If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in. Senior Manager, R D Biomechanical Engineering Needham, MA (On-Site) The Opportunity SharkNinja's products are used by hundreds of millions of people around the world — and the reason they work as well as they do comes down to the engineering. We're looking for a Senior Manager of R D Biomechanical Engineering who wants to be at the center of that: leading the technical direction of breakthrough products, building a team of exceptional engineers, and shaping how Ninja's next generation of consumer technology gets made.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage from a distance. You'll be in the lab with your team one day and in front of senior leadership the next. You'll own the technical standard, the team culture, and the roadmap — from early-stage concept through mass production.

What You'Ll Do

You'll lead a growing team of engineers focused on biomechanical research and product performance across Ninja's portfolio. That means setting technical direction, personally driving solutions on high-stakes programs, and making sure your team has the clarity, tools, and development they need to do their best work.

Requirements

and iterating with both speed and rigor Identify and resolve technical risk early, before it becomes a business problem What You Bring You're a strong engineer first. You have deep fluency in mechanical engineering and physics fundamentals — heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanical design — and the instincts to apply them in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. You've solved hard problems and can show your work.

You're also a leader people want to follow. You know how to set a high bar without burning your team out, how to give feedback that makes engineers better, and how to keep a team energized through the complexity of real product development.

Qualifications

: BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline (advanced degree a plus) 5–10+ years in product development with meaningful leadership responsibility in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment Experience leading teams across multiple concurrent projects, from early exploration through mass production Hands-on experience with biomechanical research applied to product design C
