If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in. Senior Manager, R&D Biomechanical Engineering Needham, MA (On-Site) The Opportunity Shark's products , including the recent CryoGlow and FacialPro Glow skincare devices, are used by millions of people around the world — and the reason they work as well as they do comes down to the engineering. We're looking for a Senior Manager of R&D Biomechanical Engineering who wants to be at the center of that: leading the technical direction of breakthrough products, building a team of exceptional engineers, and shaping how Shark's next generation of skincare technology gets made. This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage from a distance. You'll be in the lab with your team one day and in front of senior leadership the next. You'll own the technical standard, the team culture, and the roadmap — from early-stage concept through mass production. What You'll Do You'll lead a growing team of engineers focused on biomechanical research and product performance across Shark's skincare portfolio, building directly on the success of GyroGlow and FacialPro Glow to define what comes next. That means setting technical direction, personally driving solutions on high-stakes programs, and making sure your team has the clarity, tools, and development they need to do their best work. Specifically, you'll: Define and own the technical strategy for Shark's next-generation skincare programs , connecting first-principles engineering — especially biomechanics as applied to skin, tissue, and facial contact — to real consumer outcomes Be a hands-on technical leader — equally comfortable prototyping in the lab, running a rigorous design review, or presenting R&D findings to senior leadership Build and scale the team: recruiting top engineering talent, creating development paths, and cultivating a culture of intellectual honesty and continuous improvement Partner closely with cross-functional leaders across product, design, and operations to align technology development with Shark's beauty and personal care business priorities Champion a "fail fast, learn fast" approach — compressing problems to their core requirements and iterating with both speed and rigor Identify and resolve technical risk early, before it becomes a business problem What You Bring You're a strong engineer first. You have deep fluency in mechanical engineering , biomechan ics, and physics fundamentals — heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanical design — and the instincts to apply them in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. You've solved hard problems and can show your work. You're also a leader people want to follow. You know how to set a high bar without burning your team out, how to give feedback that makes engineers better, and how to keep a team energized through the complexity of real product development. Qualifications: BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline (advanced degree a plus) 5–10 years in product development with meaningful leadership responsibility in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment Experience leading teams across multiple concurrent projects, from early exploration through mass production Hands-on experience with biomechanical research applied to product design Comfort with test equipment, data analysis, and CAD fundamentals Strong analytical skills with proficiency in Excel or equivalent tools Exceptional communicator — able to translate complex technical work for non-technical stakeholders at the senior level Why SharkNinja We move fast, we build things that actually ship, and we obsess over consumer experience in a way that's rare at our scale. You'll have real ownership, genuine cross-functional influence, and a team that's hungry to build something great. If you want to spend your career making products that reach people's homes and genuinely improve their lives — and leading the engineering team that makes it possible — this is the role. Salary and Other Compensation: The annual salary range for this position is displayed below.
