What are the responsibilities and job description for the Mechanical Engineer position at Hunter International Recruiting?
The Mechanical Engineer will be responsible for dynamics in electro-mechanical product design. They will interact with other team members: sales, marketing, manufacturing, and quality assurance to design and test new products and maintain existing products in a concurrent engineering environment.
Mechanical Engineer Responsibilities:
- Design of new product data including mechanical models and drawings, simulations as required, sketches, and bills of material which meet or exceed provided performance and cost criteria. Contribute to product strategy development and portfolio planning.
- Consistently demonstrates extremely high levels of technical knowledge, ingenuity, and creativity.
- Translate conceptual designs into a fully detailed CAD representation.
- Train people outside his/her work group.
- Give presentations to critical/high level customers and effectively represent team in design reviews and cross organizational teams.
- Establish clear communication between Engineering groups and NPI members to establish an integrated, coherent product and project execution.
- Ensure that the system satisfies the customer’s requirements, with the least economic impact on the company, and directs the team in instances of under design, scope creep and over design.
- Act as a mentor to other engineers to help improve and develop their engineering skills.
- Widely recognized as a technical expert within the professional community.
- Technical assistance to sales, customer service and customers as required.
- Technical support and sustaining engineering for manufacturing operations.
- Technical support to purchasing for vendor or parts selection.
- Administrative support to the Engineering Manager for project data maintenance.
- Other responsibilities as determined by the Team Lead/Manager.
Mechanical Engineer Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering
- 15 years plus experience in mechanical engineering
- Advanced understanding of modern 3D CAD and data management tools (i.e. Solid Edge, ERP, Design Manager, and PCBA import)
- Advanced understanding of detailed drafting techniques (i.e. tolerances, surface finish, GD&T, BOM’s and revision control)
- Advanced understanding of mechanical design techniques (i.e. electronic assemblies, sheet metal fabrication, machined parts, injection molded parts, tolerance stack up and design for manufacturability).
- Advanced understanding of simulation tools for thermal dynamics, fluid dynamics and stress/strain analysis of assemblies. (i.e. FEA, and Simscale).
- Broad knowledge about the design and operation of systems outside of specialty.
