Job Description

M&T Mechanical Designer

The mission of the Machine & Tool Division (M&T) is to contribute to North America DENSO through automation solutions and expertise.

Job Summary

At the Machinery & Tools Division, we’re driving innovation in the automotive industry with cutting-edge technology and a commitment to excellence. We’re seeking a talented Mechanical Designer with a passion for factory automation and a knack for detail to join our dynamic team. If you thrive in a collaborative environment, have a keen mechanical intuition, and are ready to lead projects while continually learning and growing, we want to hear from you! As a Mechanical Designer, you will play a crucial role in our operations team and will contribute to the creation of efficient, high-performance solutions. We are looking for a detail-oriented individual with strong analytical problem-solving skills and a capacity to drive projects with effective leadership and teamwork.

Position Responsibilities:

• Onsite investigation to build a true understanding of customer problems and project scope (some travel may be required).
• Create a solution through concept development, cost estimation and preparation of design review documents that clearly summarize these details.
• Present design reviews, on assigned machines, with customers and division management.
• Execute the mechanical design -- including, but not limited to: creating 3D model (in SolidWorks) that matches concept, specification of purchased components, creation of assembly drawings and fabricated parts drawings.
• Work with electrical engineering to develop controls concept for the machine and prepare documents that relay needed information.
• Work closely with build technicians to develop countermeasures to mechanical problems that occur during machine construction.
• Update final drawing package and create operation manual for the completed machine.
• On-Site machine modification investigation support (some travel may be required).
  
  

Core Values

• Attention to Detail – Design is in the details and that’s where we find excellence. No matter what project phase, an eye for the details will be the difference between success and failure. Whether it’s a spec requirement, a small drawing feature or finding the true root cause when solving problems, a designer must maintain focus on these details.
• Humility – Humble engineers are approachable, value diverse perspectives, and foster a collaborative environment. They acknowledge their mistakes, seek constructive criticism, and are genuinely interested in the success and well-being of their team and organization rather than just their own personal gain.
• Growth Mindset – This refers to the belief that skills, abilities, and intelligence can be developed through dedication, effort, and learning. It is characterized by a knowledge that there is always room for growth and improvement as well as a deep desire for this continual learning. Individuals with a growth mindset view challenges as opportunities for development rather than threats, and they are resilient in the face of setbacks.
  
  

Minimum Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering from ABET accredited university.
• 1-5 years relevant professional experience (Co-op or internship are acceptable).
• Proficient in SolidWorks.
