Plan and prioritize team workload to meet project schedules and organizational objectives
Conduct performance reviews, training, and technical development of team members
Supervise, mentor and support a team of mechanical engineers and designers, fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement

Design & Development:

Design, develop and review mechanical specifications for distribution transformers, ensuring compliance with customer requirements
Develop and review mechanical designs for distribution transformers, including tanks, enclosures, radiators, lifting/grounding provisions, core-coil frame assemblies, and mounting structures.
Perform mechanical calculations such as structural strength for short circuit forces, thermal performance, and tolerance stack-ups
Utilize engineering software (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidEdge, or proprietary transformer design tools) for mechanical design, modeling and simulation
Prepare and review manufacturing drawings, bills of materials, and 3D CAD models, as required
Ensure designs meet applicable industry regulations and standards including utility and customer specifications.
Stay updated on evolving industry standards, participating in and representing the company on industrial committees and technical events as required
Support all mechanical certification and testing requirements, including short circuit and thermal performance validation

Support initiatives to standardize and optimize mechanical design processes
Lead and support root cause analysis and corrective actions for mechanical design-related issues during production or testing
Manage mechanical design review processes to ensure accuracy, adapting as necessary to different product types and configurations

Collaboration and Coordination:

Interface with electrical design, production, quality, and supply chain teams to support manufacturability, testing, and cost-efficiency of mechanical designs
Drive process improvement initiatives to enhance efficiencies and design quality
Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical design-related issues encountered during manufacturing
Participate in pre-order and post-order design reviews to confirm technical compliance and mitigate risks
Provide technical guidance and direction to junior designers and engineers, contributing to the development of engineering standards and best practices

Requirements

Education:

Bachelor's degree, or higher, in mechanical or electrical engineering

Experience:

15+ years of experience in design engineering of electrical distribution equipment, transformer design beneficial.
3+ years of experience leading engineering teams or acting as a technical lead
