Position Overview M Force Partners is seeking an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer to support the design and development of innovative products for automotive and powersports applications. This position will work throughout the complete product development lifecycle, taking mechanical components and assemblies from initial concept through prototyping, testing, design validation, and production release. The ideal Mechanical Design Engineer has strong SolidWorks experience and a hands-on product development background involving mechanical design, rapid prototyping, manufacturing processes, and Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA). This individual will collaborate with electrical engineering, product management, manufacturing, quality, and domestic and international suppliers to develop products that meet performance, quality, cost, and manufacturability requirements. This Mechanical Design Engineer opportunity is well suited for someone who enjoys developing physical products, solving complex design challenges, building and testing prototypes, and seeing their designs progress from concept to production. Key Responsibilities

• Design mechanical components and assemblies using SolidWorks 3D CAD
  
• Develop product concepts through sketches, CAD models, renderings, and technical design presentations
  
• Create production-ready 3D models, detailed engineering drawings, and assembly documentation
  
• Design products and components for automotive and powersports applications
  
• Develop and evaluate prototypes using 3D printing, CNC fabrication, laser cutting, bending, and other rapid prototyping methods
  
• Apply Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) principles to improve manufacturability, quality, cost, and product performance
  
• Collaborate with electrical engineering teams to integrate wiring harnesses and electrical components into mechanical designs
  
• Perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to evaluate structural performance and support engineering decisions
  
• Participate in Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA), technical design reviews, and risk assessments
  
• Support Design Verification Plans and product validation testing
  
• Ensure product designs support applicable

DOT, SAE, ECE, IP

rating, and other relevant requirements
