Job Description

The Opportunity:

This isn’t a “behind-the-desk” design role. You’ll collaborate with project managers, sales, quality teams, procurement, and production to bring designs to life—ensuring they’re not just innovative but also practical, manufacturable, and aligned with real-world customer needs.

  • Lead mechanical design efforts from concept to completion
  • Partner with internal teams and clients to define project goals
  • Design and refine components using SolidWorks, AutoCAD Inventor, and Vault
  • Guide and mentor junior engineers and CAD designers
  • Ensure designs meet UL compliance standards and customer specifications
  • Deliver detailed documentation, BOMs, and design packages
  • Troubleshoot issues during production and drive continuous improvement
  • Maintain design control and manage changes effectively
  • Occasionally travel to support project implementation or client visits

What You Bring:

  • B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (ABET-accredited)
  • 8+ years of experience in mechanical/electromechanical system design
  • Proficiency with SolidWorks, AutoCAD Inventor, and MS Office Suite
  • Working knowledge of UL codes (UL 891, UL 1558, UL 1008, etc.) is a plus
  • Strong understanding of electrical enclosures and power distribution equipment
  • A collaborative, problem-solving mindset with excellent communication skills

What’s In It For You:

Competitive salary + full benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision)

401k match, PTO, Life Insurance

Tuition Reimbursement for continued growth

Work on industry-leading products with a cross-functional team

Be a mentor and a maker—your voice will be heard
