About the role:
We're looking for a creative and hands-on Advanced Development Engineer with a strong background in electro-mechanical systems to lead the design and development of breakthrough technologies for next-generation aquaculture solutions. This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of mechanical design, electronics integration, and real-world systems engineering.
Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you'll be responsible for owning early-stage development-from interpreting requirements and generating system concepts to delivering near-production-level prototypes ready for field testing. You'll operate independently in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment where your ability to think holistically and build practically will directly shape the future of sustainable food production.
What you'll be doing:
Leading the end-to-end development of innovative technologies, with a focus on concept generation, electro-mechanical design, and high quality functional prototyping.
Operating independently and proactively in a highly autonomous role, while maintaining alignment with strategic goals and engineering leadership.
Building and testing high quality physical prototypes to evaluate performance, validate ideas, and inform design iterations.
Applying a strong grasp of design principles and prototype manufacturing techniques across fabrication, plastic fabrication, machining (metal and plastic) and rapid protoyping.
Where required, ideally you will be able to produce CAD models, technical drawings, and supporting documentation using SolidWorks CAD.
Conducting design analysis,to ensure designs meet performance, cost, and safety targets.
Collaborating with software, mechanical and electrical teams to ensure overall system performance.
Contributing technical insight to proposals and product planning discussions.
Sharing knowledge and mentoring junior engineers to foster a culture of continuous improvement and innovation.
The skills and experience you need:
A degree (or equivalent experience) in Mechatronics, Electro-Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related field.
3-5 years of experience developing electro-mechanical products, from early concepts to near-production prototypes.
Proven ability to independently own product development lifecycles, including concept generation, prototyping, and iteration.
Practical experience with mechanical design for systems incorporating electronics, sensors, actuators, or control modules.
Strong prototyping and troubleshooting skills-comfortable building and refining integrated systems in the lab or field.
Working knowledge of manufacturing methods such as sheet metal fabrication, plastic molding, CNC machining, cabling/harnessing and rapid prototyping technologies.
Experience with design for assembly, environmental sealing, EMI considerations, and electrical-mechanical interface design.
Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to clearly convey ideas across interdisciplinary teams.
