Job Description

The Mechanical Engineering Manager leads Fleetzero's product design, testing, and production efforts.

• Oversee design and testing of core ship systems, including propulsion battery modules, enclosures, thermal management, and structural vessel integration, cargo securing, lifting and hoisting, and other key marine equipment
• Lead the team in developing and improving the production system, including robotic arms, laser welders, and robotic and manual assembly.
• Collaborate across electrical, marine, and software teams
• Manage project timelines, resources, budgets, and supplier relationships
• Support the opening of new production facilities
  
  
  

Qualifications

• Track record of managing people in hazardous environments
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
• 10+ years of mechanical engineering experience, including 3+ years in leadership roles
• Experience in marine engineering, energy storage systems, or automotive preferred
• Proficiency with design tools such as SolidWorks
• Shop floor fluency (welding, cutting, turning, milling, additive mfg., etc.)
• Strong first-principles engineering knowledge, including a basic understanding of material properties, an understanding of practical physics, heat flow, and statics and mechanics
