Job description

Job Details • Sector: Electrical / Electronics • Type: Permanent Working Arrangement: On-site Location: Greater Boston, Massachusetts Salary: Competitive Share this job Location: Massachusetts About the role Our client is a growing technology company hiring a hands-on Electromechanical Engineer. You’ll design, integrate, and prototype electrical and mechanical hardware for advanced electronic and optoelectronic products, and help take it into production. The role sits across disciplines. You’ll bring together PCBs, electronic components, interconnects, and mechanical structures into hardware that works and can be manufactured reliably. You’ll design and lay out PCBs in tools such as Altium Designer, KiCad, or OrCAD, model mechanical parts in SolidWorks, and choose components and materials using datasheets and supplier resources. Products like these often involve high-frequency signals and precise thermal control. That means work in this space can include controlled-impedance design, electromagnetic simulation in tools such as HFSS or CST, and thermoelectric cooler (TEC) based temperature control. Hands-on build and test is a big part of the job. You’ll assemble, debug, test, and characterize hardware, using Python or similar scripting languages to automate tests and analyze data. Optoelectronic packaging of this kind may also involve specialized processes such as die attach, wire or ribbon bonding, hermetic sealing, and fiber attachment. Products for high-reliability markets are often qualified against standards such as MIL-STD-883 or Telcordia GR-468. As designs mature, you’ll help move prototypes into production, working closely with engineering and manufacturing teams on DFM, process development, and yield. Main responsibilities • Design, integrate, and prototype electrical and mechanical hardware for advanced electronic and optoelectronic products • Integrate PCBs, electronic components, interconnects, and mechanical structures into functional, manufacturable hardware • Design and lay out PCBs, and create 3D CAD models and mechanical designs • Select electronic components and materials using datasheets, supplier resources, and distributor databases • Assemble, debug, test, and characterize hardware • Develop Python or similar scripts for test automation and data analysis • Support the transition of prototypes into production, working with engineering and manufacturing teams Requirements • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Electromechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline • Relevant industry experience developing and integrating electromechanical hardware • Demonstrated experience integrating PCBs, electronic components, interconnects, and mechanical structures into functional, manufacturable hardware • Hands-on experience with PCB design and layout using Altium Designer, KiCad, OrCAD, or a comparable EDA tool • Proficiency with SolidWorks or equivalent 3D CAD software • Experience selecting electronic components and materials using datasheets, supplier resources, and distributor databases • Experience with hands-on hardware assembly, debugging, testing, and characterization • Experience using Python or a similar scripting language for test automation, data analysis, or engineering workflows • Strong practical problem-solving skills across electrical, mechanical, thermal, and manufacturing disciplines • Ability to work effectively in a hands-on development environment and collaborate across engineering and manufacturing teams Nice to have: • Experience with RF or microwave hardware, high-frequency interconnects, or signal integrity concepts • Experience with controlled-impedance PCB design, S-parameters, or VNA measurements • Familiarity with HFSS, CST, or similar electromagnetic simulation tools • Experience with hybrid, optoelectronic, semiconductor, or advanced electronic packaging • Experience with die attach, wire or ribbon bonding, hermetic packaging, laser welding, or fiber attachment • Experience with TEC-based thermal control or temperature-controlled electronic systems • Experience developing hardware for aerospace, defense, telecommunications, semiconductor, photonics, or other high-reliability applications • Familiarity with MIL-STD-883, Telcordia GR-468, or comparable qualification and reliability requirements • Experience transitioning engineering prototypes into production, including DFM, process development, yield improvement, and manufacturing support The offer • Based in Massachusetts • Hands-on ownership of hardware from design through production • Work on advanced electronic and optoelectronic products This role suits an engineer who’s equally comfortable with a PCB layout and a CAD model, and wants to build optoelectronic hardware from prototype to production.
