At Demco, we create innovative learning environments for libraries and schools across the country, and we’re looking for a
Product Engineer
to help bring the next generation of ideas to life.
If you thrive in
NPD (New Product Development) , love turning concepts into real-world products, and believe that the best ideas come from iteration (and a little failure), you’ll fit right in with our philosophy:
fail often, fail fast—and build something better every time.
What You’ll Do
As a key contributor in our NPD process, you’ll own the engineering journey from concept through production and continuous improvement. This is a hands‑on, collaborative role where design meets manufacturing.
Lead and support
new product development (NPD)
efforts from ideation to launch
Translate concepts into detailed engineering designs using SolidWorks and similar tools
Partner cross‑functionally with design, sourcing, and manufacturing teams to ensure feasibility and efficiency
Drive prototyping, testing, and iteration cycles (fail fast, learn faster)
Optimize products for cost, durability, manufacturability, and sustainability
Ensure compliance with applicable standards (including BIFMA)
Troubleshoot production challenges and continuously improve existing products
What You Bring
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
5+ years of experience in
Product Engineering / Design Engineering / Product Development Engineering , ideally in an NPD‑focused environment
Strong proficiency in 3D CAD tools (SolidWorks preferred)
Deep understanding of materials, manufacturing processes, and quality standards
Experience with furniture design or wood manufacturing is a strong plus
A problem‑solving mindset with the ability to manage multiple projects at once
Strong collaboration and communication skills
Why Demco?
At Demco, we don’t just design products, we design solutions that impact learning communities nationwide. You’ll be part of a team that values creativity, autonomy, and continuous improvement.
A collaborative, team‑first environment
Opportunities to innovate and influence real products
A culture that embraces experimentation:
fail often, fail fast
Work that directly supports schools and libraries
If you’re ready to take ideas from concept to classroom and aren’t afraid to iterate along the way we’d love to hear from you.
