Job Description

About the Role

We're looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our R&D function and take ownership of product development — from first concept sketch to certified, production-ready design. This isn't a routine drafting role: you'll be at the center of how our products evolve, working on real engineering problems that shape what gets manufactured, tested, and shipped to EPC and industrial customers globally.

Job Responsibilities

• Lead R&D initiatives to design and develop new products and product variants using 3D CAD (SolidWorks) — from concept through to production-ready drawings with proper tolerancing and revision control
• Research materials, manufacturing methods, and industry standards (e.g. NEMA VE1, IEC 61537) to push product performance, strength-to-weight ratio, and cost-efficiency forward
• Translate customer and market requirements into innovative, manufacturable engineering solutions
• Design and build testing jigs, fixtures, and validation setups to physically prove out new designs
• Prepare and maintain detailed engineering, fabrication, and assembly drawings, along with technical documentation (installation guides, load rating datasheets, product specs)
• Drive continuous improvement of existing products for manufacturability, performance, and quality
• Benchmark competitor products and emerging designs to identify opportunities for differentiation
• Provide technical support to Production, Sales, and Customers during design, fabrication, and installation
• Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure new designs move smoothly from prototype to full production
• Contribute ideas and lead initiatives as part of the company's broader innovation and engineering roadmap

Job Requirements

• Genuine curiosity for engineering — someone who enjoys prototyping, testing, and iterating, not just drafting to spec
• Proficiency in at least one major CAD software (SolidWorks preferred)
• Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to think independently and propose practical, tested solutions
• Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field
• Hands-on understanding of fabrication processes (sheet metal, welding, machining) is a strong advantage
• Positive, proactive "can-do" attitude with a willingness to experiment and learn from failure
