Descrizione del lavoro

Senior Mechanical Engineer

Uniflair Spa is looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to be hired on a full-time employment contract.

The ideal candidate should hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in a related field or, alternatively, a diploma in mechanical engineering.

The selected candidate will be part of an integrated project team (including mechanical, electrical, software, and technical documentation areas) and will be responsible for developing mechanical components using Solid Edge software. Projects may involve the development of new product lines (PMP), sustaining of existing product lines (PEP), or highly customized orders for specific clients (CSP). During project development, the process will start with drafting the refrigeration diagram, and will be followed by the design of 3D/2D models using CAD software such as Solid Edge. The candidate will collaborate with the electrical designer to define shared aspects (e.g., electrical panel positioning, cable routing, etc.) and work closely with the entire team.

The candidate will also handle item coding and the creation/modification of machine BOMs, completing cross‑functional activities on the product portfolio, including the development of welding maps. The selected person will also participate in the upstream phase of the project, designing and developing new products and subassemblies, and validating complex designs and solutions through testing and prototypes development. The adopted solutions must be tested independently and, within the specific area of expertise, with a strong sense of responsibility.

Some activities may also involve coordinating junior mechanical profiles within a project team.

Activities and Responsibilities

Reports to the Resource Manager and aligns with defined design guidelines.

• Oversees the entire project lifecycle, from the development phase (designing the refrigeration circuit through the development of sheet metal parts, piping, etc.) to production, specifically handling:
• 3D modeling using Solid Edge software;
• 2D drafting using CAD tools, including communication with suppliers to clarify any construction‑related doubts;
• Item coding using PLM and AS400 systems.
• Maintains constant communication with the Project Team Leader, discussing technical issues, costs, product performance, and any emerging criticalities.
• Provides hands‑on support during prototype construction, along with technical instructions.
• Interfaces with the Industrialization department to implement changes following prototyping or production, tracked via JIRA or PEP systems.
• Prepares the manufacturing specifications document (CIS) in collaboration with the Production / Factory Engineering Manager, ensuring proper documentation and updates.
• Supports production supervision, especially during the prototyping phase.
• Interfaces with the technical antenna to verify anomalies and deviations in components, and with the Purchasing department to confirm the accuracy and feasibility of supplier quotations.
• Maintains confidentiality of sensitive information throughout all activities.
• Applies and adheres to the 5S methodology.
• Ensures that all activities meet the quality requirements established by the company and those requested by the customer.
• Complies with PED (Pressure Equipment Directive) regulations.
• Supports the creation of technical documentation with images and relevant information.

Required Qualifications

• At least 3 years of experience in mechanical design of industrial machinery (preferably HVAC systems).
• Good knowledge of refrigeration systems for air conditioning.
• Ability to draft refrigeration diagrams in compliance with current regulations.
• Proficiency in reading technical drawings.
• Experience with 3D CAD software (preferably Solid Edge).
• Highly motivated individual with strong problem‑solving skills, capable of working in a dynamic, matrixed environment with multiple stakeholders.
• Strong organizational skills and team‑working abilities.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with strong analytical and synthesis abilities.
• Strong team‑working attitude.
• English language proficiency at B1 level.

What's in it for me?

• Permanent contract;
• Workplace flexibility;
• Exciting work in an international company, with opportunities to lead and contribute to diverse collaborative projects with cross‑regional teams; Special training tailored to your needs and career goals;
• Growth opportunities based on clear development paths;
• An environment where employees have equal opportunities to reach their full potential, depending on their performance and personal aspirations;
• Global Family Leave Program;
• Meal vouchers or canteen meals;
• Stock ownership plans;
• Welfare programs that can be extended to your family;
• Health insurance and professional/non‑professional accident insurance.
