Mechanical Engineer

Mechanical Engineer

This Mechanical Engineer role focuses on designing and developing automated mechanical equipment and purification systems using Solid Works, while working hands-on with equipment throughout its lifecycle from concept to commissioning. You will create and maintain detailed engineering documentation, collaborate closely with manufacturing technicians and cross-functional teams, and troubleshoot both mechanical and some electrical issues to ensure reliable, high-performance systems.

Responsibilities

• Design mechanical equipment, assemblies, frames, piping layouts, and components using Solid Works.
• Develop and maintain engineering drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), and manufacturing documentation to support production and lifecycle management.
• Design and modify automated process equipment and purification systems to meet performance, reliability, and safety requirements.
• Improve and standardize existing equipment designs to enhance manufacturability, serviceability, and scalability.
• Participate in new product and system development, including new product introduction (NPI) activities.
• Integrate pumps, valves, motors, variable frequency drives (VFDs), sensors, transmitters, and other instrumentation into mechanical and automated systems.
• Work directly with manufacturing technicians during equipment assembly, providing guidance and resolving build issues in real time.
• Troubleshoot mechanical and some electrical issues on equipment, identify root causes, and implement effective corrective actions.
• Work with customers, vendors, technicians, and other engineers to solve technical problems and support successful equipment deployment.
• Build and prototype systems and equipment, applying a hands-on approach to integration and factory acceptance testing (FAT).
• Dig into complex technical problems, determine why issues are occurring, and drive solutions to the root cause.
• Take ownership of projects, manage technical deliverables, and independently move work forward in an ambiguous, fast-paced environment.
• Contribute to the development of standardized or configurable equipment platforms that can be efficiently manufactured and deployed.
• Support equipment through concept, design, fabrication, programming, testing, and commissioning, ensuring performance meets specifications.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electromechanical Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Proficiency in Solid Works for mechanical design, including experience designing mechanical equipment, OEM machinery, or industrial equipment.
• Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills with the ability to diagnose and resolve equipment issues.
• Hands-on ability to build, integrate, and prototype systems, working directly with physical equipment rather than solely from a desk.
• Strong understanding of bills of materials (BOMs) and BOM structure, including how they support manufacturing and configuration.
• Ability to independently solve technical problems, take ownership of projects, and work effectively in an ambiguous environment.
• Self-starter mentality with the ability to learn independently and adapt to evolving technologies and requirements.
• Comfort working with automated equipment, machinery, robots, and industrial equipment in a practical, hands-on setting.

Additional Qualifications

• 3–7+ years of experience designing or developing automated equipment.
• Experience with robot and machine design, OEM equipment, and industrial machinery.
• Experience programming or troubleshooting PLCs and understanding PLC-based control systems.
• Understanding of industrial automation and control systems, including sensors,…
