Job description
About the role
Technical responsibility for all mechanical and mechanics challenges, including structural design, component selection, assembly, and integration into working setups and prototypes. Full ownership of the design process from conceptual design through detailed engineering and production documentation. Collaboration in a multidisciplinary environment with metallurgists, chemists, process engineers, and electrical engineers. Ability to perform FEA analysis and validate results. Hands-on mechanical work for prototyping and proof-of-concept development. Responsible for transfer to production while ensuring compliance with safety and regulatory standards.
What you'll do
Core Responsibilities
1. Mechanical Design & Engineering Ownership
End-to-End Design: Full ownership of the mechanical design lifecycle, from initial conceptualization to detailed 3D modeling and engineering.
Structural Integrity: Leading structural design and material considerations to ensure robust mechanical solutions.
Documentation: Generating and managing comprehensive production documentation, including BOMs, assembly instructions, and technical drawings.
Component Selection: Identifying and sourcing optimal mechanical components and hardware.
2. Prototyping & Hands-on Development
POC Development: Building and testing Proof-of-Concept (POC) models to evaluate feasibility.
Assembly & Integration: Executing hands-on mechanical assembly and integrating mechanical systems into complex working setups.
Troubleshooting: Diagnosing and resolving mechanical challenges during the prototyping phase.
3. Multidisciplinary Collaboration
Cross-Functional Synergy: Partnering with metallurgists, chemists, and process engineers to align mechanical designs with chemical/material requirements.
Systems Integration: Collaborating with electrical engineers to ensure seamless electro-mechanical interfaces.
4. Production & Lifecycle Management
Transfer to Production (NPI): Managing the transition of prototypes into scalable production-ready products.
Continuous Improvement: Addressing mechanical challenges identified during the manufacturing or deployment stages.
