Vacant job

Neko Health is a Swedish health-tech company co-founded in 2018 by Hjalmar Nilsonne and Daniel Ek. Our vision is to create a healthcare system that can help people stay healthy through preventive measures and early detection. Neko has developed a new medical scanning technology concept to make it possible to do broad and non-invasive health data collection that is both convenient and affordable for the public. This requires completely reimagining the healthcare experience and incorporating the latest advances in sensors and AI. We are a remote first company, but the company is based in Stockholm and has over 300 employees across Europe.

Following the launch of our first scanning clinic in Stockholm this year and recently attained 60 million Euro in funding, Neko Health is in an expansive phase and plans to open more clinics in the near future. To achieve this, we will be strengthening our hardware team with the addition of two mechanical design engineers. You will work alongside optics, electronics, and mechanical specialists on the design of diagnostic instruments used in our scanning rooms.

About the role

As a mechanical design engineer at Neko Health, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of healthcare technology. Your responsibilities include developing and designing cutting-edge health-tech products which extends to driving projects from prototyping through to production and demonstrating a pragmatic and initiative-taking approach. You will collaborate closely with our multidisciplinary team of experts to translate concepts into real-world solutions. This will involve designing parts for sheet-metal, CNC and 3D-printing, producing assembly drawings of new and existing instruments, redesigning key elements of existing instruments, creating detailed production drawings, obtaining manufacturing quotations, sourcing manufacturing of parts and being responsible for the assembly of the instruments and their installation in our scanning rooms.

Regulatory compliance is a key aspect of the role, as you will be responsible for ensuring that all design and construction activities comply with regulatory and legal requirements, contributing to the safety and effectiveness of our body scanners.

Requirements:

• Exceptional commercial experience in mechanical design,
• Experience of driving projects from prototyping to production,
• Experience of working in multidisciplinary teams.
• Proficiency in relevant mechanical design software, including Solidworks (with PDM).
• A degree in mechanical engineering or a related discipline.
• An open mindset.
• Strong communication skills in Swedish and English, both written and verbal, are necessary to facilitate effective collaboration with internal teams and external partners.
• A Plus: An ability to work in other areas than purely mechanical, e.g., optical and electronic/electrical design.
