Are you looking to take your mechanical design skills to the next level in a fast-paced automation environment?
We’re seeking a talented Mechanical Designer to join our client's dynamic engineering team!
In this role, you’ll work alongside Mechanical Design Leads and cross-functional teams to engineer high-impact solutions, meet key project milestones, and support an entrepreneurial, vision-driven culture.
If you're passionate about custom machinery, solving complex engineering problems, and shaping the future of automated systems, we want to hear from you!
Key Responsibilities:
Technical & Design Execution:
- 3D CAD & Drafting: Produce working drawings, detail drawings, and Bills of Materials (BOMs) using SolidWorks and AutoCAD.
- Engineering Analysis: Perform calculations for material strength, speeds, force, temperature, and pressure to ensure optimal tool and machine designs.
- Compliance & Standards: Analyze designs for compliance with industry standards (e.g., OSHA, CE) and review drawings for material selection, machining techniques, finishes, and hardness.
- Hands-on Problem Solving: Reverse engineer components using precision measurement tools and collaborate directly with fabricators, machinists, toolmakers, and electricians to bring designs to life.
- Component Integration: Utilize working knowledge of machine shop techniques, pneumatics, hydraulics, and electrical devices (switches, load cells, LVDTs).
Project Execution & Teamwork:
- Communicate progress, design updates, and documentation cleanly across departments.
- Work closely with vendors for technical specifications and assist with customer documentation.
- Ensure scheduled milestones are met while maintaining high ethical, safety, and quality standards.
What We’re Looking For:
- Education: University Degree or College Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics Automation Technology, or equivalent experience.
- Software Proficiency: Strong background in SolidWorks (or equivalent 3D CAD) and AutoCAD.
- Industry Experience: Experience in mechanical design within an automation or custom machinery environment.
- Bonus Assets: Experience with custom tooling for the nuclear industry, or working knowledge of ISO 9001, N299, and NQA-1 quality standards.
- Travel Flexibility: Willingness to travel to vendor/supplier locations (typically under 15%).
