We are looking for an experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer with strong hands-on expertise in designing phone cases, AirPods cases, laptop cases, and other injection-molded tech accessories.
The role requires deep knowledge of plastic product design, injection molding, tooling, snap-fit mechanisms, PC + TPU dual-material construction, and DFM/DFA. The engineer should be able to refine existing designs, improve mechanical locking systems, optimize products for mass production, and work closely with mold makers.
Key Requirements:
Experience in designing phone cases, AirPods cases, laptop cases, or similar consumer electronic accessories
Strong understanding of injection molding, tool design, draft angles, shrinkage, gating, ejection, and undercuts
Expertise in snap-fit, mechanical interlocking, and permanent locking mechanisms
Ability to create detailed 3D CAD models, engineering drawings, tolerances, and mold-ready designs
Knowledge of materials such as PC, TPU, ABS, and related plastic grades
Ability to perform or support DFM/DFA review, tolerance analysis, and basic structural validation
Experience working directly with tooling engineers and mold manufacturers
Deliverables may include:
Optimized CAD files
Engineering drawings with tolerances/GD&T
DFM/DFA feedback
Injection molding-ready product design
Snap-fit/interlock performance validation
Ideal candidate:
A senior engineer with 10+ years of mechanical design experience in injection-molded consumer products, preferably with direct experience in mobile accessories and protective tech cases.
