What You'll Do Design and develop mechanical systems from concept through production Combine hands-on development with disciplined engineering practices, including design reviews, validation testing, and clear documentation to ensure quality and repeatability Build and test prototypes in-house (and sometimes in the field) Solving real-world engineering problems under real constraints Perform analysis (FEA, fatigue, motion) to validate designs Work cross-functionally with customers, controls, and manufacturing teams Investigate failures and improve designs based on real performance Support installations and testing at customer sites when needed (~10%) What We're Looking For 3+ years of hands-on mechanical design / R&D experience Strong fundamentals in structures, materials, and motion systems Experience designing for manufacturability (not just theory) Proficient in 3D CAD software, SolidWorks, Catia, Inventor (preferred) Experience with PDM software (Autodesk Vault preferred) Comfortable being hands-on in the shop and in the field Someone who takes ownership and pushes projects forward Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar Experience with APQP processes, validation plans, and FMEA Knowledge of machining, casting, welding, and additive manufacturing Experience with conveyors and/or magnetics Strong understanding of real-world mechanical system design, including tolerances, materials, fasteners, and fabrication Bonus Points Experience with automation, robotics, or heavy equipment Background in dynamic systems or vibration analysis Experience working directly with manufacturing teams Understanding of control systems and motion feedback Understanding of program languages such as Python, VBA, or iLogic Experience with parametric configurators
