Onsite - Glendale, CA | SMP Engineering, Inc
At SMP Engineering, Inc, we create innovative custom machinery for our client and we’re looking for a Product Engineer to help bring the next generation of ideas to life.
If you thrive in NPD (New Product Development), love turning concepts into real-world products, and believe that the best ideas come from iteration (and a little failure), you’ll fit right in with our philosophy:
fail often, fail fast - and build something better every time.
As a key contributor in our NPD process, you’ll own the engineering journey from concept through production and continuous improvement. This is a hands-on, collaborative role where design meets manufacturing.
- Lead and support new product development (NPD) efforts from ideation to launch.
- Translate concepts into detailed engineering designs using Solid Works and similar tools.
- Partner cross-functionally with design, sourcing, and manufacturing teams to ensure feasibility and efficiency.
- Drive prototyping, testing, and iteration cycles (fail fast, learn faster).
- Optimize products for cost, durability, manufacturability, and sustainability.
- Troubleshoot production challenges and continuously improve existing products.
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
- 3+ years of experience in Product Engineering / Design Engineering / Product Development Engineering, ideally in an NPD-focused environment.
- Strong proficiency in 3D CAD tools (Solid Works preferred).
- Deep understanding of materials, manufacturing processes, and quality standards.
- Experience in industrial machinery manufacturing.
- A problem-solving mindset with the ability to manage multiple projects at once.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills.
- Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
- Health, dental, and vision insurance, STD insurance, PTO, STO, Paid Holidays.
- Opportunities for professional growth and development.
- A collaborative and innovative, self-management work environment.
