Position Responsibilities:

This engineer will drive electro-mechanical product and technology development from early-stage concepts through production launch and continuous improvement. The position blends hands-on R&D with systems-level engineering, integrating mechanical designs, electronics, sensing, controls, and connected technologies into practical, production-ready solutions.

• Design electro-mechanical products, subsystems, test fixtures, and technology demonstrators based on customer, market, and technical requirements.
• Integrate mechanical components with sensors, motors, actuators, switches, controls, power supplies, wiring, communications, and embedded or connected devices.
• Develop mechanical designs, assemblies, engineering drawings, specifications, schematics, wiring diagrams, and bills of material.
• Apply engineering principles addressing tolerances, motion, loading, thermal conditions, environmental factors, electrical requirements, and product safety.
• Plan and execute prototype builds, bench testing, design verification, validation activities, and field trials.
• Develop test methods, fixtures, data-acquisition approaches, acceptance criteria, and supporting technical documentation.
• Analyze test results, perform root-cause investigations, resolve technical issues, and implement corrective design actions.
• Collaborate across R&D, product management, manufacturing, sales, service, suppliers, and global technical teams throughout development.
• Support design reviews, Stage-Gate reviews, risk assessments, cost reviews, production-readiness activities, pilot builds, and product launches.
• Partner with manufacturing engineering to improve manufacturability, assembly, inspection, serviceability, reliability, and cost.
• Research emerging technologies involving automation, sensing, controls, robotics, connected products, and advanced manufacturing.
• Generate and evaluate new concepts through structured experimentation and rapid prototyping while identifying potentially patentable innovations.
• Engage with customers and end users to understand applications, observe product performance, and validate engineering solutions.
• Support troubleshooting and continuous improvement of released products when specialized engineering expertise is required.

Position requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Electro-Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of experience developing electro-mechanical products, equipment, automation, or engineered systems within a manufacturing environment.
• Demonstrated experience integrating mechanical designs with electrical components, sensors, actuators, motors, controls, or embedded systems.
• Experience with 3D CAD, engineering drawings, bills of material, prototyping, testing, and design documentation.
• Experience using Planview Project Advantage or a comparable project-management platform to manage technical tasks, milestones, risks, and deliverables.
• Experience working within a formal Stage-Gate product-development process, including technical deliverables, gate preparation, reviews, and follow-through.
• Working knowledge of design for manufacturability, structured problem-solving, and product-validation methodologies.
• Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting abilities with a systems-level engineering approach.
• Hands-on capability in prototyping, experimentation, testing, troubleshooting, and laboratory environments.
• Ability to translate ambiguous customer or market needs into measurable and testable engineering requirements.
• Ability to independently plan technical work, manage competing priorities, meet commitments, and communicate risks effectively.
• Strong written, verbal, presentation, and technical-documentation skills.
• Ability to interpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, specifications, test data, and manufacturing documentation.
• Customer-focused approach with a strong commitment to safety, quality, ownership, innovation, and continuous improvement.

Preferred Requirements:

• Experience with SolidWorks, SolidWorks PDM, electrical schematic tools, or comparable engineering software.
• Experience within tooling, machining, metal forming, industrial equipment, robotics, automation, or discrete manufacturing environments.
• Familiarity with PLCs, embedded controllers, industrial communications, data acquisition, or connected-product technologies.
• Familiarity with FMEA, tolerance analysis, statistical methods, Lean product development, or Design for Six Sigma.
• Experience collaborating with suppliers, customers, global teams, intellectual-property activities, or regulated product requirements.

Reasons to Apply:

• Competitive salary plus a comprehensive benefits package.
• Health coverage, retirement plans, and other company-sponsored perks.
• Generous paid time off, including holidays, to support work-life balance.
• Flexible schedules and work life balance.
• Strong focus on employee development with on-the-job training and career growth.
• A positive company culture that values diversity and collaboration.
