About BoonBoon is a wellness-first water purification brand built around one idea: Water For Every You. Our purifiers combine commercial-grade purification, mineral enhancement through life modes (Daily, Active, Brew), and WaterAI, which makes filter health and performance visible in the app.

In this role you are one of our Water Makers. You turn that promise into hardware that is quiet, beautiful in the home, and built to hold up every day. Your work decides how reliably a Boon purifier performs in real Indian homes, across very different water conditions.

Key responsibilitiesConcept and design

- Translate product briefs and consumer insights into engineering specifications, BOMs and target costs.
- Design and detail plastic, sheet-metal and mechanical parts for purifier housings, tanks, filter interfaces, taps and mounting.
- Build 3D models, 2D drawings with GD&T;, and tolerance stack-ups; run DFM and DFA reviews with suppliers.
- Integrate water-system components (RO membrane, UV/UF, mineral cartridges, pumps, solenoid valves, sensors, tubing) into compact, serviceable layouts.
- Work with electronics and firmware teams on PCB placement, wiring, sensor mounting and IoT/WaterAI hardware integration.

Prototyping and validation

- Build and test prototypes (3D printing, soft tooling, VMC parts) and lead design iterations.
- Plan and run DVP&R;: leak, pressure, burst, flow-rate, TDS rejection, life-cycle, drop, vibration and thermal tests.
- Run DFMEA and PFMEA, track actions to closure, and drive root-cause analysis (8D, 5-Why, fishbone) on failures.
- Support certification and compliance testing (BIS / IS 16240, food-grade material compliance, electrical safety).

Tooling, suppliers and launch





- Develop and approve injection-mould tools: tool design reviews, T0/T1 trials, mould-flow inputs and part sign-off.
- Identify and develop suppliers; release drawings, run FAI and PPAP-style part approvals.
- Drive pilot builds and production ramp-up with manufacturing and quality teams; set assembly SOPs and inspection standards.
- Own the project timeline through stage gates (concept, design freeze, tool kick-off, pilot, launch) and report risks early.

After launch

- Analyse field returns and service feedback, and lead cost-reduction and value-engineering (VA/VE) projects.
- Maintain engineering documentation, ECNs and BOM changes in PLM.

Required qualifications
- B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical, Mechatronics or Production Engineering (M.Tech is a plus).
- 3–6 years of hands-on NPD experience in consumer durables, home appliances, water purifiers or similar electromechanical products.
- At least one product taken from concept through tooling to mass production.
- Strong grounding in plastic part design: wall thickness, draft, ribs, bosses, snap-fits, ultrasonic and spin welding, sealing and leak-proof joints.
- Working knowledge of injection moulding, tool design reviews and supplier part approval.
- Experience planning and running product validation tests and reading the results with statistical rigour.

Skills and toolsArea





What we look for

CAD

SolidWorks, Creo or NX: part, assembly and surface modelling; drawing release

Engineering standards

GD&T; (ASME Y14.5), tolerance stack-up analysis

Simulation

Basic FEA and mould-flow interpretation

Quality tools

DFMEA/PFMEA, DVP&R;, 8D, Pareto, control plans

Materials

Food-grade plastics (PP, ABS, PC, POM), elastomers and seals

Fluid systems

Ways of working

Clear communication with design, electronics, sourcing and suppliers; ownership of deadlines

Positive to have

- Direct experience with RO, UV, UF or mineral-cartridge purifier systems.
- Exposure to BIS certification and NSF/ANSI 42, 53 or 58 testing.
- Familiarity with IoT-connected appliances, sensors (TDS, flow, level) and their mechanical integration.
- Experience with design for serviceability: tool-free filter changes and technician-friendly access.
- Knowledge of sheet-metal, die-casting or blow-moulding processes.
- An eye for industrial design and finish quality (CMF, texture, gloss, parting lines).

What success looks likeTimeframe

Outcome

First 3 months

Owns the design of one sub-system end to end; DFMEA and test plan approved

By 6 months

Design freeze and tool kick-off on schedule; supplier base for key parts in place

By 12 months

Product launched at target cost, with pilot-build yield and field-failure rate within plan

Ongoing measures: stage-gate dates met, BOM cost vs target, first-time-right tooling, validation pass rate, and field return rate in the first 90 days after launch.
