Mechatronics Design Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Engineering Design & Product Development: Design mechanical assemblies and systems using SolidWorks while developing detailed engineering drawings and bills of materials.
• Apply a strong understanding of industrial electrical components—including heaters, sensors, thermocouples, wiring, relays, switches, and control components—to ensure designs are functional, manufacturable, and standardized.
• Component Standardization: Evaluate existing products and establish preferred mechanical and electrical components to reduce part variation, simplify purchasing, improve serviceability, and promote reuse across product lines.
• CAD & Engineering Documentation: Create and maintain accurate 3D models, manufacturing drawings, configurable assemblies, engineering documentation, and standardized CAD libraries.
• Process Development: Develop engineering standards, design guidelines, and documentation processes that improve design consistency, reduce engineering time, and support efficient manufacturing.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to reduce cost and improve manufacturability through value engineering, product simplification, and increased utilization of obsolete and slow-moving inventory.
• Manufacturing Support: Collaborate with Production, Purchasing, and Quality to resolve manufacturing issues, improve assembly processes, and support new product introductions.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Engineering, Operations, Sales, and Supply Chain to develop practical solutions that improve product quality, manufacturing efficiency, and customer satisfaction.

Requirements

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Experience: 5+ years of engineering experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Software Proficiency: Advanced proficiency in SolidWorks and experience creating detailed engineering drawings and bills of materials.
• Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, industrial electrical components, manufacturing processes, and design for manufacturability (DFM).
• Continuous Improvement: Experience with Lean Manufacturing, process improvement, value engineering, and component standardization is preferred.
• Communication: Strong problem-solving, organizational, and cross-functional communication skills.
