Work remotely from anywhere in the Midwest while owning high-impact hydraulic design projects that improve the factory equipment behind modern manufacturing.
About the Position:We are hiring a Hydraulics Systems Designer to take ownership of the hydraulic systems and test circuits behind critical factory equipment. This is an opportunity to bring essential design work in-house, make a visible impact on machine upgrades across multiple plants, and help projects move faster with stronger accountability from concept through completion.
Key Responsibilities:- Own the design and development of hydraulic systems and test circuits for industrial, factory-based equipment.
- Create clear, accurate hydraulic drawings and design documentation that support build, troubleshooting, and upgrades.
- Lead hydraulic-focused projects from initial requirements through execution, coordination, and completion.
- Partner closely with mechanical, controls, and electrical engineering teammates to deliver integrated machine solutions.
- Support hydraulic upgrades at plants and help ensure projects are delivered on time, with strong technical ownership and minimal supervision.
- At least five years of experience designing hydraulic equipment for manufacturing, industrial, or other factory environments.
- Hands-on CAD experience, with Solid Works experience preferred and the ability to learn new design tools quickly.
- Strong AutoCAD experience creating and interpreting hydraulic drawings.
- A demonstrated ability to lead projects, coordinate technical stakeholders, and keep work moving toward completion.
- A degree is not required when supported by the relevant hands-on experience and technical capability.
This is more than a design seat. You will have the autonomy to own meaningful hydraulic work that has historically been outsourced, while gaining a strong cross-functional platform to lead projects and grow your influence. We offer a remote work arrangement, a base salary of $120,000 to $140,000, lump-sum relocation support for the right candidate, and occasional travel of approximately one week per quarter.
