About PRAD
PRAD is a product development and engineering organization building certified, manufacturable hardware for industrial safety and medical device markets. We build products we own and certify to applicable global standards, with the manufacturing and quality systems required for repeatable at -scale production. Role Summary
PRAD runs multiple hardware programs in parallel in industrial safety and medical devices. Programs are at different stages, from early concept to pilot production. This role is responsible for mechanical design across these programs, from concept through tooling, certification, and production. Responsibilities
Mechanical design of enclosures, mechanisms, and structural components across PRAD's product lines
DFM/DFA for injection-molded plastic parts - part design, gate/parting line strategy, draft, tolerancing, tool-friendly geometry
Ownership of designs through tooling: working with mold makers and vendors, T0/T1 sample review, dimensional and functional sign-off
Material selection and enclosure design for certified/regulated products - sealing, ingress protection, and category-specific constraints (e.g. flame path for ATEX-rated products, biocompatibility/cleanability for medical devices)
Structural and environmental validation: drop, vibration, thermal cycling, ingress testing - planning tests and interpreting results
Design for manufacturability and assembly across production processes
Tolerance stack-up analysis across multi-part assemblies
Coordination with electronics, firmware,
and industrial design to resolve mechanical-electrical integration issues before tooling
Documentation: design history files, drawings, BOMs, ECR/ECN process
Working across multiple active programs concurrently, re-prioritizing as certification, tooling, or commercial milestones shift Required Experience
Minimum 6+ years designing mechanical enclosures/assemblies for a physical product that shipped at volume
Hands-on injection molding experience: T0/T1 reviews, tool modification decisions, understanding of cost drivers in tooling and part design
Has taken a product from prototype through pilot to production
Expert-level SolidWorks or equivalent parametric CAD; GD&T; fluency
Tolerance stack-up analysis on real multi-component assemblies
Experience with at least one regulated or certified product category (ATEX/IECEx, IP rating, medical device, or equivalent)
Direct experience working with contract manufacturers or vendors, including evaluating and pushing back on DFM feedback Preferred
Exposure to more than one regulated product category (e.g. both hazardous-area industrial and medical)
Experience designing for low-volume-to-scale production transitions
Battery-powered handheld or wearable device design (sealing, thermal, drop survivability)
Ability to work across concurrent programs at different maturity stages without loss of design rigor PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR WORK PORTFOLIO ALONG WITH YOUR CV. Please share your CV to
