Jobbeschreibung

Mechatronics Engineer (Graduate, Junior, Mid or Senior)

Element Engineering Australia is fast becoming one of the world's leading product development houses. We help clients from all over the globe utilise cutting-edge technology in their designs and user experiences. With projects spanning Industrial Equipment Design, Bespoke Robotics, Rugged Industrial Automation Equipment and Consumer Electronic Products, there's no shortage of interesting challenges at Element Engineering.

We possess all equipment in-house to produce prototypes to our designs, and test them in the fastest possible timeframe, as well as undertaking volume production once designs are tried and tested.

We have a high-end 5-axis DMG Mori DMU 50 CNC milling machine as well as a DMG Mori NLX 2500 CNC Y-axis lathe, allowing for rapid prototyping as well as producing quality parts for our clients and projects.

We also have 3D printing facilities, workshop fabrication facilities, laboratory testing type facilities, in-house anodising laboratory and injection moulding; all of which become part of our day-to-day work at Element Engineering, helping local industry create high value products, and manufacture locally as well.

Some of Our Projects

Projects we work on range from:

Autonomous vehicles for mining

Robotic machines for industry

Rugged IoT sensors for Oil & Gas

...and so much more, all undertaken to extremely high quality within a growing multidisciplinary team.

The Role

We are seeking Graduate, Junior, Mid-Level and Senior Mechatronics Engineers to join our team and help out on some exciting projects. We are getting busy, and we want engineers to grow alongside our current team while possessing the aptitude and determination to tackle whatever engineering challenges are thrown at them.

We are open to engineers at every level, from Graduate to Senior. If you are a recent graduate: we hire on capability, not years. A strong portfolio and the right attitude count for more here than time served. Above all, we hire people who are personable: easy to work with, and good with clients and colleagues.

This is an AI augmented role. Our team works alongside AI agents in Element's own BusMin system, so the agents take on routine work and you spend more of your time on real engineering.

This is a holistic role. You will see a product from manufacturing all the way through to design and back again, because we believe that is how the best mechatronics engineers are developed. For the right person, the role may become primarily machining based or primarily design based, but it always keeps a hands-on part.

As part of our day to day mechatronics engineering work, our engineers are tasked with all stages of the design process; from CAD modelling, to liaising with our clients, applying Australian and International Standards, design analysis using our suite of analysis software, documentation and interfacing with workshop staff and other manufacturers.

You will:

Carry out CAD design and modelling across a range of design and product development jobs

Produce manufacture drawings in line with company and Australian Standards requirements

Use a range of Australian and International Standards to ensure compliance of various products and structures

Use state-of-the-art analysis software (FEA and CFD) and systems to design and optimise our clients' products

Compile engineering documentation in line with company processes and standards

Interface with clients and suppliers on a day to day basis, providing them with ongoing support and project deliverables

Interface with workshop staff to successfully design for manufacturability

Interface with team members from other disciplines such as Mechanical Engineers, Electronics Engineers and Industrial Designers

Be trained in our workshop and operate (not program) our DMG Mori DMU 50 and DMG Mori NLX 2500 machines when required

About You

You will have:

Being personable comes first: people enjoy working with you, you are easy to talk to, and you are at your best with clients, suppliers and the team. Capability comes right behind it.

Motivation and a passion for engineering, and the drive to excel in your role

A Bachelor of Mechatronics, Mechanical or Electronics Engineering degree or higher education

Demonstrated proficiency in SolidWorks for 3D modelling, with CSWA SolidWorks certification as a minimum. SolidWorks is a requirement of this role.

Flexibility to move between design, analysis, documentation and the workshop as projects need it, and to pick up new tools quickly

Strong written and verbal communication skills, to work and interface closely with clients, suppliers and engineers from other disciplines

An understanding of both Australian and International Standards, and how to interpret them

A team-first attitude and can work well with others

Demonstrated competence and ability to work in a team environment

A sound understanding of engineering analysis methods (ANSYS FEA experience desirable)

A portfolio of your design work is a required part of your application. Attach it to your SEEK application or include a link in your Resume or Cover Letter. Applications without a portfolio cannot be considered.

We want to see what you can do, SolidWorks in particular. Present professional, extra curricular or university engineering work in your chosen field, with a clear account of the work you specifically undertook on each project. Examples must demonstrate real involvement, critical thinking and attention to detail. University projects are acceptable if they are significant and you can explain the decisions, trade-offs and outcomes.

Highly Desired

Hands-on experience working with tools and mechanical assembly, including personal projects or university projects

At Interview

Shortlisted candidates will be expected to demonstrate within the interview:

How to model a specified 3D object using SolidWorks CAD software and a provided set of drawings

A sample engineering report or the like to demonstrate written communication skills required for the role

Why Join Element Engineering

Diverse, Rewarding Projects: join our enthusiastic team of engineers and work across a diverse range of challenging but rewarding engineering design projects

Genuine Mentorship: you will work closely with our Senior Mechanical Engineers as well as Workshop staff, who will mentor you and bring you up to speed across our suite of engineering design tools and internal processes to allow you to become truly proficient in your role

Work Alongside AI: our team works with AI agents in Element's own BusMin system, so you spend less time on routine work and more on real engineering

Design and Make: be trained in our workshop and see your own designs through manufacture, all under one roof

Fast Experience: ongoing exposure to new design challenges, application of different technologies and various clients means work always remains exciting and you will quickly gain experience across a broad range of scenarios

Guided Onboarding: our onboarding process will ensure our successful applicants are guided through each set of processes we have internally developed and enforced as part of our daily engineering operations, allowing them to carry out their roles with confidence

Exceptional Culture: a charismatic and diverse team with many social events, amazing clients from all around the world, and the development of our own product suite as part of a newly formed additional company. Being part of the Element Engineering team is more than just a job.
