Mechanical Engineer

About the role

This position is responsible for designing custom switchboards and switchgear, creating bills of materials, developing drawings, seeking alternative components, helping production and other engineering related activities. Utilize 'design for manufacturing' principles to reduce system complexity and build time. Designing modular components to reduce manufacturing cost and decrease custom fabrication lead times. Your work will be exciting and varied working on projects which require knowledge of applications, electrical/electronics, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and safety.

Responsibilities

• Analyze project proposals and use power distribution and product knowledge to develop solutions.
• Create mechanical parts for switchboards and switchgear manufacturability by using CAD software.
• Generate bills of material and modify standard assemblies to suit the project requirements.
• Interact with electrical/mechanical engineering group and production team to design solutions for production.
• Interpret customer bid package drawings, electrical one-line diagrams, plan layouts and specifications.
• Support Maverick’s manufacturing, testing, quality, and field service teams to ensure proper implementation of designs.
• Perform other job-related duties as assigned.

Qualifications

• Experience working in a manufacturing environment, 2 years minimum.
• Experience with Solidworks modeling software.
• Experience interpreting electrical schematic drawings.
• Experience with designing and modeling parts and assemblies given basic conceptual information.
• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with 7 years or more experience.
• Strong problem solving & interpersonal skills.
• Able to interact with engineering and manufacturing personnel.
• Must be able to effectively utilize time.
• Working knowledge of UL 891, UL 508A, IEEE/ANSI, and NEC/NFPA 70E standards.
• Knowledge of low voltage switchboard (UL891)/ switchgear design (UL1558), installation, and use.
• Knowledge of local, state, and federal codes governing the installation and use of low voltage switchgear.
• Ability to interpret basic electrical diagrams including front elevation, one-line, and schematic drawings.
• Excellent problem resolution skills.
