If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in. Manager, Engineering — Robotics SharkNinja | Needham, MA (on-site) Robots that clean people's homes have to work every single day, in every kind of house, without being babysat. That's a hard engineering problem, and it's yours. You'll lead a multidisciplinary team — mechanical, electrical, firmware/controls, and systems engineers — building the next generation of autonomous products in our robotics portfolio. Concept to mass production, at pace, with prototypes on your bench. What you'll own The system. Full ownership of robotic system design across mechanical, electrical, and embedded/controls — through concept, CAD/CAE, prototyping, V&V, and into mass production. The integration. Sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMUs, cliff and bump), actuators and motors, batteries, and embedded electronics brought together into one reliable machine, and the system-level testing that proves it. The team. Hiring, developing, and stretching a group of A-players toward what they actually want their careers to be. The tradeoffs. Continuous improvement of designs for cost, manufacturability, quality, reliability, and consumer value — applying tolerance stack-up, DFM/DFA, and electromechanical assembly judgment for high-volume production. The connective tissue. Working seamlessly with our UK and China product development teams and with executive leadership so good ideas survive the trip to production. What you bring 6+ years in product development, robotics, or a related field — ideally somewhere fast-paced and startup-like A record of shipping robust, elegant solutions to hard engineering problems, leading projects, and mentoring engineers Product execution experience in consumer products or consumer robotics Strong mechanical engineering and physics fundamentals: mechanical design, kinematics, dynamics, fluid mechanics Working command of robotics fundamentals — sensing, actuation, motion planning, controls, embedded systems — enough to guide and evaluate a technical team Hands-on familiarity with electronics, test equipment, and robotics components: sensors, motors, motor drivers, batteries, PCBAs, embedded controllers Excellent CAD skills BS, MS, or BA in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Robotics, Mechatronics, or similar) Strong plus: embedded firmware, controls algorithms, or robotics software stacks (motion control, SLAM/localization, sensor integration). How you work You break complex problems down to first principles, build a plan, and execute fail-fast — progress over perfection. You chase down potential problems before they surface and take ownership of fixing them. You explain technical work clearly to non-technical colleagues. You argue for your ideas hard, and you let your ideas get argued with. This role is on-site in Needham, MA — the work is hands-on with product and prototypes.

144,883 engineer jobs are open right now

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

144.883Jobs
31.687IN
81%EN

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.

Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.

Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.

When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
