Mechanical Design Engineer

Job Description & Skill Requirement:

Key Responsibilities:

Design & Development:

Design, model, and prototype precision mechanical components, optical mounts, and housings for ophthalmic instruments using 3D CAD software (SolidWorks/Creo).

Opto-Mechanical Engineering:

Perform opto-mechanical design tasks, including lens barrel design, lens mounting techniques, and tolerance studies to maintain optical alignment.

Analysis & Simulation:

Conduct Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to analyse stress, thermal behaviour, and vibration, ensuring device reliability.

Documentation & Compliance:

Create, maintain, and manage technical documentation (specifications, drawings, BOMs) and ensure compliance with

FDA 21 CFR

820.30 and

ISO 13485

standards.

Prototyping & Testing:

Support prototype builds, design iterations, and validation testing to meet performance, safety, and regulatory requirements.

DFM/DFA:

Collaborate with manufacturing teams to optimize designs for manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA), including injection molding, plastics, and precision machining.

Risk Management:

Participate in Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA/FMEA) to minimize operational risks. Bachelor''s or master''s degree in mechanical engineering. Previous experience designing ophthalmic surgical tools or diagnostics. 10+ years of experience in mechanical design, preferably within the medical device or optical industry. Highly proficient in 3D CAD modelling software (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo). Hands-on experience with precision machining, injection molding, or small-part assembly. Strong understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). Experience with PLM software

Qualification:
