Sr. Mechanical Engineer

Sr. Mechanical Engineer

Position Overview
We are seeking a Sr. Mechanical Engineer focused on machine design to lead the development of automated production equipment and robotic cells. The role owns mechanical design from concept through installation and commissioning, delivering reliable motion-controlled systems (gantry machines, robotic cells, and custom automation) using SolidWorks and engineering analysis (FEA, CFD). You will collaborate with controls, electrical, manufacturing, and suppliers to meet performance, safety, cost, and schedule targets while mentoring junior engineers.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead mechanical design and development of automated machinery and robotic cells from concept through build and field commissioning.
• Create, validate, and release 3D SolidWorks models, detailed drawings, BOMs, and specifications for fabrication and assembly.
• Design motion-controlled equipment including selection/specification of motors, drives, actuators, gearboxes, bearings, and feedback devices.
• Architect and specify gantry systems, machine frames, enclosures, fixturing, end-of-arm tooling, and material handling interfaces.
• Perform engineering analysis (FEA and CFD) to validate structural integrity, thermal management, and dynamic behavior; iterate designs to meet safety and performance requirements.
• Work closely with controls and electrical teams to integrate motion control, sensors, and safety systems, including defining interfaces and requirements.
• Oversee prototyping, lab testing, and field commissioning; lead root cause investigations and implement design improvements.
• Generate manufacturing-ready documentation, tolerance stack-ups, and assembly/installation instructions; support suppliers and manufacturing partners.
• Ensure compliance with applicable standards and machinery safety directives (e.g., ISO, ANSI, CE), and participate in risk assessments (FMEA, etc.).
• Manage project schedules and budgets for assigned machine design work; communicate status and risks to stakeholders.
• Mentor and train junior mechanical engineers and CAD technicians; promote design best practices and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (MS preferred) or related field.
• 7 years of hands-on experience designing automated machinery and machine systems in an industrial environment.
• Proven proficiency in SolidWorks for 3D modeling, assemblies, and drawing release.
• Demonstrated experience designing robotic cells, gantry machines, and other motion-controlled equipment.
• Hands-on experience with motion control components (servo motors, drives, controllers, encoders) and mechanical power transmission.
• Practical experience performing FEA and CFD analyses to support design decisions and product validation.
• Strong knowledge of manufacturing methods, welding, tolerancing (GD&T), and materials selection.
• Experience preparing BOMs, procurement specifications, and manufacturing drawings.
• Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work in cross-functional teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and experience leading technical meetings and design reviews.
• Willingness to travel to supplier sites and customer locations as required.
• Nice-to-have: Licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) or actively pursuing licensure, and successful completion of the FE exam (EIT) or working toward it.
