Kforce has a client that is seeking a Mechanical Engineer III in Florance, SC. Overview: The primary responsibility is to evaluate and report the impact of changes, whether from a part or sub-system, to the elevator system envelopes. The Engineer may need to develop dimensional studies (including 3D modeling), performance studies, cost benefit analysis, prototyping, test plans, or code requirement studies of all affected sub-system(s). The System Engineer should also be able to collect elevator requirements from all the stakeholders, and then de-compose these into requirements for the specific sub-systems.

The candidate should have a strong mechanical engineering background with complex system level integration experience. The candidate will participate in product support activities where prior experience with root cause analysis, priority assessment, DFMEA, DFM, and other engineering tools is desired. This position will also require implementation of Engineering Change notices, so a strong background/experience of engineering implementation process is desired.

  • MS degree with 4 years of experience
  • Sound mechanical engineering background (mechanical and system modeling and design, component modeling and design)
