Our customer is a design and build manufacturer of custom industrial process equipment and specialty machinery, engineered and fabricated in our own shops by our in-house fabricators, machinists, and mechanical and electrical assemblers. The Mechanical Design Engineer is responsible for the mechanical design, sizing calculations, and detailed documentation of custom equipment built to job specifications, applicable codes, and demanding customer requirements.

DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES

Design custom mechanical equipment and machinery — including paper-market roll, frame, and drive systems and coal/power combustion fabrications such as windboxes and nozzle assemblies — in a manner that supports job specifications, applicable codes, customer requirements, and good engineering practice. Perform and document sizing and stress/failure calculations — including gearbox, motor, paper roll, frame, and guide-system sizing for Heavy Machine Automation work, windbox calculations for Combustion (Coal/Power) work, and pneumatic/hydraulic actuator and linear-actuator selection. Grow into a technical leader on the team — own the engineering quality of the work you touch, set the example for thoroughness in calculations and documentation, mentor less-experienced engineers and designers through design reviews and one-on-one coaching, raise concerns early and constructively, and represent R-V's technical position with confidence in front of customers and internal stakeholders. Own the PO and specification review and all technical documentation required to build, assemble, test, and ship the equipment, including drawings, component specifications, bills of materials, and procedures. Digest project and customer specifications for manufacturing use, and create Bills of Materials with all technical requirements defined for Purchasing — including buyout components such as gearboxes, motors, and bearings, or combustion parts such as nozzles and windbox components. Assist Sales, Project Managers, Purchasing, Quality, Manufacturing, Testing, and Installation with all issues related to the contract, and execute projects from a budget and schedule standpoint for all technical tasks. Communicate with customers' technical personnel on all matters related to design, specification interpretation, and pertinent technical requirements.

SKILLS/QUALIFICATIONS

Required Skills:

Minimum of 5 years of progressive machine design experience, including some or all of the following: Heavy machine and drive-system design — gearboxes, motors, paper rolls, frames, and guide systems Stress/failure and sizing calculations Pneumatic/hydraulic actuator design and selection of linear actuators Sensor selection and implementation P&ID creation Sheet-metal, plate, and weldment design for large custom fabrications Material selection and design for high-temperature and severe-service applications Design for manufacturability, tolerance stack-up, and compliance with applicable codes and customer specifications 3+ years of experience with SolidWorks or Inventor. Demonstrated desire and character to grow into a leadership role. We expect a future technical leader to show: Sound technical judgment — knowing when to follow the specification letter-for-letter, when to ask for guidance, and when to push back on a customer or vendor. Ownership mentality — taking responsibility for the full lifecycle of a project from design through test and installation, and following through on commitments without being chased. Mentorship instinct — willingness to teach calculation methods, specification interpretation, and drafting standards to less-experienced engineers and designers. Clear, respectful communication — able to explain technical decisions to non-engineers, write documentation others can follow, and disagree without making it personal. Commitment to continuous improvement — actively learning new methods, materials, and software, and proposing better ways to do the work. Checking detailed drawings Sizing components and creating calculation packages Creating complete machine designs, including general arrangement and detailed drawings Writing specifications for buyout components Creating Bills of Materials for purchasing and production Strong communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills, positive team player, passion for continuous learning and improvement.
