About the role:

We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer with strong expertise in 2D/3D design and automation equipment assembly. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of developing cost-effective mechanical solutions, supporting automation integration, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. Candidates with electrical/control system knowledge will be highly valued.

Key responsibilities:

• Design and develop mechanical components, mechanisms, and products for industrial automation applications.
• Develop dynamic mechanical mechanisms involving motion, actuation, linkages, pulleys, gears, belts, and other motion-related systems.
• Create and maintain 3D CAD models, assemblies, and 2D engineering drawings.
• Evaluate assembly sequence, mechanical interfaces, clearances, tolerances, and manufacturability.
• Work directly with U.S. customer engineers to understand application requirements and resolve mechanical design issues.
• Act as a technical bridge between North American customers and engineering teams in Taiwan to drive joint design activities and issue resolution.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with EE, firmware, test, manufacturing, sourcing, and other engineering teams.
• Participate in design reviews, technical discussions, and problem-solving activities across multiple teams and locations.
• Apply fundamental mechanics and engineering principles to practical product design challenges.
• Occasionally participate in international conference calls outside normal business hours to coordinate with global engineering teams.
• Travel occasionally to customer sites and application locations to understand system requirements and support design activities.
• Support prototype builds, testing, troubleshooting, and design improvements throughout the product development cycle.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• 3+ years of mechanical engineering experience, preferably in product design, industrial automation, robotics, motion systems, or related industries.
• Strong experience with 3D CAD modeling and mechanical assemblies. (Creo/SolidWorks)
• Solid understanding of 2D engineering drawings, dimensions, tolerances, and mechanical interfaces.
• Able to understand and define assembly sequences and mechanical integration requirements.
• Strong understanding of engineering mechanics and the ability to apply mechanical principles to real-world design problems.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to work effectively across U.S. and international engineering teams.
• Comfortable working in a cross-functional and collaborative environment.
• Willingness to travel occasionally to customer sites.
• Willingness to participate in occasional evening international conference calls.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with industrial automation equipment or automated production lines.
• Previous experience in mechanical product design and development.
• Experience designing dynamic mechanisms or motion systems.
• Experience with mechanical simulation / structural analysis / FEA.
• Experience with mechatronic system integration.
