🤖 Ready to help shape the future of AI at the edge? 🤖

At AI-Blox, we build high-performance, modular hardware for edge AI applications. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our team and to solve complex challenges around thermal management, part integration, and durability for our hardware products.

Your Mission

🚀 How you'll make an impact:

• Design and develop mechanical enclosures and internal layouts for electronic products
• Strong understanding of tolerance stack-up analysis (GD&T) to ensure seamless mechanical assembly, proper thermal contact, and reliable manufacturing tolerances
• Select and integrate thermal components such as heatsinks, fans, and thermal interface materials
• Create detailed 3D CAD models, 2D drawings, and BOMs for prototyping and manufacturing
• A strong understanding of
• Validate and optimize designs through hands-on testing, iteration, and continuous improvement
• Drive design reviews and support testing for certification, reliability, and environmental protection
• Contribute to sustainable product development by considering material choices, energy efficiency, and design for longevity and recyclability
