Sr. Mechanical Design Engineer - Onsite
About The Position
Medtronic is developing next-generation X-ray imaging technologies for interventional and image-guided procedures. The mechanical engineering team designs, integrates, verifies, and supports the lifecycle of complex capital equipment that combines mechanical, electrical, and software technologies to deliver reliable clinical performance. The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer will serve as a key technical contributor in development of a next-generation X-ray imaging system. The role leads mechanical engineering projects and workstreams across concept development, detailed design, system integration, verification, and product implementation. It requires technical judgment, ownership, and collaboration with engineering, quality, manufacturing, suppliers, subcontractors, and other partners to deliver robust mechanical solutions for complex medical technology systems. The position is based in Boxborough, Massachusetts and requires onsite presence four days per week for hands-on design, prototyping, testing, and cross-functional collaboration.
