Senior Engineer, Motor Design Engineering (Hybrid)

Location: Calabasas, CA, United States

Time Type: Full time

Job Description

As a Senior Engineer, Motor Design, you’ll own the electromagnetic heart of our next-generation CPAP motorized blowers. You’ll take concepts from blank sheet to high-volume production, balancing acoustic performance, efficiency, thermal limits, reliability, size, cost, and regulatory constraints. Expect deep hands-on design (magnetics, materials, winding, rotor/stator geometry), tight collaboration with acoustics, electronics, firmware, manufacturing, and quality, and a data-driven approach that turns testing and simulation into hard design decisions. Your work will translate directly into quieter devices, better therapy adherence, and protected IP. If you like building products that actually improve lives, this is where you put your signature on the motor that powers it all.
