Senior Mechanical Project Design Engineer
We’re seeking a Senior Mechanical Project Design Engineer to join an established engineering and manufacturing team in Boxborough, MA. This is a hands-on technical role for an experienced mechanical engineer who enjoys designing complex products, solving difficult manufacturing challenges, and taking designs from concept through production.
What You’ll Do
- Lead the mechanical design of complex mechanical and electromechanical products from concept through production release.
- Create detailed SolidWorks models, assemblies, drawings, configurations, and tolerance analyses.
- Design components involving machining, sheet metal, welding, plastics, and integrated electronics.
- Work closely with manufacturing to improve DFM/DFA, manufacturability, assembly, quality, cost, and reliability.
- Troubleshoot challenging design and production issues and drive solutions through implementation.
- Manage engineering changes, BOMs, product configurations, and design documentation.
- Provide technical guidance to other engineers and help improve CAD, drafting, tolerance, and design standards.
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
- 7 years of mechanical design, product design, sustaining engineering, or product development experience in a manufacturing environment.
- Advanced SolidWorks skills, including complex assemblies and detailed manufacturing drawings.
- Strong knowledge of GD&T, tolerance analysis, DFM/DFA, and manufacturing processes.
- Experience designing parts produced through machining, sheet metal, welding, molding, casting, and/or assembly.
- Experience with PDM/PLM, BOMs, ERP systems, and engineering change processes.
- Experience taking physical products from design through production release.
Especially Relevant Experience
Background designing industrial equipment, sensors, instrumentation, fluid-handling products, automation equipment, medical devices, or other complex electromechanical products would translate especially well.
This is an excellent opportunity for a senior-level engineer who wants to remain hands-on with design while taking technical ownership of challenging products and manufacturing problems
