Mechanical Design Engineer

Von Ormy, TX
Full Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    SUMMARY

    We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer who can translate customer specs, engineering standards, and real-world challenges into clear, accurate, buildable designs. You’ll work across engineering, manufacturing, and project management teams to ensure our enclosures are not only functional but exceptional.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    • Interpret customer specifications and internal requirements to develop 3D models and 2D fabrication drawings
    • Collaborate with engineers and project managers to ensure accuracy, manufacturability, and completeness
    • Own the quality of your work—proactively identify issues before they hit the shop floor
    • Use SolidWorks and DraftSight (or similar software) to generate and revise technical drawings
    • Build a detailed Bill of Materials (BOMs) in alignment with production and procurement needs
    • Apply knowledge of structural, mechanical, or electrical principles to enclosure layout and component integration
    • Maintain consistent drawing standards and adhere to internal QC processes
    • Support ongoing product improvements and design optimization efforts

    REQUIREMENTS

    • Proficiency in SolidWorks, DraftSight, or similar CAD platforms
    • Strong 3D visualization and interpretation skills
    • Deep understanding of design for manufacturability
    • Familiarity with structural and mechanical design; electrical design is a plus
    • Experience supporting or working alongside manufacturing teams
    • Self-motivation, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to work under pressure without compromising quality
    • Experience in emergency power systems or generator enclosures is highly desirable
    • Degree in Mechanical Engineering is preferred—but equivalent experience in custom manufacturing or design is welcomed
    • PE license is a bonus, not a requirement
    • Mostly office-based (design and CAD work), with regular visits to the shop floor to validate designs
    • Occasional travel may be required for site visits, customer collaboration, or vendor coordination
    • Ability to climb ladders, walk fabrication lines, or inspect enclosures during and after build
