Mechanical Engineer III

This position requires that you must be a US Citizen for consideration and meet all Federal Contractor employee requirements. Nomad GCS does not support the H1B Visa for this position.

Nomad GCS is currently seeking a Level III Mechanical Engineer. Please note Level II expectation in red below.

Nomad Global Communications Solutions is a leading provider of communication and response products serving a wide variety of customers. Our purpose is to be the solution when every minute matters. We seek a candidate that is self‑inspired to learn and demonstrates a high degree of customer service while positively contributing to our team.

Mechanical Engineers (ME) work is a critical function in the engineering process, being responsible for taking designs from concept through full production documentation. Accuracy and completeness must be maintained through all levels of design to provide complete Bill of Materials (BOMs) and production‑worthy CAD models/drawings to the manufacturing teams. All ME deliverables must meet or exceed Nomad Global Communication Solutions’ standards of excellence.

Mechanical Engineers must apply practical engineering science and technologies to designs, including fluid mechanics, materials, structures, dynamics, basic electrical theory, and machine component design. Expertise in raw material selection, manufacturing processes (welding, machining, & sheet metal), quality control, and cost mitigation are core required competencies.

Depending on level (I–V), Engineers progress from learning foundational engineering practices and supporting designs to independently leading complex platform architectures, mentoring others, and driving technical strategy across the organization.

• Standards and Modularity – Builds and maintains engineering standards, modules, templates, and rules enabling repeatability and scale.
• Design – Executes project‑level engineering using established standards and less complex custom configurations.
• Advanced – Develops novel systems and resolves first‑of‑kind engineering challenges.
• Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering – Ensures manufacturability, safety, engineering intent, efficiency, and continuous improvement throughout production.
