As a Mechanical Engineer on our team, you will have the opportunity to work hands-on with the development of our next-generation X-ray detectors — from requirements definition all the way to production handover and through to sustaining engineering. We are looking for an adaptive engineer who thrives at the center of complex cross‑functional programs, collaborating closely with electronics, systems, manufacturing, and product teams, and effectively balancing performance, cost, schedule, and manufacturability. This is a full-time role offered in a hybrid format, which means few days’ office presence.

Your role will include:

What we are looking for:

• Around 5+ years of relevant mechanical design experience with a track record of bringing products from concept to production.
• Experience designing enclosures for electronics with high thermal loads, EMC considerations, and ingress protection requirements.
• Understanding of thermal management techniques for electronics (convection, conduction, forced air, liquid cooling)
• Proficiency in system‑level design and DFM/DFA.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to coordinate technical requirements and work across cross-functional teams, both onsite and remote is a must
• Professional working proficiency in English

Experience in any of the following areas is not required but will be considered a strong advantage:

• Experience with thermal and/or CFD simulation
• Experience with GD&T and tolerance analysis of complex assemblies
• Experience conducting V&V in regulated industries
• Experience working within regulated development processes (ISO 13485) and designing for applicable safety standards (IEC 60601‑1, IEC 61010‑1)

What we offer:

Joining Varex Imaging’s photon counting team means stepping into a role where every innovation you contribute has real-world impact. We offer:

• A unique opportunity to grow as an expert in the X-ray imaging field with a team in which every person makes a difference
