Senior Mechanical Design Engineer – Electrical Enclosures

Global Power Components; Milwaukee (WI); Vor Ort; USD 140.000 - 190.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Global Power Components in Milwaukee, WI is seeking a Principal Mechanical Design Engineer to lead the mechanical design and analysis of electrical power distribution enclosures. You will own enclosure integrity, short-circuit withstand, thermal management, and validation, collaborating with product, certification, and manufacturing teams to deliver robust, production-ready solutions.

The role requires deep expertise in enclosure design, sheet metal fabrication, and advanced simulations (ANSYS).

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• 12+ years of direct design experience with enclosures for electrical power distribution equipment.
• Experience with ANSYS or comparable simulation software.
• Experience modeling thermal performance, airflow, heat transfer, and temperature rise in enclosed electrical equipment.
• Experience owning the mechanical design through analysis, prototype, certification testing, and production release.
• Deep knowledge of fabricated sheet metal structures, welded assemblies, bolted joints, materials, tolerances, and manufacturing.
• Ability to make and defend technical decisions using calculations, simulations, test evidence, and sound engineering judgment.

Aufgaben

• Own the mechanical and thermal portions of verification plans, design reviews, instrumentation, acceptance criteria, and failure analysis.
• Provide mechanical and thermal technical leadership before, during, and after product and certification testing.
• Partner with the product-development engineer to meet product-layout and performance requirements while developing and validating the enclosure and structural design.
• Work directly with manufacturing on sheet metal fabrication, welding, hardware, assembly, finishing, prototypes, first builds, and design-for-manufacturing improvements.
• Document assumptions, calculations, analysis results, design decisions, and lessons learned so they become part of the product-development system.
