Mechanical Engineer – Engine & Equipment Controls

Location: San Antonio, TX

Job Type: Full-time, On-Site 

Compensation: $80,000+, Commensurate with experience 

About This Opportunity

An established manufacturer of electronic control systems and electrification solutions for industrial, off-highway, agricultural, and commercial vehicle equipment is looking for a Mechanical Engineer for their growing engineering team in San Antonio, TX. This is a hands-on design role on a fast-moving product development team, with direct, close-in access to leadership and customers from day one.

What You'll Do

• Design mechanical and electro-mechanical components used in engine control systems and battery enclosures for demanding industrial and off-highway applications
• Lead design analysis (FEA, CFD), design reviews, DFMEA/PFMEA, and DFM reviews for new components
• Design for harsh operating environments — high vibration, extreme temperatures, and high mechanical stress
• Apply GD&T and tight-tolerance design practices to ensure components perform reliably in the field
• Work in aluminum, sheet metal, and plastic injection-molded materials, including seal design and leak testing
• Collaborate cross-functionally with supply chain, manufacturing, and quality teams, and interact directly with customers and suppliers on technical topics
• Move fluidly across multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced product development environment

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field (MS a plus)
• Hands-on experience personally designing mechanical components — not just managing or coordinating a design effort
• Experience designing components for harsh/industrial environments: engines, off-highway equipment, oil & gas, or similar
• Strong working knowledge of GD&T
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities across multiple projects
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary, commensurate with experience — the client has indicated they intend to pay above typical market averages for the right candidate. Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates relocating to the San Antonio area.

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage, including an HSA-qualified plan option with employer contributions
• Employer-paid basic life/AD&D coverage, plus short- and long-term disability coverage at no cost to employees
• 401(k) retirement plan with an employer match up to 6% of pay
• Paid vacation/PTO, paid holidays, paid parental leave, and bereavement leave
• Tuition reimbursement and scholarship program
• Wellness program, including a quarterly wellness bonus and an Employee Assistance Program
