Mechanical Design Engineer

High Voltage Circuit Breakers ( Either Dead Tank Circuit Breaker/ Live Tank Circuit Breaker)

Job Location: Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Experience: 4 to 9 Years
Qualification: B.E./B.Tech/M.E./ M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering

Industry: Power Infrastructure | Electrical Equipment | Energy Technology

Function: Mechanical Design | Product Engineering | R&D

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Our client is a fast-growing power infrastructure and energy technology company specialising in the development and engineering of critical electrical equipment for modern power transmission and utility networks.

The organisation focuses on advanced high-voltage equipment and complex engineering solutions that support grid reliability, operational safety and the evolving requirements of the global energy sector.

With a strong emphasis on engineering excellence, product innovation and quality, the company offers professionals an opportunity to contribute to the design and development of sophisticated high-voltage products.

ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a technically strong Mechanical Design Engineer High Voltage Circuit Breakers to join the product engineering team.

The role involves mechanical design, structural analysis, dimensional tolerancing, manufacturability assessment and qualification of high-voltage circuit breaker components and assemblies, particularly Dead Tank Circuit Breakers (DTCB).

The ideal candidate will have hands‑on experience in

• High‑voltage product design
• Mechanical engineering analysis
• CAD/CAE tools and applicable IEC/IEEE standards
• Along with the ability to collaborate with manufacturing, testing and cross‑functional engineering teams

KEY ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES

• Mechanical Product Design: Develop and evaluate mechanical designs for high-voltage circuit breaker components and assemblies, ensuring structural integrity, functional reliability and manufacturability.
• Mechanical & Structural Analysis: Perform fundamental mechanical and structural assessments to evaluate component strength, deformation, load‑bearing capability and design suitability.
• Dimensional Engineering & GD&T: Define component dimensions, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), ISO GPS requirements, fits and clearances to ensure accurate manufacturing and assembly.
• Interrupter / Arc Chamber Interfaces: Analyze component interfaces, clearances and dimensional requirements that support the intended operation of the arc chamber and interrupter assembly under dynamic switching conditions.
• Manufacturing & Assembly Support: Establish manufacturing tolerances and assembly requirements, review production‑related design challenges, and recommend appropriate engineering solutions.
• Type Testing & Product Qualification: Define and support component and assembly qualification requirements, including applicable type‑test and routine‑test requirements under relevant IEC/IEEE standards and customer specifications.
• Design Validation: Evaluate product design parameters and engineering documentation to establish compliance with applicable technical and performance requirements.
• Customer Requirement Review: Review customer specifications, assess design suitability, identify technical gaps and support engineering teams in developing compliant solutions.
• Cross‑functional Collaboration: Work closely with manufacturing, quality, testing, product engineering and other stakeholders to resolve technical queries and ensure smooth product development and qualification.
• Technical Documentation: Prepare and review engineering drawings, design calculations, analysis reports, dimensional specifications and related technical documents.

REQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

• B.E./B.Tech/M.E./ M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering.
• 4 TO 9 years of relevant experience in high-voltage product design, preferably high-voltage circuit breakers or dead tank circuit breakers.
• Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, structural integrity, dimensional engineering, tolerances and clearances.
• Practical knowledge of GD&T and ISO GPS.
• Experience with engineering software such as ANSYS, Pro/MECHANICA, SOLIDWORKS or equivalent CAD/CAE tools.
• Understanding of high-voltage circuit‑breaker components, mechanical assemblies and manufacturing processes.
• Exposure to IEC/IEEE standards, type testing, product qualification and validation of high‑voltage electrical equipment.
• Ability to analyse manufacturing or assembly issues and recommend technically sound corrective actions.
• Good communication, analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• Willingness to travel approximately 20% as required.

PREFERRED CANDIDATE PROFILE

Candidates with hands‑on mechanical product design experience in high‑voltage circuit breakers, DTCB/HVCB assemblies or closely related high‑voltage switchgear products will be preferred.

Experience in general mechanical design, automotive components, HVAC, machine design or substation project engineering alone may not be sufficient without relevant high‑voltage product engineering exposure.
