Job Description

Job Overview

We are seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer (or Advanced Engineer, depending on experience) to take ownership of mechanical design, prototyping, and improvement of our next-generation card shufflers and accessories.

This role demands a deep understanding of precision mechanical systems with a focus on stepper motor-driven motion, high part-count assemblies, and reliability under 24/7 operating conditions. You will be the mechanical thought leader on a multidisciplinary team of electronics, firmware, and software engineers, helping us orchestrate and refine complex motion systems.

Responsibilities

  • Lead mechanical design and development of complex, high-reliability card shufflers composed of hundreds of components, including numerous precision moving parts.
  • Design and document assemblies using SolidWorks with a focus on DFM, tight tolerances, and long-term reliability.
  • Select and specify stepper motors, drive systems, and supporting mechanical components for synchronized operation.
  • Direct and mentor drafters and mechanical technicians to ensure design intent and manufacturing clarity.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (firmware, software, electronics) to integrate and validate full systems.
  • Ensure meticulous vendor and component selection with close attention to spec matching and quality assurance.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues in the lab, factory, and field; support root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Support product launch efforts including pilot builds, design validation, and documentation hand-off to manufacturing.

Skills/Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field (Master’s preferred).
  • 7+ years of experience in high-complexity mechanical design, ideally involving stepper-motor-driven motion systems.
  • Strong proficiency in SolidWorks and experience managing high part-count assemblies with precise tolerances.
  • Experience in DFM, prototyping, and design documentation for production-grade mechanical systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead drafters and communicate technical design clearly across teams.
  • Strong vendor engagement and component specification skills to ensure optimal part performance and reliability.
  • Excellent problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills.

Preferred

  • Experience in casino equipment, gaming hardware, or regulated electro-mechanical systems.
  • Background in vending, robotics, kiosks, printers, or other fast-moving, precision mechanical equipment environments.
  • Familiarity with UL, CE, or other industry-specific compliance standards for hardware products.

Note: All offers are contingent upon successful completion of a background check

*Posted positions are not open to third party recruiters and unsolicited resume submissions will be considered free referrals.
