Senior Mechanical Engineer

A leading engineering design organization based in Little Canada, MN , we specialize in the development of industrial systems, heavy mobile equipment, and advanced mechanical technologies for demanding field environments. Our work centers on designing and engineering robust, high‑performance mobile machinery used across the construction, forestry, agricultural, and energy sectors . Our engineering teams combine deep mechanical design expertise , hands‑on prototyping , and rigorous validation to solve complex structural, hydraulic, drivetrain, and motion‑control challenges. If you excel at designing large‑scale mobile platforms , off‑highway machinery , or field‑deployed mechanical systems , you will thrive here.

This role requires daily onsite collaboration at our Little Canada, MN facility to support prototype builds, design reviews, equipment tear‑downs, and cross‑functional engineering activities.

Role Overview

As a Senior Mechanical Engineer , you will lead the design, optimization, and validation of advanced mobile mechanical systems used in demanding industrial and oil & gas applications. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys hands‑on problem‑solving, mechanical creativity, and building equipment that performs reliably in high‑pressure, high‑load, and high‑cycle environments.

This position is 100% on‑site at our Minneapolis-St. Paul facility. No remote or hybrid work is available.
