Job Description:

Mechanical Engineer - SolidWorks / Stress Analysis (Electronic Enclosures) Position Overview Our client is seeking a highly skilled, hands-on Mechanical Engineer with proven expertise in SolidWorks and stress analysis , specifically focused on the design and validation of electronic enclosures . This is a technical role for an engineer who is actively engaged in design and analysis work-not a managerial position. The ideal candidate will bring a strong background in structural/mechanical analysis and a deep understanding of how enclosure designs perform under real-world conditions. Key Responsibilities Design and develop electronic enclosures using SolidWorks (or equivalent CAD tools) Perform stress and structural analysis (FEA) to validate designs and ensure durability and reliability Evaluate mechanical performance under various environmental and operational conditions (thermal, vibration, load, etc.) Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, manufacturing, and product teams to optimize enclosure designs Create detailed engineering documentation, drawings, and analysis reports Support prototyping, testing, and design iteration based on analysis results and physical testing Required Qualifications Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering (BSME) Minimum of 5 years of hands-on mechanical engineering experience (no recent graduates) Strong proficiency in SolidWorks (or similar 3D CAD software) Demonstrated experience with stress analysis / FEA , particularly for enclosures or structural components Proven experience designing or analyzing electronic enclosures or similar mechanical housings Ability to translate analytical results into practical design improvements Preferred Profile Recent, hands-on technical experience (candidates primarily in management roles without recent design/analysis work will not be considered) Experience working in environments involving electronics, hardware packaging, or ruggedized systems Familiarity with industry standards related to enclosure performance (thermal, vibration, shock, etc.) Ideal Candidate This role is best suited for a detail-oriented, analytical engineer who enjoys working directly in CAD and simulation tools, solving real-world mechanical challenges, and ensuring designs meet rigorous performance standards.
