The Sr. Mechanical Design Engineer will oversee all technical activities associated with mechanical design engineering. This role includes developing new product designs based on commercial requirements, generating complete design documentation, and effectively communicating design intent to supporting teams to ensure smooth transition into production. The position also requires enhancing existing products and creating extensions to current product lines to support both simple and complex new business opportunities.

Preferred experience includes knowledge of centrifugal and/or positive displacement pump design, valve design, plastic and metal component development, and fluid dynamics. Key responsibilities involve creating CAD models, performing design and mathematical calculations, conducting tolerance and stack‑up analyses, producing engineering drawings, and executing qualification testing. Additional duties include defining material and component specifications, securing agency approvals, developing BOMs, providing concurrent engineering input on assembly sequencing, releasing product and component documentation, writing laboratory test procedures, supporting research and development activities, analyzing returned products, and identifying required spare parts and kits.

This role operates within a global, cross‑functional team environment, contributing to the development of advanced product solutions for the industries served by the Specialty Flow Control team. Strong communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills are essential, along with creativity in solving design challenges, a commitment to delivering customer value, and a passion for driving product design initiatives.
