Senior Product Design Engineer – Floorcare
Needham, MA
The Opportunity
Our mission — to positively impact people's lives every day in every home around the world — lets our employees be thinkers and tinkerers, designers and doers, creators and number crunchers, makers of things they love. As we continue to grow, we're excited to add a Senior Product Design Engineer to our global team.
You'll help build a new generation of innovative products across our Shark Floorcare brand, working from our Needham, MA headquarters. This is front-end product creation: you'll bring technical substance and inspiration to our creative efforts, focusing on technology and feasibility as we build the product roadmap, so what reaches the market is credible as well as exciting.
What You'll Get to Do
- Own the Floorcare roadmap's front-end technology and feasibility phase for our next generation of vacuums and floorcare products — complete system innovations that sit between the physical (mechanical) and system (sensors, software, batteries, connectivity, motors, airflow) elements of a cleaning system.
- Work the front-end product and engineering development phase, using ideation and innovation techniques to unlock and drive the roadmap alongside engineering and cross-functional PD, ID, Brand, and Test Kitchen teams in the US, UK, and China.
- Fail fast — drive ideas to a conclusion early via functional rigs, before handing part or complete product solution packages to the back-end implementation AD team.
- Tinker hands-on across short- and long-term projects, in the form of proof-of-concept rigs.
- Communicate ideas quickly and effectively through a mix of sketching, CAD layouts, 3D models, and working prototypes to evaluate potential solutions.
- Carry out design and engineering studies, independently and in teams, to solve technical or consumer issues — keeping user experience front and center at every stage, including cleaning performance, maneuverability, and ease of use.
- Collaborate with our global AD and CI teams so front-end sensibilities — the consumer-focused experience — drive our direction and survive all the way through development to a 5-star product.
- Coach and support your teammates, especially junior colleagues, and encourage their efforts.
- Balance and prioritize multiple workflows across projects alongside additional responsibilities, on fast-paced schedules and deadlines.
What You'll Bring
Experience & Technical Skills
- 5–8+ years of proven experience in Mechanical Engineering.
- Electromechanical products in a product development environment — ideally including motorized floor-cleaning systems (vacuums, mops, or similar high-duty-cycle mechanical assemblies).
- Designing for plastic parts, including silicone, rubber, and injection molded parts.
- Working with IP teams to track prior art and identify novel or inventive solutions within the AD/R&D team.
- Proficiency with SolidWorks or Creo.
- The ability to identify, solve, implement, and verify technical solutions autonomously as part of a team.
- Comfort operating (with training) in the lab — building prototypes, running product testing, and developing and reporting findings with next steps.
- An appreciation for electrical engineering, software, and mechanical principles. An all-rounder of sorts.
- Bachelor's degree, ideally in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or Industrial Design with a focus on engineering principles.
How You Work
- Flexibility, resilience, and perseverance, with a positive attitude and an entrepreneurial nature — and a preference for collaboration. These are key to success at SharkNinja.
- Not afraid to fail fast, learn, and pivot.
- A proven problem-solver who can demonstrably generate and deliver solutions within project timelines.
- Judgment about which problems to solve and how to make daily progress, plus a real belief in iterating to prove out hypotheses.
- Continuous evaluation of design intent to achieve outstanding results for the business and the consumer.
- A growth mindset — you proactively build your own knowledge and actively seek coaching from others.
- Keen to join internal working groups outside your core role to improve processes, the working environment, and internal mindset.

Senior Product Design Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a senior product design in Massachusetts?
Becoming a senior product designer in Massachusetts typically requires a bachelor's degree in industrial design, interaction design, human-computer interaction, or a related field, followed by several years of progressively responsible design work. Massachusetts employers prioritize a strong portfolio over formal credentials, so advancing means accumulating shipped product work that shows strategic ownership, not just execution. Institutions such as MassArt, Northeastern, and Wentworth Institute of Technology have established relationships with local design employers that can accelerate the path.
How much do senior product designs make in Massachusetts?
Senior product designs in Massachusetts earn a median of about $101,720 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $76,010 for the lowest 10% to over $149,990 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire senior product designs in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring senior product designs in Massachusetts right now include Formlabs, Bevi, and MathWorks, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Massachusetts's density of technology companies, medical device manufacturers, and consumer software firms means that senior design roles turn over regularly across both large organizations and well-funded growth-stage companies.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most senior product design jobs?
Boston, Natick, and Andover hold the most senior product design openings in Massachusetts. Boston and Cambridge dominate because of the concentration of technology companies, biotech firms, and university-linked startups in those metros, while Waltham and Burlington attract openings from established software and hardware companies that have located their headquarters or major offices along the Route 128 corridor.
Are there remote senior product design jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 50% of senior product design openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of the work happens in digital tools that travel well. Research synthesis, wireframing, and design-system work are the tasks most commonly performed fully remotely, while stakeholder workshops and usability sessions more often require in-person or hybrid presence.
How can I get hired as a senior product design in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an associate or junior product designer role at a mid-size Massachusetts technology or consumer software company, where mentorship structures are more accessible than at large enterprises. Northeastern's co-op program and MassArt's design internship network place candidates directly with Boston-area employers. Adjacent roles such as UX researcher, visual designer, or product analyst at companies like Wayfair or MathWorks often serve as a lateral entry point, and a focused portfolio showing process thinking matters more than years on a resume.
Where can I find and apply to senior product design jobs in Massachusetts?
You can find and apply to senior product design jobs in Massachusetts on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to Massachusetts employers. Find roles that fit your experience and specialization and apply directly through each listing.
