**About Orion**
Orion is building the next generation of intelligent sleep technology—thermal regulation, advanced sensing, and beautifully engineered hardware designed to improve sleep quality and long\-term health. We’re ramping toward mass production and scaling globally. Mechanical Engineering is core to how our system functions, feels, and performs night after night.
**About the Role**
We’re looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to own and architect critical mechanical systems across the Orion Sleep System. This role operates at a system level, driving architecture, design quality, manufacturability, and execution from early concept through mass production. You’ll work deeply across thermal systems, fluid routing, enclosures, CMF, mechanisms, and high\-precision assemblies, while influencing engineering standards, design direction, and execution velocity. This is a hands\-on technical leadership role embedded with Operations, Quality, EE, FW, Reliability, and our global manufacturing partners.
**What You’ll Own**
* Lead design of TEC\-based thermal systems, fluid routing, enclosures, and integrated mechanical assemblies across the Orion Sleep System * Own detailed CAD, tolerancing, GD\&T, and stack\-up analysis * Drive CMF alignment, surface quality, and tooling readiness * Translate system requirements into robust, production\-ready mechanical designs * Work directly with global manufacturing partners across plastics, sheet metal, machining, and final assembly * Guide tooling development, design changes, and build readiness for EVT / DVT / PVT and MP * Support on\-site factory builds, failure analysis, and process optimization * Define and execute validation plans for durability, lifecycle reliability, thermal stability, noise, fit, and cosmetic quality * Partner with Reliability, QA, and Operations to drive root\-cause analysis and corrective actions * Maintain drawings, specifications, ECOs, and build documentation * Collaborate closely with EE and FW on system integration, routing constraints, and sensor placement * Partner with Product, Ops, and Supply Chain to balance cost, schedule, and manufacturability * Lead design reviews and technical trade\-offs with clarity and ownership
**What We’re Looking For**
* 7–10\+ years of mechanical engineering experience in consumer hardware or integrated electromechanical systems * Proven system\-level ownership across complex mechanical architectures * Deep expertise in plastics, sheet metal, mechanisms, thermal systems, and high\-volume manufacturing * Expert\-level CAD proficiency (SolidWorks or equivalent) with strong DFM/DFA and GD\&T skills * Track record of taking products from concept EVT DVT PVT MP * Hands\-on engineering mindset—comfortable in labs, factories, and design reviews * Strong technical communication and ability to influence across teams without direct authority * Experience with thermoelectric (TEC/Peltier) systems or thermal\-regulation platforms is a plus * Experience working with Asian contract manufacturers is a plus * Strong sensitivity to CMF and cosmetic quality standards is a plus
**Why Orion**
Mechanical Engineering at Orion is a first\-order function. As a Staff Engineer, you’ll help define the technical foundation of a category\-defining sleep platform and influence how the product scales globally. Your work will directly impact product performance, customer experience, and long\-term platform strategy.
