Mechanical Engineer – Acoustic AI Systems

About the role

Omnisent is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to develop and test acoustic‑AI hardware. You will work on aerial and robotic platforms, build test rigs, and prototype enclosures that balance acoustic performance, thermal management, durability and manufacturability.

Key responsibilities

• Design, assemble and modify aerial and robotic platforms used for system testing.
• Build mechanical test rigs and fixtures for acoustic, RF and structural evaluations.
• Plan and execute controlled‑lab experiments, collect data and document results.
• Rapidly prototype using FDM, SLA, SLS, CNC machining and water‑jet cutting.
• Contribute to enclosure and component designs that meet acoustic, thermal and durability requirements.
• Maintain product lifecycle tasks such as BOM updates, revision tracking and test documentation.
• Prepare fixtures and prototypes for external testing houses and manufacturing partners.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to bring deep‑tech products from concept to deployment.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or a related discipline.
• Strong foundation in mechanical design and manufacturing processes.
• Hands‑on, practical mindset with experience in prototyping and testing.
• Organised working style with attention to documentation and design traceability.
• Excellent communication skills in English (German a plus).
• EU work authorization.

Required skills

• Proficiency with CAD tools such as SolidWorks, Fusion 360 or Onshape.
• Experience with additive manufacturing methods (FDM, SLA, SLS).
• Experience with subtractive methods (CNC machining, water‑jet cutting).
• Familiarity with finite‑element analysis or other simulation tools.

What we offer

• Highly competitive cash compensation and virtual stock options.
• Fast‑paced environment with real responsibility and accelerated learning.
• Opportunity to make a tangible impact on acoustic sensing technology.
• Collaborative, mission‑driven team shaping the future of intelligent sound perception.
