A founder in the sports equipment space is launching a new venture focused on next-generation paintball equipment including the design of a new air-driven paintball marker. We’re seeking a senior-level Mechanical Engineer with deep experience in pneumatics and precision mechanical design to lead the development of the company’s first products. This is a part-time contract role ideal for an experienced engineer who enjoys hands-on product development, rapid prototyping, and owning the mechanical architecture of a product from concept through early iterations. If the initial product launch goes well, there is strong potential for ongoing long-term contract work.
Job Responsibility:
Lead the mechanical design of a new air-driven paintball marker (pneumatic system design is essential)
Develop concepts, CAD models, and early prototypes using SolidWorks or Fusion 360
Iterate on designs based on testing, performance, and functional requirements
Collaborate directly with the founder to define requirements, timelines, and design milestones
Provide engineering guidance on manufacturability, materials, tolerances, and long-term product roadmap considerations
Potential to support additional product designs as the company grows
Requirements:
Senior-level Mechanical Engineer with extensive experience
Strong background in pneumatic systems, air-driven mechanisms, or similar precision mechanical assemblies
Proficiency in SolidWorks or Fusion 360
Ability to work independently, plan your own work, and deliver high-quality design iterations
