• Evaluate designs for performance, safety, reliability, manufacturability, and technical feasibility.
• Perform engineering analysis to support component selection, system sizing, integration, and material selection.
• Utilize analytical and mathematical approaches to calculate or model system performance and optimize designs.
• Prepare and review engineering layouts, drawings, specifications, and Bills of Material (BOMs).
• Utilize 3D CAD tools to develop and modify mechanical designs.
• Support product changes through established engineering change and documentation processes.
• Troubleshoot hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, and other technical issues.
• Provide timely technical assistance for production and business continuity needs.
• Analyze issues reported to Engineering and communicate technical findings, recommendations, and status.
• Manage individual projects, portions of larger projects, or multiple concurrent engineering assignments.
• Collaborate with engineering disciplines, manufacturing teams, business stakeholders, customers, and external suppliers.
• Maintain project documentation supporting engineering analysis, research, design decisions, and historical records.
• Prepare technical proposals, quotations, reports, presentations, and other engineering documentation.
• Provide guidance or mentorship to entry-level engineers, designers, or technicians working on common projects.
• Perform other related duties as assigned.

Relevant experience may include:

• Hydraulic systems
• Pneumatic systems
• Fluid power systems
• Pumps, valves, cylinders, actuators, accumulators, or related components
• Hydraulic or pneumatic component selection
• Mechanical system design
• System sizing and engineering analysis
• System integration
• Troubleshooting and root-cause analysis
• Production engineering support
• Mobile equipment, automotive, heavy-vehicle, off-highway, or similar mechanical applications

Candidates are not required to have experience across every listed area. Relevant experience in one or more applicable fluid power or mechanical engineering functions may be considered.
