Your Role This Job is on-site in Boulder, CO This is a Fixed Term (6 months with possibility of extension) Employment. The Position: Mechanical engineers at frog are embedded in the design team to deliver innovative design solutions to problems that seem impossible. While we do rethink traditional products, our work goes beyond the expected to work across scales and product categories, from consumer products to transportation to store pop-ups and city scale architectures to physically mediated experiences. We brainstorm concepts, build evaluative prototypes, study emerging technologies, architect products, create manufacturing strategies, and ensure that products reflect the design intent through production - all this while evaluating, communicating, and balancing conflicting project requirements. We collaborate with frogs, clients, suppliers, and partners. We ensure products are feasible, yet as a team, we are highly collaborative across disciplines, welcome new perspectives, and challenge each other to make sure that our work shines. The ideal candidate will be excited about the evolution of design: we are no longer just designing isolated objects, but elements of an increasingly large and complex connected ecosystem. The ideal candidate will champion the idea that for design to succeed in today's complex world, we can no longer isolate hardware from software from services - meaningful, impactful design is a holistic endeavor. This is the backdrop against which our mechanical engineering must contribute and fit into. This Role: This is an exciting on-site role with our client in Boulder, CO. You'll be embedded full-time working directly alongside our client's internal softgoods design and engineering teams. You'll bring the prototyping lifecycle to life end-to-end: turning early concepts into high-fidelity, production-representative samples through hands-on fabrication, defining the prototyping process for small build quantities, feeding what you learn on the floor back into tooling and process improvements, and partnering with test engineering to prove they perform. This is hands-on work - expect as much time in the lab as at the CAD workstation, with build iterations turning around in days. If you love the challenge of engineering rigor applied to materials that bend, stretch, and breathe, this is it. The Contribution: 347Innovate347. Solve problems and address whatever challenge may arise, including the unique constraints softgoods materials bring to design and manufacturing. 347Conduct core hands-on engineering tasks347, such as design, prototyping, analysis, 3D CAD modeling, and documentation. 347Help develop tooling and fixture design concepts347 for softgoods components (textiles, silicone, leather, films, synthetics, adhesives, and/or soft polymers), applying materials knowledge to troubleshoot design and fabrication issues. 347Engineer and hand-fabricate proof-of-concept prototypes347 (cutting, sewing, bonding, and assembling materials and components), defining the prototyping process for small build quantities. 347Prepare cut/print files and operate specialized machinery347 (including softgoods machinery) as a core part of day-to-day work. 347Support tooling design and fabrication, and part/assembly CAD347, when needed. Qualifications & Experience You Are: Someone who wants to influence their own development. You're looking for a company where you have the opportunity to pursue your interests across functions and geographies, and where a job title is not considered the final definition of who you are, but the starting point. You bring to the organization the following competencies: 347BS in Mechanical Engineering or Industrial Design, or equivalent hands-on fabrication experience. 3473+ years of hands-on fabrication or prototyping experience with consumer electronics, softgoods, or related industries. 347Knowledge of the product development process (including research, ideation, prototyping, analysis, concept evaluation, engineering, manufacturing). 347Comfort stepping into hands-on fabrication and operating specialized equipment (e.g., sewing, cutting) as a core part of daily work. 347Manufacturing processes and design constraints, including injection molding, machining, and softgoods (textiles, films, synthetics, leather, adhesives). 347Experience with Design for Manufacturability (DFM)/Design for Assembly (DFA) and First Article Inspection (FAI). 347Ability to read technical drawings and documentation, including GD&T and mechanical drawings (ASME Y14.5). 347Passion for design and creating products that resonate with people. 347Self-motivated, excellent communicator, and a collaborative, fearless, positive team player who thrives balancing great design with short deadlines and contributing beyond your defined role.
