We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Mechanical Design and Assembly Engineer with a solid foundation in Mechanical Design, Manufacturing, Mechatronics, Control Systems, and Structural Analysis. The ideal candidate is a Mechanical Design Engineer with hands-on experience in designing and assembling rotating precision devices, such as electric motor test benches, spindle systems, or drivetrain components. The individual must possess strong expertise in vibration and structural analysis, ensuring mechanical stability and performance at high-speed operation.
They should have a solid foundation in mechanical design, precision assembly, and manufacturing processes, along with practical experience using CAD and FEA tools (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, ANSYS). A background in mechatronics and motion control systems will be a strong advantage.
This role suits an engineer who enjoys working on end-to-end product development — from concept design and analysis to manufacturing, assembly, and testing — with a focus on accuracy, reliability, and performance optimization in rotating machinery applications.
