Mechanical Engineer

Job description

This position can be based in our Uniondale, New York or Boulder, Colorado office. FEI is seeking a mechanical engineer who thrives in environments where the path is not fully defined, the problems are new, and the solutions require creativity, rigor, and teamwork. Our products span precision oscillators, advanced atomic clocks, and emerging quantum‑sensing technologies. These systems demand thoughtful mechanical design, deep curiosity, and a willingness to explore new methods in analysis, testing, and manufacturing. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys learning, experimenting, collaborating across disciplines, and raising the bar on what is possible. We value engineers who take ownership, support the team beyond their formal responsibilities, and approach everyday tasks with pride and enthusiasm. What You Will Do: - Design mechanical components and assemblies for high‑reliability electronic systems, from concept through detailed CAD models and drawings. - Perform structural and thermal analysis using tools such as ANSYS Mechanical, Icepak, or equivalent numerical methods, complemented by hand calculations and first‑principles reasoning. - Prototype, test, and iterate on new d...
