Drive the creation of prototypes-ranging from rough mock-ups to precision builds-that communicate vision, function, and manufacturability.
Lead advanced development projects through R&D, validation, and transition into execution teams.
Apply rigorous engineering analysis (mechanical statics/dynamics, mechanisms, FEA, CFD, cost, and material selection) to inform design decisions.
Champion agile, iterative development methods to ensure speed without sacrificing quality.
Partner with internal teams, external suppliers, and global resources to develop prototypes and ensure manufacturability.
Influence cross-functional teams by integrating process improvements, best practices, and technical excellence into the development cycle.
Manage a diverse portfolio of projects, ensuring they meet cost, quality, and timeline goals.
What You'll Need to Succeed:
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering.
5-10 years of experience in product development, preferably with consumer products.
Proven ability to create, design, and build-from concept sketches to working prototypes.
Strong background in Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFM/DFA) and cost-conscious product development.
Advanced skills in CAD (SolidWorks preferred), including solid, surface, and sheet metal modeling.
Hands-on experience with prototype fabrication using both hand tools and machine tools.
Strong analytical skills with experience in mechanical analysis, FEA, and CFD.
Track record of technical innovation, with patents or novel product contributions preferred.
Comfortable leading as a technical SME while collaborating cross-functionally across disciplines (SW, FW, EE, ID, Quality, Operations).
Experience working with international suppliers and the ability to travel as needed.
Highly motivated, detail-oriented, and driven by curiosity, creativity, and craftsmanship.
Why You Will Love To Work Here:
Be part of the most disruptive force in outdoor cooking
Join a true team working towards a common goal
