Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionTHRIVE is an award-winning, ISO 9001 certified end-to-end product development and innovation strategy firm. Our company is built on Informed Design — an empathy-driven, human-centered approach that helps us and our clients design, develop, and engineer products that have real meaning and experiences that people love. You can find our innovations positively impacting lives in homes, hospitals, and businesses around the world. This is why THRIVE continues to be a trusted advisor to some of the world's most iconic brands, including AT&T, Amazon, Amgen, Becton Dickinson, Coca-Cola, Keurig, Hillrom, Intuitive Surgical, Johnson & Johnson, McDonald's, Samsung, Wolf, and SC Johnson. Now, we're looking to add even more talent to our awesome team
Hello, we're THRIVE
We're a group of creative professionals raising the bar on Informed Design. We design human-centered brands, products, services, and experiences for leading companies around the world.
Why should you work with us?
1) Your skills will be nurtured
Every organization talks about development and evolving your career, but at THRIVE, it's a part of the job description. We welcome your talent and your skills and want to give you the support and framework to nurture your abilities. We also want you to be able to do everything you've wanted to do, whether that's something focused in design, branding, strategy, or something entirely separate.
2) Your skills will be used in a variety of ways
Our clients come to us because they have a problem and they want THRIVE's help solving it. The exciting and challenging part is that no problem is just alike, which means our team members — and hopefully you, if you decide to bring your talents to THRIVE — work on a variety of projects for a variety of clients. This keeps the work fresh and stimulates innovation.
3) You'll be surrounded by talented, passionate people like you
We're growing fast, which also means that there's lots of growth opportunities at THRIVE. But the other factor that helps our team members grow is the amount of sheer talent everyone is surrounded by on a day-to-day basis. In addition to top-tier talent, the other thing our team possesses is a serious passion for their work, which ultimately stems from a passion for designing a world that helps people thrive everywhere. If this is something you're interested in doing, THRIVE might be the perfect place for you.
THRIVE is more than a consulting firm. We're a team passionate about turning innovative ideas into reality. We blend creativity with practicality to push the limits of mechanical engineering. Whether we're working on consumer goods, industrial equipment, or medical devices, our team is dedicated to making innovative concepts work in the real world.
We are looking for a senior level Mechanical Engineering Consultant who is passionate about designing innovative new products and has a proven track record in product and system design. This contracted role is perfect for someone who seeks technical and programmatic ownership and enjoys working in an interdisciplinary team to rapidly evaluate design feasibility.
We're especially keen to connect with individuals or small agency owners interested in forming a long-term contract partnership with us.
