Simplehuman
The Mechanical Engineer will own the mechanical development of consumer electronics products from concept through mass production, translating industrial design into robust, manufacturable architectures and integrating electromechanical components. The role involves creating production-ready CAD, conducting prototyping, testing, and failure analysis, and collaborating with cross-functional teams and suppliers to drive product launches.
Simplehuman designs durable, thoughtfully engineered tools that make people more efficient at home, using innovation and technology to streamline daily life. Their product philosophy rejects disposable “fast fashion” in favor of long‑lasting items they use themselves and are proud to share. The company’s range includes kitchen and bath hardware—trash cans and liners, sensor and manual soap dispensers, mirrors, and organizers—built for practical, elegant performance. Simplehuman sells globally through region‑specific sites and emphasizes quality, functionality, and smart design.
