About the Role

HP IQ's Hardware Design team materializes product vision into manufacturable hardware systems. This role drives the design and integration of complete hardware products from early architecture and prototype phases through production ramp, owning mechanical and systems integration challenges.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with Industrial Design to translate product vision into mechanical design, enclosure layout, and form factor feasibility
  • Integrate multiple subsystems (microphone, speaker, antenna, battery, PCB, sensors, buttons) into a cohesive hardware architecture
  • Produce CAD models, component placement studies, and tolerance analysis to guide manufacturing
  • Work with contract manufacturers and vendors to validate design feasibility, manage drawing releases, and troubleshoot production issues
  • Participate in hands-on prototype builds, design validation, and iterative refinement across development cycles
  • Apply design of experiments methodology to validate material selection, assembly processes, and design assumptions
  • Collaborate with Electrical Engineering on PCB layout, flexible PCB integration, and component placement constraints
  • Define assembly processes, fixturing strategies, and datuming schemes to ensure manufacturability
  • Own design documentation including 2D drawings, specifications, and design rationale for internal and vendor communication

Requirements

  • Solid understanding of material science fundamentals including stress-strain relationships, thermal properties, and material selection rationale
  • Proficiency with CAD tools and component placement within constrained form factors
  • Familiarity with tolerance analysis, tolerance stacks, and design for manufacturability principles
  • Experience or demonstrated knowledge of manufacturing processes including injection molding, CNC machining, extrusion, and assembly processes
  • Experience with PCB design, flexible PCB, or electrical component integration
  • Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, prototype-heavy environments; resourcefulness and self-direction essential
  • Strong communication skills with ability to partner across Industrial Design, Engineering, and Manufacturing teams
  • Comfort with hands-on prototyping, lab work, and iterative design refinement
  • Demonstrated ability to work without extensive documentation or rigid structure; thrives in startup-like, fast-moving environments
