Positioned within the Mechanical Engineering team, this is a high visibility, high impact role in achieving Dexcom's product performance and reliability goals through delivering functional excellence in the research, development, and characterization of enabling technologies/designs & their integration to a product ecosystem.

Where you come in:

• As a technical leader in the mechanical engineering characterization team, you will deliver, lead, and own the design, testing, packaging, and system integration for the mechanical engineering function for a product.
  
• You will integrate designs effectively with the rest of the product sub-systems to achieve a successful launch that meets reliability, cost, and performance targets.
  
• You identify, communicate, and address mechanical tradeoffs with other subsystems and solve integration challenges as part of cross-functional working teams.
  
• You will lead and own technical problem solving for mechanical systems
  
• You will develop and manage strong relationships and enhance communication with upstream technology research teams and downstream product development process recipients (Design Verification, Operations, Commercial) to enable end-to-end concurrent engineering as a keystone of product design, in collaboration with project management, and product owner teams.
  

What makes you successful:

• You have extensive design and testing experience in the medical device or consumer electronics industry, working in a high-volume market.
  
• You bring depth of engineering knowledge and system integration experience in a multidisciplinary product ecosystem (examples below)

    • Component and subassembly vendor/supplier capabilities assessment and partnership development
      
  • Injection molding and/or design for injection molded components, including materials and polymer chemistry familiarity
    
• You have a track record of delivering technical excellence, meeting timelines for development, translating technology to design at scale, and executing projects as a technical leader with regular visibility to senior management.
  
• You thrive in environments where there is ambiguity or uncertainty in product requirements and have a willingness to try and test new ideas, coupled with a track record of success in innovation and intellectual property development in a fast-paced R&D environment.
  
• You exercise judgment within defined procedures and policies to determine appropriate action.
  
• You have a proven ability to organize, analyze, and interpret data to generate insights and conclusions
  
• You have excellent communication (written and verbal), collaboration, personal interaction and liaison skills.
  
• For you, engineering excellence is a top priority, and you achieve that not only through your work but influence that in collaboration with others as well
  
• You have experience utilizing structured problem solving/root cause investigation methodologies to de-bug and solve complex high volume design and assembly challenges
  

What you'll get:

• A front row seat to life changing CGM technology. Learn about our brave #dexcomwarriors community.
  
• A full and comprehensive benefits program.
  
• Growth opportunities on a global scale.
