Description du poste

Lead technically by doing. Join our Design Engineering team as a highly experienced individual contributor. You will take on challenging mechanical design problems yourself, from concepts and CAD models to manufacturing drawings, prototypes and tested hardware, while helping the wider team make strong technical decisions. As a Principal Design Engineer, you are a hands-on member of our Design Engineering team, designing Climeworks’ CO2 collectors, the heart of our direct air capture plant. Improving how they perform, are manufactured and scale is central to the future success of DAC. Mechanical concept & product design: You personally turn new concepts into robust physical products: developing mechanical concepts, creating CAD models, designing components and complete collector assemblies, producing manufacturing drawings, and supporting hardware through fabrication, assembly and testing. Engineering problem-solving & risk reduction: Your experience helps you find the right solutions faster, anticipate problems early and reduce risk before issues reach manufacturing or testing. CO2 collector design: You take mechanical systems from requirements and concepts through to detailed, manufacturable designs. You develop solutions, perform engineering calculations and make the decisions needed to create robust industrial hardware. First-principles engineering: You use experience and first-principles reasoning to identify risks early, evaluate alternatives quickly and converge o
