Mechanical Design Engineer II

Generac Power Systems; Pune District; On-site; INR 750,000 - 1,100,000; Full time

Job summary

Generac Power Systems seeks a Mechanical Test Fixture Engineer to design and validate fixtures for PCBAs, full-system tests, and reliability datasets. You will create 3D models, BOMs, and assembly docs, while coordinating with test software and electrical teams to ensure robust, safe tooling in high‑volume production.

Candidate should have a ME degree and strong CAD skills (SolidWorks/Creo), with experience in tolerance analysis, GD&T, and supplier engagement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, or equivalent).
• Experience with tolerance analysis and GD&T.
• Familiarity with high-volume manufacturing environments and supplier management.

Responsibilities

• Design mechanical test fixtures and tooling for manufacturing test equipment supporting PCBAs, full-system EOL testing, reliability setups, and automated validation testers.
• Develop fixture architectures that prioritize reliability, repeatability, maintainability, and operator safety in high-volume production environments.
• Create detailed 3D models, 2D drawings, BOMs, and assembly documentation using CAD tools.
• Generate RFQs and manage vendor engagement for mechanical fixture fabrication, balancing cost, quality, lead time, and long‑term serviceability.
• Collaborate closely with test software, electrical design, manufacturing, and technician teams to ensure fixtures meet all functional and operational requirements.
• Support prototype builds, hands‑on debug, and iterative improvement of fixtures during development and production ramp phases.
• Validate fixture designs through testing, tolerance analysis, and failure mode considerations to ensure long‑term durability and uptime.
• Drive design improvements to reduce changeover time, simplify maintenance, and improve ergonomics and throughput.
• Support deployment of test fixtures to manufacturing sites and contract manufacturers, including on‑site support as needed.
• Maintain thorough documentation for designs, revisions, and lessons learned in alignment with internal standards and best practices.
• Identify cost reduction opportunities through design simplification, part standardization, and supplier optimization.
