PrincipalMechanicalEngineerVideoCollaboration
“Principal Mechanical Engineer- Video Collaboration at Logitech. Skills: mechanical architecture decisions, system-level problem solving, cross-functional leadership, product lifecycle management, manufacturing liaison. Drive mechanical architecture decisions for complex, highly integrated products. Balancing thermal, optical, acoustic, and structural requirements against cost, schedule, and manufacturability”
What You'll Achieve.
deliver world-class products; drive execution; elevate overall mechanical engineering capability; keep programs moving forward
Industry & Context.
resolve complex cross-functional challenges; system-level problem solving; identifying issues early; driving root cause analysis; making crisp decisions; takes on complex challenges and owns them to resolution
regular travel to Taiwan and Asia manufacturing sites (15-25%)
What They're Looking For.
Must Have
8-12+ years of mechanical engineering experience in high-volume electronics product development, Demonstrated ability to operate at the system/architecture level, not just component design, Understanding how mechanical, thermal, optical, electrical, and acoustic subsystems interact, Track record of making decisions and driving cross-functional alignment in ambiguous situations, Deep familiarity with plastics, metals, and fabric design, Including injection molding, tooling, die casting, sheet metal, and cosmetic finishing processes, Working knowledge of mechanism design, Hinges, actuators, PTZ systems, or similar precision mechanisms, Experience working directly with Asia-based (Taiwan, China) contract manufacturers and suppliers through development and production, Familiarity with adjacent disciplines, enough EE knowledge to have productive conversations about PCB layout constraints, enough thermal knowledge to guide heat dissipation strategies, enough optical knowledge to understand lens/sensor integration challenges, Proficiency with Pro/E (Creo), SolidWorks, or equivalent 3D CAD, communication skills: you can explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and advocate effectively for your team's position, Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
Nice to Have
Experience with thermal management in constrained enclosures: passive cooling, heat pipes, thermal interface materials, Experience with optical system integration: lens assemblies, image sensor mounting, optical alignment, Background in video conferencing, cameras, audio products, or similar AV devices, Experience mentoring or leading engineering teams, even without direct reports, Mandarin language skills (helpful but not required), A master's degree is a plus
What You'll Do.
Drive mechanical architecture decisions for complex
highly integrated products
and structural requirements against cost
and manufacturability
Partner with regional engineering leadership to drive execution
and elevate overall mechanical engineering capability
Own system-level problem solving
