About the Opportunity

Join a high-growth engineering firm specializing in advanced motor and electromechanical systems. In this hands‑on role, you’ll drive mechanical design, testing, and optimization efforts that will directly impact product capability, reliability, and manufacturability. You will collaborate with engineers, manufacturing teams, and leadership to convert technical visions into production‑ready designs in demanding applications.

Primary Responsibilities

Lead mechanical design, prototyping, and production launch for high-performance electric motor systems
Conduct thermal, structural, and electromagnetic simulations to refine system performance
Build and maintain detailed 3D CAD models, assemblies, and mechanical drawings (SolidWorks or equivalent)
Define and select materials (laminations, magnetics, coatings) for optimal performance and manufacturability
Guide design for manufacturability (DFM) and supplier integration to support volume production
Develop and execute test plans to validate designs under normal and fault conditions
Manage BOMs, technical documentation, and revision control
Partner cross-functionally to align mechanical designs with control systems, electrical constraints, and system-level requirements
Participate in project planning, risk assessments, and status reporting for concurrent engineering projects
Mentor junior engineers and promote continuous process improvements in mechanical workflows

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or related discipline
Demonstrated experience in mechanical design and system-level engineering of electric motors, actuators, or electro-mechanical systems
Proficiency with CAD (preferably SolidWorks), GD&T, and mechanical simulation tools
Hands-on experience with prototype assembly, test validation, and iterative design cycles
Strong communication, collaboration, and technical leadership skills
Experience working in regulated environments or quality systems (e.g. ISO, AS9100, ISO 13485) is a plus
Familiarity with costed BOMs, ERP systems, and supplier management

Why This Role Matters

Directly impact next-generation motor and motion solutions in high-stakes domains (aerospace, defense, medical, robotics)
Work with a lean, agile engineering organization where your design decisions are visible to leadership
Potential for performance-based bonuses tied to product success
Opportunity for long-term career growth and technical influence

If you thrive in challenging technical environments, are hands‑on in your engineering approach, and want your work to shape cutting-edge electromechanical systems, we want to hear from you.
