Role Description We are seeking a creative, hands-on Senior Mechanical Research Engineer with significant vibration and dynamics experience to lead complex mechanical sensing problems on edge grid intelligence products with real-world impact. You will become an expert in how our grid sensor signals - accelerometer, IMU, and other mechanical-measurement signals - behave in the real world across diverse infrastructure. You will investigate sensing performance via exploratory data analysis, dynamics modeling coupled with bench and full-scale testing. You will also support design improvements, and validate improvements using test infrastructure you develop. You will define mechanical sensing requirements, develop measurement-chain improvements, and help mature new mechanical sensing capabilities. The focus is on understanding the mechanical phenomena that affect the grid, including measurement performance, validation, and technology transfer, rather than product design or implementation. This describes the ideal candidate; many of us have picked up this expertise along the way. Even if you meet only part of this list, we encourage you to apply!
