Description

  • Own Dropbox hardware execution across mechanical, electrical, test, technician, integration, validation, and release-readiness work.
  • Lead system-level tradeoffs across throughput, reliability, safety, installability, manufacturability, serviceability, regulatory impact, and cost.
  • Drive the hardware program from prototype through production-intent design, including mechanisms, enclosure, sensing, harnessing, power, electronics, and test coverage.
  • Build the hardware team operating system, including priorities, staffing, technical reviews, issue triage, design gates, DVP&R, build planning, and escalation paths.
  • Manage technical risk across moving mechanisms, dynamic harnesses, motor/sensor architecture, package handoff, safety, environmental exposure, and field service.
  • Partner with firmware, autonomy, RF, cloud, operations, manufacturing, supply chain, regulatory, and customer-facing teams to deploy the system at partner sites.
  • Create validation evidence for mechanical safety, electrical safety, environmental robustness, package quality, site compatibility, and operational reliability.
  • Lead root-cause analysis and corrective actions for design, test, production, and field issues.
  • Hire, coach, and manage a multidisciplinary team of mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, test engineers, and technicians.
  • Make clear decisions when balancing speed, robustness, complexity, cost, and future extensibility.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience leading multidisciplinary hardware teams in fast product development cycles.
  • Outstanding mechanical and electrical system judgment with enough depth to challenge architecture, test plans, and failure-mode assumptions.
  • Experience with electromechanical products involving motion, sensing, harnessing, safety interlocks, environmental exposure, and production validation.
  • Ability to manage hardware development from architecture through builds, test, supplier engagement, manufacturing handoff, and field support.
  • Strong product judgment around user experience, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost.
  • Ability to build team structure, clarify ownership, and turn ambiguous technical work into executable plans.
  • Comfort operating across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, operations, regulatory, and leadership stakeholders.
  • Clear written and verbal communication, especially around technical risk, decision logs, trade studies, and launch readiness.
  • Bias toward evidence, including test data, prototyping, design reviews, failure analysis, and explicit acceptance criteria.
