Job description

The Mechanical/Mechatronics Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and supporting mechanical and electromechanical systems used across new product development, automation, and production environments. This role combines mechanical design expertise with hands-on fabrication knowledge and systems integration skills, ensuring that equipment, components, and assemblies meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.

Design & Development

• Design and develop mechanical and mechatronic systems, assemblies, and components—including mechanisms, fixtures, automation systems, and tooling.
• Apply mechanical engineering principles in combination with electrical, pneumatic, and control elements to create integrated solutions.
• Generate 3D models, detailed drawings, BOMs, and fabrication specifications.
• Develop and prototype custom parts using welding, forming, machining, cutting, and other metal fabrication processes.
• Provide mechanical and mechatronic support throughout all phases of new product development.

Fabrication & Manufacturing Support

• Collaborate with internal and external fabrication teams to ensure manufacturability, proper material selection, and adherence to specifications.
• Provide technical support to production, maintenance, and engineering teams for equipment installation, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.
• Improve existing systems through design modifications, component upgrades, and performance optimization.
• Create assembly procedures, test plans, and standard work instructions.

Systems Integration & Testing

• Integrate sensors, actuators, motors, pneumatic systems, and control hardware into mechanical assemblies.
• Execute system testing, debugging, validation, and performance optimization.
• Conduct root-cause analysis (RCA) and implement corrective actions for mechanical and electromechanical failures.
• Work closely with automation, electrical, and controls engineers to ensure cohesive system functionality.

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or related field.
• Strong mechanical design background with hands‑on knowledge of welding, machining, forming, cutting, and standard fabrication practices.
• Proficiency with 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks, Inventor, or CREO.
• Familiarity with electrical/controls fundamentals (PLC interfaces, sensors, actuators, wiring basics).
• Experience with automation systems, robotics, pneumatics, or electromechanical devices preferred.
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, fabrication prints, and schematics.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills for mechanical and electromechanical systems.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines.
• Ability to manage multiple projects in a fast‑paced environment and meet deadlines.
• Hands‑on aptitude for prototyping, assembly, and testing.
