Mechanical Engineer

Job Title:

Mechanical Engineer

Job Description

This role offers an experienced Mechanical Engineer the opportunity to lead end-to-end mechanical design for innovative power generation and power distribution equipment, with a strong focus on new product development. You will design from scratch, own the full product lifecycle from concept through manufacturing and support, and collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and clients, including those in the rapidly growing modular data center and microgrid markets.

Responsibilities

* Perform detailed mechanical design using Solid Works and AutoCAD, including creation of 3D models, 2D drawings, schematics, finite element analyses (FEA), engineering calculations, and testing documentation.

* Develop clear and accurate assembly drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), and design change documentation to support manufacturing and product lifecycle management.

* Ensure all mechanical designs meet applicable specifications, standards, safety requirements, and the defined project scope for power generation and power distribution equipment.

* Lead mechanical design efforts on assigned projects, taking ownership of design quality, timelines, and deliverables while coordinating with other engineers and designers.

* Review, check, and approve mechanical designs and drawing libraries to maintain consistency, accuracy, and compliance with engineering standards.

* Identify mechanical and technical risks early in the design process, communicate these risks clearly to engineering leadership, and propose mitigation strategies.

* Collaborate with operations, manufacturing, production engineering, and other departments to ensure designs are optimized for manufacturability, assembly, and serviceability.

* Support onsite customer technical needs, including troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and resolution of mechanical issues in the field.

* Select mechanical components and parts with careful consideration of cost, availability, lifecycle, and potential obsolescence to ensure long-term product supportability.

* Track design-related costs as projects progress, monitor budget adherence, and report status and variances to engineering and project management teams.

* Contribute to new product development initiatives in power generation, power distribution, data center, and microgrid applications, helping to expand product lines and support organic growth.

* Manage a workload of approximately one to two projects at a time, balancing design, documentation, testing, and customer-facing responsibilities.

* Engage directly with clients in a professional, consultative manner, including participation in commissioning activities and addressing service-related engineering requirements.

* Travel occasionally, as needed (typically less than 20%), to customer sites such as modular data center installations or other locations requiring onsite engineering support.

Essential Skills

* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering.

* At least 5 years of experience as a Mechanical Engineer in a manufacturing environment.

* At least 5 years of experience with Solid Works for 3D modeling and 2D drafting.

* Hands-on experience with AutoCAD for mechanical design and documentation.

* Proven expertise in new product development and mechanical design for power generation and power distribution equipment.

* Experience working with systems related to power distribution, data centers, microgrids, or similar applications.

* Strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles, including stress analysis, calculations, and application of engineering standards.

* Demonstrated ability to create and manage assembly drawings, bills of materials, and design change documentation.

* Experience coordinating with manufacturing and production engineering to ensure design-for-manufacturing and efficient production.

* Ability to identify and communicate technical risks and provide practical solutions.

* Experience supporting client-facing technical activities, including troubleshooting and root cause analysis.

* Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage one to two concurrent projects and track design costs.

* Effective…
