Job Description

• Design and optimize mechanical structures for power distribution and diesel generator containers, ensuring compliance with ISO 668 standards.
• Conduct structural simulations (FEA) to validate performance under seismic (Level 8), wind (Typhoon Level 14), and waterproof (IP55+) conditions.
• Calculate airflow requirements and optimize air channels for generator cooling; integrate noise control solutions to meet 85dB(A) @1m.
• Design for corrosion and dust protection in harsh environments such as coastal or desert areas.
• Plan equipment layout with adequate service space (min. 600mm), and incorporate user-friendly features like sliding bases and quick-release panels.
• Select suitable materials with a balance of strength, weight, and cost; define anti-corrosion processes to meet 15-year durability targets.
• Use SolidWorks/Revit to generate 3D models, fabrication drawings, and BOMs; support manufacturing through detailed documentation and cross-team coordination.
• Participate in design analysis, supplier evaluation, production support, and continuous process improvement.
• Prepare and manage technical documents including SOPs, DFMEA/PFMEA, and validation reports.
• Assist in project planning, cost control, risk management, and support ad hoc tasks as assigned.

Job Requirements

• Bachelors degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Design, Power Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 3 years of experience in mechanical design, preferably in modular power containers or high-power electrical enclosures.
