Mechanical Engineer

Mechanical Engineer

The Mechanical Engineer will serve as the primary engineering resource on site, taking ownership of mechanical design activities from concept through production using Solid Works and related CAD tools. This role focuses heavily on 3D modeling, creation of detailed drawings and Bills of Materials, and close collaboration with production and other departments to support ongoing product improvement and new product development.

The position is ideal for a mid-level to early senior professional with approximately 47 years of mechanical engineering experience who is comfortable working independently while partnering with cross-functional teams.

• Create and update detailed 3D solid models and engineering drawings from sketches, existing drawings, and electronic images using Solid Works and related CAD tools.
• Prepare accurate Bills of Materials (BOM) for customer orders and develop modular BOM creation procedures to support efficient manufacturing.
• Support and process Engineering Change Orders (ECO) using Autodesk Vault Professional, ensuring timely and accurate implementation of design changes.
• Review the issue management system and follow up on related Engineering Change Orders to resolve design and production issues.
• Devise new design solutions to address engineering and production problems, improving product performance and manufacturability.
• Assist the ongoing Product Improvement team with daily design updates and customizations based on customer requirements.
• Support the Product Development team with new design concepts and engineering input to help build and launch new products.
• Collaborate closely with engineers, production staff, and other personnel to identify, define, and solve technical and process-related problems.
• Work and communicate effectively with other departments, bridging the gap between engineering and production to ensure smooth project execution.
• Contribute to team efforts by accomplishing related engineering and documentation tasks as needed.
• Maintain a safe and healthy work environment by following and enforcing standards, procedures, codes, and applicable regulations.
• Train on internal systems to make drawing changes and engineering updates when not actively assisting production, performing this as a secondary job function.
• Use Microsoft Office and ERP tools to document work, manage data, and support engineering and production processes.
• Perform other related engineering duties as requested, directed, or assigned to support overall business and production goals.

• At least 5 years of hands-on Solid Works experience, including 3D modeling and detailed drawing creation.
• Approximately 47 years of professional experience in mechanical engineering or mechanical design.
• Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering.
• Strong proficiency in 3D solid modeling and CAD-based design for mechanical systems.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic schematics.
• Experience creating and managing Bills of Materials (BOM) for manufactured products.
• Familiarity with Engineering Change Orders (ECO) and related processes.
• Ability to work independently as the sole on-site mechanical engineering resource while collaborating effectively with broader engineering teams.
• Basic knowledge of steel and aluminum manufacturing processes, including sheet metal fabrication, machining, and welding.
• Skill in sheet metal design, water piping, and hose routing.
• Ability to carry out instructions furnished in written, oral, or diagram form.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Demonstrated ability to work within tight deadlines and handle multiple priorities simultaneously.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications.
• Demonstrated ability to work…
