Senior Mechanical Engineer (f/m/d)

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential quantum computing organization in Hamburg that is developing cutting-edge computational systems. Our talent team is seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to take technical ownership of complex mechanical designs from concept through manufacturing and validation.

This is a hands-on engineering role requiring strong mechanical fundamentals, extensive practical design experience, and advanced CAD capabilities. You will work on high-precision components and assemblies for next-generation computing hardware.

Responsibilities

• Take technical ownership of complex mechanical components, assemblies, and subsystems from concept through manufacturing, assembly, and validation
• Develop robust mechanical designs for high-precision scientific and industrial equipment
• Create and maintain high-quality CAD parts, assemblies, manufacturing drawings, BOMs, and technical documentation
• Perform tolerance analysis and define appropriate fits, interfaces, geometric tolerances, and dimensional requirements
• Translate system-level requirements into clear mechanical requirements, interfaces, and manufacturable design solutions
• Define manufacturing requirements and work closely with suppliers on manufacturability, materials, tolerances, and quality
• Develop, test, and improve prototypes and actively contribute to design reviews and technical decision-making

What We're Looking For

Required:

• BSc or MSc degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Precision Engineering, or closely related discipline
• Minimum 8 years of professional mechanical engineering experience
• Advanced professional proficiency in SolidWorks (mandatory)
• Demonstrable experience designing complex mechanical assemblies, bespoke machinery, or technically demanding systems
• Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals including manufacturing methods, materials, tolerance analysis, GD&T, DfM/DfA, structural design, and mechanical interfaces
• Strong ownership of mechanical designs and technical decisions

Valued:

• CSWP – Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional certification
• Experience in scientific instrumentation, semiconductor equipment, aerospace, precision engineering, special-purpose machinery, optics, or similar fields
• Experience with high-precision systems and/or exposure to vacuum, cryogenic, thermal, optical, or vibration-sensitive applications
• Excellent engineering judgment and ability to identify and improve weak or risky design solutions
• Practical understanding of how components are manufactured, assembled, tested, and serviced
