Pano is searching for its first full time Hardware Engineer to support the design, development, and testing of our next-generation Pano products deployed across the United States, Canada and Australia. You will be a versatile problem-solver, comfortable working across mechanical and electrical disciplines in a fast-paced, hands-on environment. Reporting to the Manager of NPI, you will contribute to the full product lifecycle from concept through production, gaining broad exposure to hardware engineering while working on meaningful technology that protects communities from wildfire. This is an opportunity to build foundational engineering skills in a successful, mission-driven startup environment.

  • Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies for Pano Stations, including CAD modeling, tolerance analysis, and design for manufacturing (DFM).
  • Support electrical testing, validation, and debugging activities including running test procedures, troubleshooting circuits, and collecting performance data.
  • Build and assemble prototypes, conduct hands-on testing, and iterate on designs based on test results and field feedback.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Electrical Engineering, Firmware, Supply Chain, Field Operations, and Manufacturing to integrate mechanical and electrical subsystems.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation including test reports, assembly instructions, design specifications, and design validation plans.
  • Support NPI (New Product Introduction) builds and PRQ (Post Ramp Qual) efforts, including build readiness activities and material validation.
  • Assist with vendor selection, component sourcing, and manufacturing support activities to enable successful production ramps.
  • Participate in design reviews and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across hardware development processes.
  • Ability to travel domestically and internationally as needed (0 to 20% at times).
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related engineering discipline required.
  • 0-2 years of professional experience in hardware development.
  • Proficiency with CAD software (SolidWorks, Creo, or similar).
  • Basic understanding of electrical circuits and ability to read schematics.
  • Hands-on experience with prototyping, testing equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies), and debugging.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with attention to detail and ability to work independently.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to explain technical concepts clearly.
  • Ability to work as part of a geographically dispersed team, across multiple time zones.
  • Experience using collaboration tools such as Jira, Confluence, or similar.
  • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office.
  • Coursework or project experience in electrical engineering, electronics, or circuit design.
  • Familiarity with embedded systems, sensors, or electromechanical products.
  • Experience with finite element analysis (FEA) or thermal simulation tools.
  • Knowledge of manufacturing processes (injection molding, sheet metal, PCB assembly).
  • Exposure to design validation, reliability testing, and environmental testing methods.
  • Programming or scripting experience (Python, MATLAB, etc.).
  • Experience working in fast-paced startup or NPI environments.
  • In addition to base salary, this position is eligible for stock options.
  • We also provide comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, a matching 401(k) plan, and unlimited paid time off.
