About this role
SharkNinja is a global product design and technology company known for its innovative lifestyle solutions. They are seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to drive the front-end innovation for their Corded/Cordless Products, focusing on developing prototypes and collaborating with cross-functional teams.
Responsibilities:
- Driving the front-end technology and feasibility roadmap for Corded/Cordless Products products, collaborating with engineering, industrial design, brand, and test kitchen teams across the US, UK, and China
- Building proof-of-concept rigs and functional prototypes to stress-test ideas early — before the business invests in full development
- Working across the full system: mechanical design, sensors, software, batteries, connectivity — you see the whole picture, not just your slice of it
- Communicating ideas rapidly through sketching, CAD layouts, 3D models, and physical prototypes
- Running design and engineering studies — solo and in teams — with the consumer experience as the north star at every stage
- Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to a team culture that treats failure as signal, not setback
- Staying close to IP development, identifying novel and inventive solutions alongside R&D
Requirements:
- BS in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or a closely related field
- 4–8+ years of experience in mechanical engineering or product design
- Hands-on experience designing electromechanical products in a product development environment
- Proficiency in SolidWorks or Creo
- Experience with plastic part design, including injection-molded, silicone, and rubber components
- Comfortable in the lab: building prototypes, running tests, reporting findings, and determining next steps
- Strong communicator — you can sketch an idea on a whiteboard and defend it in an engineering review
- Background in consumer goods or household appliances
- Experience designing sheet metal components
- Familiarity working with IP teams to identify novel or inventive solutions
