It is a healing technology that can be utilized by wellness clinics and inside the home. Our clients include specialty spas and clinics, sports teams, and individuals who are biohackers or athletes.\nWe are a small team with a startup culture. After our first full year shipping a finished product on the market, we’ve shown strong growth. Our team is made up of engineers, health professionals, and startup entrepreneurs.\nAs we continue expanding, this role offers hands-on experience, opportunities to grow into leadership, and the chance to make a tangible impact by developing and delivering cutting-edge wellness technology. You’ll collaborate across disciplines to innovate and shape technologies that enhance well-being for our clients.\nWhat is this role and why does it exist?\nThe Ammortal Chamber is a complex electromechanical product, and we are scaling production significantly. Getting from engineering development to repeatable, high-quality production takes a dedicated owner who keeps design, manufacturing, and quality moving in step.\nThe NPI Engineer owns that transition. This role is the primary technical interface between Product Engineering and our contract manufacturing partners, driving manufacturing readiness from early design through prototype, validation, pilot, and production builds. Every Chamber that ships well-built and on time is a person or a community that gets to experience what we've made.\nResponsibilities\nContract Manufacturer Interface: Serve as the primary engineering interface with contract manufacturers and key manufacturing suppliers. Coordinate prototype, pilot, and production builds with internal engineering teams and external manufacturing partners.\nNPI Planning and Build Control: Develop and maintain the NPI plan from prototype builds through production launch and ramp. Coordinate engineering builds and ensure build objectives, configurations, materials, documentation, and issues are controlled.\nDFM/DFA Leadership: Lead DFM/DFA reviews with Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, suppliers, and manufacturing partners. Identify manufacturing risks early and drive resolution before production release.\nManufacturing Requirements and Test Strategy: Develop manufacturing requirements for assembly processes, fixtures, tooling, programming, calibration, and production testing. Develop manufacturing-test strategy in collaboration with Electrical and Firmware Engineering.\nDocumentation and Configuration Control: Coordinate BOM readiness, approved components, manufacturing documentation, drawings, work instructions, and engineering changes with appropriate owners. Ensure engineering changes are properly communicated and implemented by manufacturing partners.\nQuality Systems and Readiness: Establish production acceptance criteria and manufacturing quality controls with the contract manufacturer. Support PFMEA, control plans, process validation, first-article activities, and production-readiness reviews. Support supplier qualification and technical evaluation of manufacturing processes.\nIssue Resolution and Ramp Metrics: Maintain build issue lists and drive root-cause and corrective-action closure. Track yield, defects, rework, cycle time, and manufacturing issues during ramp.\nServiceability and Configuration Consistency: Drive serviceability, replaceable-assembly strategy, service disconnects, component identification, maintenance, and field-replacement considerations into product design. Coordinate with Verification, Compliance, and Quality functions to ensure production configurations remain consistent with validated product configurations.\nSkills to Excel\nOwnership Across the Handoff\nYou keep engineering intent intact from design through production, and you drive problems to closure rather than just tracking them.\nManufacturing Fluency\nYou understand DFM/DFA, assembly processes, fixtures, tooling, production testing, and configuration control well enough to guide design decisions.\nStructured Problem Solving\nYou use root-cause analysis, 8D-style problem solving, PFMEA, and control plans to resolve issues systematically.\nPartner Communication\nYou build trusted relationships with contract manufacturers and suppliers while holding a clear line on quality.\nCross-Functional Range\nYou move comfortably across Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, Systems, Quality, Operations, and Supply Chain.\nRequirements\nWhat Technical Knowledge Do You Need to Perform in This Role?\nRequired\nDFM/DFA\nBOM management, ECOs, and configuration control\nEngineering drawings and manufacturing documentation\nAssembly processes, fixtures, tooling, and production testing\nPFMEA, control plans, and process validation\nRoot-cause analysis and 8D-style problem solving\nFirst-article inspection and production-readiness reviews\nPreferred\nManufacturing-test strategy and programming/calibration processes\nSupplier qualification\nYield, defect, and cycle-time tracking during ramp\nRegulated-product quality practices\nQualifications (Must haves)\nBS in Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering, or equivalent technical discipline\n4+ years of NPI, manufacturing, or product-development experience with complex electromechanical products\nDemonstrated experience taking physical products from engineering prototypes through production launch\nExperience working directly with contract manufacturers and external suppliers\nStrong understanding of DFM/DFA, BOMs, ECOs, drawings, assembly processes, fixtures, tooling, production testing, and configuration control\nExperience supporting engineering validation, design validation, pilot, and production builds\nWorking knowledge of PFMEA, control plans, root-cause analysis, 8D-style problem solving, and manufacturing quality methods\nComfortable working across Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, Systems, Quality, Operations, and Supply Chain\nQualifications (Nice to haves)\nExperience with low-to-medium-volume complex electromechanical equipment (particularly relevant)\n\nRegulated-product experience\n\nBenefits\nPay, Location, Hours\nPay Range: $125,000-$147,970\nBenefits: 80% of health, dental, and vision insurance covered\nEquity: 15,000 options vesting over 4 years with a 1 year cliff\nLocation: Remote, some
