Location: Seattle
Workplace: Onsite
Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: Field Service, Maintenance & Skilled Trades

Key Responsibilities

  • •Own the mechanical definition of complex PCB designs, including board outline, mounting scheme, connector and component placement constraints, and keep-out requirements.
  • •Define and implement mechanical features needed to support large, high-density boards, including stiffening strategies, support locations, and structural elements.
  • •Work closely with system mechanical engineers to ensure alignment between board design and system-level integration, including trays, enclosures, and rack interfaces.
  • •Partner with thermal engineering to support cooling solutions, including placement and mechanical integration of heat sinks, cold plates, and related mounting structures.
  • •Collaborate with electrical design teams to co-develop layouts that balance mechanical constraints with routing and packaging needs, including connector placement and board topology.
  • •Engage with fabrication, assembly, and reliability teams to ensure designs are manufacturable and meet mechanical and reliability requirements.
  • •Contribute to analysis and resolution of mechanical issues such as deflection, support, and structural integrity, working with cross-functional teams as needed.
  • •Support bring-up and validation by helping diagnose and resolve mechanical integration or reliability issues observed in prototypes or production
  • •Contribute to board-level thermal design by supporting heat transfer from components through the PCB into cooling solutions, including consideration of stackup, thermal vias, and interface to cold plates
  • •Develop and document mechanical design specifications, including requirements for board features, interfaces, and integration constraints to guide design and manufacturing

Key Requirements

  • •Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering
  • •Experience with mechanical design of electronic assemblies or PCB-based systems
  • •Proficiency with CAD tools (Creo, SolidWorks, or similar) for designing board features and layout
  • •Strong collaboration across electrical, thermal, manufacturing, and reliability teams
  • •Experience contributing to board-level thermal design and integration with cooling solutions (heat sinks, cold plates)
