    Senior Sustainability Engineer
    Needham, MA · On-site

    At SharkNinja, our mission is to positively impact people's lives every day, in every home around the world.* We build high-quality, exciting products — and we're just as committed to lowering their environmental footprint. As we grow, we're adding a Senior Sustainability Engineer to our global team.

    The role

    SharkNinja is working to reduce its environmental impact, and we're looking for a creative problem solver to advance the development of low-carbon products. You have an intuitive grasp of physics and engineering fundamentals, are equally comfortable hacking together a prototype in the lab or analyzing test results, and are passionate about solving the engineering challenges behind sustainable product innovation.

    This is a hands-on role for an experienced engineer with a deep understanding of energy efficiency and sustainable materials, natural curiosity about how to apply them in new ways, and the ability to collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering and Product Development to bring these products to market.

    What you'll do

    • Support development of sustainable consumer products — identify lower-impact opportunities and use hands-on design, testing, and problem-solving to prove out your solutions
    • Investigate commercially available and next-generation technologies to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon footprint across key products
    • Work daily with Engineering and Product Development to rapidly build understanding of systems, environmental performance levers, and tradeoffs
    • Pull in teammates from other disciplines to brainstorm, solve problems, build proof-of-concept prototypes, and test them thoroughly
    • Guide and work closely with co-ops and interns
    • See your team's work come to life on store shelves, online, and in infomercials — in products with a reduced carbon footprint

    What you bring

    • BS or MS in Mechanical, Electrical, Materials Science, or a related engineering discipline
    • 5+ years in design and development
    • A track record of bringing energy-efficient, environmentally responsible technologies into products on the market
    • Strong analytical skills, a methodical mindset, sharp attention to detail, and a relentless drive to find potential problems and own their resolution
    • Clear communication — explaining working principles, translating data into design implications, and making recommendations to technical and non-technical colleagues alike
    • Awareness of global eco-legislation for consumer products and how to future-proof designs against it
    • Lab experience running controlled experiments on things you designed and built, using a range of test equipment and instrumentation
    • CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, Creo, or similar)
    • Organization, plus Excel, Python, or MATLAB (or similar) to turn test data into learnings
    • Genuine enjoyment of building meaningful professional relationships with colleagues
    • Because the work is hands-on and team-based, this role is in person at our Needham, MA office

    Nice to have

    • Applied R&D experience at a consumer products or consulting company
    • Experience with analog/digital electronics, related test equipment, and small-appliance components — sensors, motors, heaters, PCBAs
    • Understanding of applied fluid mechanics and heat transfer
    • Experience designing and executing experimental test plans to guide design decisions
    • Comfort multitasking and shifting priorities quickly without losing sight of long-term goals
    • Experience working with external experts or consultancies

    Salary and Other Compensation: The annual salary range for this position is displayed below. Factors which may affect starting pay within this range may include geography/market, skills, education, experience and other qualifications of the successful candidate. 

    The Company offers the following benefits for this position, subject to applicable eligibility requirements: medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts (HSA) with company contribution, 401(k) retirement plan with matching, employee stock purchase program, life insurance, AD&D, short-term disability insurance, long-term disability insurance, generous paid time off, company holidays, parental leave, identity theft protection, pet insurance, pre-paid legal insurance, back-up child and eldercare days, product discounts, referral bonus program, and more.
