Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location: NiskuAbout Us: Silent-Aire is a premier owner equipment manufacturer dedicated to providing custom solutions for data center customers. Our product line includes large-scale equipment such as air handling units and modular data centers. We pride ourselves on innovation, quality, and delivering tailored solutions to meet our clients' unique needs.
Position Overview: As part of the Equipment Design Engineering (EDE) team, you will lead and execute equipment design deliverables while coordinating schedule, scope, and cost. This role blends hands-on design engineering with project management and cost analysis, leveraging PTC Creo, Windchill PLM, and SAP/ERP to create accurate models/drawings, manage product data, and support execution from concept through release. You will work cross-functionally with Design Engineering (DE), Manufacturing, Quality, Procurement, and Project teams to deliver high-quality packages with clear timelines, risk visibility, and cost awareness.
Key Responsibilities:
What you will do:
1) Project Management & Delivery Ownership
Plan and manage multiple concurrent engineering deliverables, balancing competing priorities and deadlines.Coordinate project scope, milestones, constraints, and documentation using standard project templates and progress tracking practices.Provide timeline/effort inputs that support job costing, resourcing, and delivery commitments.Drive alignment and communication across stakeholders; document decisions, risks, assumptions, issues, and action items. (RAID-style discipline supported by internal references.)2) Cost Analysis & Value Engineering
Perform cost analysis on equipment designs and subassemblies (make vs. buy, in-house vs. vendor, labor/material impacts) and communicate recommendations.Build and maintain cost tracking inputs (quotes, BOM deltas, savings opportunities, Cap Ex/Payback where applicable).Partner with Procurement and Manufacturing Engineering to validate assumptions and improve cost accuracy and sourcing decisions.3) Equipment Design Engineering (Hands-on Technical Execution)
Develop and release 3D models, 2D drawings, and documentation packages from concepts, specs, and project inputs.Design with manufacturing, safety, and serviceability in mind; ensure alignment to internal review/release requirements and standards.Support production and shop-floor problem solving by responding to build issues and updating drawings/BOMs as required.4) Creo + Windchill PLM Data Management
Use Creo for modeling and detailing; apply standardized drafting practices and design intent.Use Windchill PLM to manage product structures, revisions, and controlled releases; maintain clean workspaces and configuration discipline.Contribute to training/standard work and improve documentation clarity for PLM/CAD workflows (where needed).5) SAP/ERP Integration
Work within SAP/ERP (or equivalent) to support material/master data alignment, routings touchpoints, and BOM/part number accuracy across systems.Coordinate with Materials/Procurement to ensure the released engineering definition translates cleanly into purchasing and manufacturing execution flows.6) Cross-Functional Design Handoff & Process Discipline
Lead structured handoffs between DE and EDE by identifying missing inputs early and tracking owners/dates using standardized checklistsEnsure design packages progress through peer/manager/department reviews and are resubmitted with discrepancies closed before releaseHow you will do it:
Utilize PTC Creo to create and release accurate 3D models, drawings, and documentation packages in compliance with internal design standards and change control processes.Perform engineering analyses, trade studies, and risk reviews to justify design decisions and ensure technical and functional requirements are met.Partner with manufacturing engineering, quality, and operations to improve manufacturability, reduce variation, and support production ramp priorities through practical Design for Manufacturing (DFM).Communicate technical decisions clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders, including internal teams and external suppliers as required.Design and draft mechanical…
