The Sr. Design Engineer, Diesel Integration leads the mechanical and system-level integration of diesel powerplants into Rogers Machinery’s portable air compressor product line. This role owns the engine-to-package design — cooling, exhaust, fuel, and structural/enclosure integration — ensuring every diesel-driven unit performs reliably in the field. This is a hands‑on, technically driven individual‑contributor role. Works closely with the controls and electrical teams supporting each design.

Must be able to work under minimal supervision of the department manager.

• Define product scope via sales order, rough sketches, or verbal instructions.
• Develop and validate engine-to-system integration layouts for portable air compressor packages, including cooling, intake, exhaust/aftertreatment, fuel, lubrication, and control systems.
• Verify diesel engines are properly matched to compressor and driven equipment, considering power curves, duty cycles, load requirements, and environmental/field conditions, drawing on diesel engine platform experience (Cummins preferred; CAT and Volvo a plus).
• Develop design solutions for thermal management, vibration, and sound dampening; conduct system-level analysis and verification.
• Design and integrate enclosure, sheet metal, and structural components that house and protect the diesel powerplant within the portable package.
• Develop and manage product designs, schematics, validation procedures and testing.
• Manage BOMs, validation reports, and compliance requirements on diesel-powered products.
• Collaborate with controls and electrical engineers to define engine, controls, and electrical requirements and integrate them into the package design.
• Support and conduct system-level troubleshooting of engine operation within the equipment, including load response, transient performance, and fault detection.
• Lead design release process, certification testing, and production release.
• Coordinate and manage simultaneous projects, sustaining and new product development.
• Act as a diesel integration ambassador by defining and promoting best practices and standards for integrating diesel powerplants into portable industrial equipment.

Additional

Job Duties:

• Support production, field commissioning, and troubleshooting of diesel-powered installations.
• Define retrofit kits, system upgrades, and modifications to ensure performance or lifecycle across the powerplant lineup.
• Provide support for sales, service, cost estimates, design consultation, and installations.
• Identify alternate integration methods or components to reduce cost, lead time, or supply risk.
• Provide guidance and training to junior team members and supporting departments.
