About the Role

We are looking for a highly driven and detail-oriented Lead Mechanical Engineer with strong expertise in New Product Development (NPD) and New Product Introduction (NPI) to join our engineering team in Mumbai. The ideal candidate should have hands-on experience in designing and developing mechanical systems/subsystems for high-volume products, preferably from the Robotics, Consumer Electronics, or Electronics Manufacturing domain.

This role requires strong ownership across the complete product development lifecycle — from concept and feasibility to design validation and manufacturing readiness.

Key Responsibilities

- Lead the mechanical design and development of products/systems/subsystems from concept to production.
- Lead, mentor, and manage a small team of mechanical design engineers, ensuring effective task allocation, technical guidance, timely delivery, and overall team development.
- Ensure the design aligns with product architecture, functional requirements, quality, reliability, and cost objectives.
- Drive NPD/NPI activities, including prototype development, validation, pilot builds, and mass production readiness.
- Work closely with cross-functional teams including Electronics, Firmware, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Quality teams.
- Conduct concept studies, feasibility analysis, and introduce cutting-edge technologies/processes.
- Ensure designs comply with safety, reliability, and applicable regulatory standards.
- Perform structural design, tolerance analysis, hand calculations, and FEM/FEA analysis.
- Create and maintain detailed 3D CAD models, manufacturing drawings, EBOMs, and engineering documentation.




- Conduct DFMEA and proactively identify product and manufacturing risks.
- Drive DFM/DFA practices to optimize product manufacturability and assembly efficiency.
- Support vendor development, tooling discussions, and production issue resolution during ramp-up.
- Ensure modular integration consistency and product certification compliance.
- Define work breakdown structure, timelines, effort estimates, and cost assessments for assigned modules/projects.
- Maintain proper engineering documentation as per company and industry standards.
- Stay updated with emerging technologies, materials, and engineering practices.

Required Qualifications & Experience

- B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech in Mechanical or Mechatronics Engineering.
- 5–10 years of experience in mechanical design & development.
- Mandatory experience in NPD/NPI for mass-produced products.
- Prior experience in Robotics, Consumer Electronics, Electronics Manufacturing, or Medical Devices preferred.
- Strong expertise in:
- Structural design & hand calculations
- 3D CAD modeling and manufacturing drawings
- FEM/FEA analysis
- DFMEA, DFM/DFA, material selection, and EBOM creation

- Proficiency in SolidWorks, Creo/Pro-E, Solid Edge, or equivalent CAD tools.
- Exposure to manufacturing processes, tooling, and production engineering.
- Strong problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
- Knowledge of IEC 60601 or similar compliance standards is a plus.

Why Join Miko?

- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge consumer robotics products.
- Exposure to end-to-end product development and manufacturing scale-up.
