A little paragraph about Why SST is the greatest workplace and how you would be missing out big time if you are not going to apply to join a team of fun people.
Mechanical Design Engineer
Join our team and design the best tools on the planet!
We are searching for an experienced mechanical design engineer – someone who will work alongside our lead mechanical engineer (Baran), as well our talented industrial designer (Patrick), to help bring our next generation of tools to market.
The mechanical design engineer position will require a mix of industrial design soft skills , in addition to mechanical engineering hard skills
Our ideal hire would be able to take control of a project from start to finish:
1. Contributing to a products concept drawings and feature list
2. Turning concepts into mechanically engineered and manufacturable product
3. Delivering 3D models and technical drawings
4. Test initial prototypes and make design refinements
4. Monitor production of first batch
As part of 6-person team team your skills, contributions, and personality matter. As such, there are plenty of growth opportunities professionally, financially, in skill, and in project focus – we want you to grow alongside the company.
What you will work on (with the team):
Product ideation: Contribute to our brainstorms where we decide which products we will develop next, and discuss the project goals
Mechanical Design: After we solidify the functional features & ornamental design of our products – we switch gears into mechanically designing the tool, with material and manufacturing considerations applied.
Product Prototyping + Analysis: Prototyping is an important phase of our product development. We analyze dimensions, tolerances, appearances, and of course function – before sending revisions to our manufacturing partners for the next prototype.
Product Production: Once we’re ready for production, we organize timelines and production goals – then manage the progress. We generally have 2-3 prototype runs before we jump into bulk production orders.

Ability to steer a project’s production: including manufacturing decision-making; production, labor, and material calculations; monitoring production schedules; estimating future requirements.
Added bonuses:
Experience in Curvature/Nurb modeling software (Blender, Rhino)
Previous experience working in a D2C Product Start Up
Well developed portfolio of product / Mechanical design work
If you’re interested reach out with a resume, & a preferably a sample project portfolio ! We are looking to bring on the right candidate immediately :)
