Jobs at Acorn Product Development, Inc.

Leads mechanical engineering teams developing robotics and automation products with multiple powered degrees of freedom. Responsibilities include system architecture, mechanical design, fabrication, testing, engineering analysis, integration, and manufacturing verification. Manages client-facing project budgets, schedules, specifications, resource planning, and deliverables while coordinating cross-functional engineers across offices.

Design and develop complex electromechanical products from concept through production. Responsibilities include defining requirements, creating detailed mechanical designs and production documentation, performing engineering analyses, collaborating with industrial design and UX teams, coordinating with vendors, testing prototypes and first articles, and preparing project and technical reports. The role is onsite in Waltham, Massachusetts and involves hands-on shop and laboratory work.

Design and develop complex electromechanical and robotic products from concept through production. Define requirements and hardware architectures, perform mechanical analyses, create production documentation, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, vendors, and clients, and test prototypes and first articles. Provide technical leadership, mentor junior engineers, support project planning, and develop molded, sheet metal, and machined components in a fast-paced product development environment.

Design and develop electromechanical products from concept to production using CAD and engineering analysis. Create production documentation, perform mechanical analyses (tolerance, FEA/CFD, strength, heat transfer, vibration), test prototypes, interface with vendors, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to meet regulatory and project objectives.

Lead mechanical engineering team to design, build, test, and release robotic and automated systems. Manage projects, budgets, schedules, and client interactions. Perform kinematics, structural, thermal, and tolerance analyses; select materials and components; oversee prototyping, system integration, motion control, and manufacturability to production.

Lead mechanical design and analysis for electromechanical and robotic products, mentor junior engineers, manage interdisciplinary projects, transition concepts to production, create documentation, interface with vendors, and test prototypes.

Senior mechanical engineer contractor to design and transition complex electromechanical products to production. Responsibilities include CAD model and 2D drawing development, tolerance analysis, FEA/CFD, component specification/sourcing, mechanism design, strength/heat transfer analysis, and hands-on system bring-up with cross-functional teams.
