires hands-on prototyping, cross-functional collaboration, and close customer interaction to iterate designs for manufacturability and reliability.

Skills

  • Proficiency in CAD and PDM tools (SolidWorks or OnShape) for part and assembly design
  • Strong GD&T, tolerance analysis, and datum definition skills
  • Experience designing and specifying motion control systems and components
  • Static and dynamic stress/strain analysis, vibration testing and analysis
  • Hands-on prototyping skills using 3D printing, machining, and test fixtures
  • Experience with supplier management and part procurement
  • Familiarity with CMM/OMM inspection and measurement setups
  • Ability to produce clear technical documentation and test reports
  • Experience integrating mechanical systems into manufacturing lines (roll-to-roll or sheet-to-sheet a plus)

Responsibilities

  • Lead mechanical design and validation of a low-temperature plasma-based metrology sensor platform.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (hardware, software, systems) to develop and integrate sensor modules into manufacturing lines.
  • Perform experimental studies and characterization to quantify sensor sensitivity and platform performance.
  • Iterate designs with direct client feedback to optimize integration speed and usability.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation: requirements, 3D/2D CAD, assemblies, BOMs, assembly and test procedures, and test reports.
  • Design for manufacturability, reliability, serviceability (DFx) and support product launch activities.
  • Perform tolerance analysis, GD&T application, and select motion components (motors, stages, couplers, gearboxes).
  • Coordinate with suppliers for parts procurement, lead times, and quality control; set up inspection processes (CMM/OMM familiarity).
  • Perform static/dynamic stress and vibration analysis and apply mitigation strategies informed by sensitivity and risk analyses.

Education

  • B.S. in Mechanical Engineering required
  • M.S. in Mechanical Engineering preferred
  • Minimum 6 years of relevant industry experience

Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company matching
  • 20 days PTO per year plus approximately 15 paid U.S. holidays
  • Opportunities to work on leading-edge materials and manufacturing technologies in a growth-stage company
