Job description

Role & responsibilities

1. New Product Design & Development

• Conceptualize and design new motors, alternators, and associated sheet metal components (enclosures, housings, brackets, covers, cooling systems, etc.).
• Perform detailed 3D modeling and 2D drafting with complete GD&T for manufacturability.
• Conduct design feasibility studies considering cost, weight, performance, and manufacturing constraints.
• Work with cross-functional teams (R&D, Production, Supply Chain, QA) to translate requirements into manufacturable designs.
• Support prototyping, assembly trials, and validation testing of new designs.

2. Updating & Improving Existing Designs

• Evaluate existing designs and implement improvements for performance, reliability, and cost optimization.
• Modify sheet metal designs to meet new customer requirements, regulatory changes, or updated specifications.
• Resolve design-related issues identified during production or field performance.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives for standardization and modularization.

3. Process Flow & Manufacturing Support

• Develop detailed process flows, fabrication sequences, and assembly instructions for sheet metal components and motor sub-assemblies.
• Define manufacturing tolerances, welding requirements, and surface treatment specifications.
• Provide technical support to production teams to resolve fabrication or assembly challenges.
• Collaborate with vendors/suppliers for tooling, sheet metal part development, and cost optimization.

4. Engineering Documentation & Compliance

• Create and maintain engineering drawings, BOMs (Bill of Materials), and PLM entries.
• Prepare design calculation reports, tolerance stack-up studies, and validation documentation.
• Support Engineering Change Orders (ECO) and configuration management.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards (IEC, NEMA, IS) and internal quality systems.

5. Cross-functional Collaboration & Testing

• Work with testing teams to define validation plans (vibration, thermal, strength, and noise testing).
• Analyse test results and implement design improvements.
• Provide technical inputs during customer discussions, audits, and design reviews.
• Support field service and customer teams with technical troubleshooting.

Preferred candidate profile

• Bachelors or Masters degree in mechanical engineering, or a related field.
• 2-7 years of design engineering experience in motors, alternators, or related rotating electrical machines..
