Mechanical Engineer II - Outdoor Heated
SharkNinja | Needham, MA | On-Site 4+ Days Per Week
Build things people actually use

Most engineers spend years working on one subsystem of one product. Here, you'll take a product from a sketch on a whiteboard to something sitting in millions of homes - and you'll do it in months, not years.

SharkNinja's NPD team designs the products that made us a household name. As a Mechanical Engineer II, you'll own real hardware: designing mechanisms, cutting parts, breaking prototypes, figuring out why they broke, and making the next one better. Our labs, machine shops, and prototyping resources are steps from your desk, not a purchase order away.

If you like being the person who says "give me two days and I'll have something we can test" - read on.

What you'll do

- Design and build. Take new products from early concept through production - mechanisms, electromechanical assemblies, and the integration of motors, sensors, actuators, PCBs, and controls.

- Prototype fast. Use our in-house labs, rapid prototyping tools, and supplier network to get functional hardware in hand quickly, then iterate on what you learn.

- Solve the hard ones. Own hands-on troubleshooting and root-cause analysis when a mechanism, system, or first-of-its-kind idea doesn't behave.

- Make it real. Translate product requirements into CAD models, drawings, tolerances, and specs that suppliers can actually build to.

- Make it last. Drive design validation, reliability testing, and DFM/DFA so what ships holds up in the real world.

- Work across the room. Partner daily with EE, Industrial Design, Product Development, NPD, and test teams - this is a collaborative build, not a handoff chain.

What you'll bring

- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field

- ~2-4 years in product development or design (if you're close to this range and can show the work, we want to hear from you)

- Real hands-on prototyping experience - you've built and tested physical hardware, not just modeled it

- Experience designing for injection molded plastics or sheet metal for a mass produced product.

- Proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks, Creo, NX, or similar)

- Comfort with fast-moving, iterative work where requirements evolve

Nice to have

- Consumer products, appliances, or high-volume manufacturing experience

- Rapid prototyping methods: 3D printing, machining, soft tooling

- Simulation tools such as FEA or CFD

- Portfolio for the team would review would be a plus

You'll thrive here if

- You'd rather build the thing than debate the thing

- Ambiguity reads as opportunity, not risk

- Your default when something's unclear is "let's figure it out"

- You care how a product feels in someone's hands, not just whether it passes spec

What we offer

- Products you can point to on a shelf and say "I designed that"

- Ownership from day one - no waiting your turn

- Hands-on facilities: labs, prototyping, machining, and test, all in-house

Apply

Applications take under 10 minutes. If you meet most - not all - of what's above and you're excited about building consumer hardware, apply. We'd rather see your work than a perfect checklist.

SharkNinja is an equal opportunity employer. We're committed to building a team that reflects the people we design for.
