Our purpose is to be the solution when every minute matters. We seek a candidate that is self-inspired to learn and demonstrates a high degree of customer service while positively contributing to our team.Mechanical Engineers (ME) work is a critical function in the engineering process, being responsible for taking designs from concept through full production documentation. Accuracy and completeness must be maintained through all levels of design to provide complete Bill of Materials (BOMs) and production worthy CAD models/ drawings to the manufacturing teams. All ME deliverables must meet or exceed Nomad Global Communication Solutions’ standards of excellence.Mechanical Engineers must apply practical engineering science and technologies to designs. These include application of fluid mechanics, materials, structures, dynamics, basic electrical theory, and machine component design. Expertise in raw material selection, manufacturing processes (welding, machining, & sheet metal), quality control, and concentration on cost mitigation are also core required competencies.Depending on level (I–V), Engineers progress from learning foundational engineering practices and supporting designs to independently leading complex platform architectures, mentoring others, and driving technical strategy across the organization.Career Growth: Mechanical Engineers at Nomad GCS progress through five levels based on demonstrated technical mastery, independence, leadership, and impact. Advancement is supported through mentorship, project ownership, and alignment with Nomad’s Core Values.Organizational Structure: Nomad Engineering is organized into Teams and Disciplines within the Innovative Solutions Division.Teams:Team 1 (Standards and Modularity): Builds and maintains engineering standards, modules, templates, and rules enabling repeatability and scale.Team 2 (Design): Executes project-level engineering using established standards and less complex custom configurations.Team 3 (Advanced): Develops novel systems and resolves first-of-kind engineering challenges.Team 4 (Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering): Ensures manufacturability, safety, engineering intent, efficiency, and continuous improvement throughout Production.Disciplines:Mechanical EngineeringElectrical EngineeringIT EngineeringHuman Factors EngineeringSoftware EngineeringA Mechanical Engineer may be temporarily assigned to one or more of the four Teams. These teams include Standards & Modularity, Design Engineering, Advanced Engineering, and/or Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering.Core Responsibilities – All Levels:Design, develop, and support mechanical systems for Nomad vehicles and platforms.Ensure designs comply with applicable codes, safety standards, and customer requirements.Support manufacturing by answering technical questions, resolving build issues, and improving design clarity.Participate in design reviews, testing, validation, and root cause analysis.Collaborate cross-functionally with other Engineering disciplines, Production, Quality, and Project Management teams.Apply continuous improvement principles to improve product quality, reliability, and manufacturability.Uphold and model Nomad Core Values in all work.Create CAD documentation for projects, including top levels assemblies, sub-assemblies, and parts.Use FEA to analyze designs: determine stress, create tests to verify results, document analysis, and change designs as needed to optimize.Create, implement, supervise, and document tests verifying designs meet customer requirements.Complete all analyses, documentation, and drawings required for Production within established time frames as agreed upon by the Operations Team.Communicate with vendors and clients to troubleshoot designs, get information on new designs, and obtain specifications/drawings/models of components.Track and record work hours for each specific project daily.Be willing to travel as needed by Management.Perform additional duties as assigned.Mechanical Engineer IV – Senior Technical LeadOwn mechanical system architecture across multiple product lines or platforms.Set design standards, guidelines, and best practices for the organization.Experience defining system architectures reused across multiple products or programs.Lead high-risk or highly complex engineering efforts from concept through production.Deep familiarity with compliance, certification, and safety-critical design processes.Ownership of technical decision-making where failure would have significant cost or safety impact.Experience balancing competing constraints (schedule, cost, performance, manufacturability).Drive design decisions impacting safety, reliability, compliance, and scalability.Serve as a primary technical authority for mechanical systems at Nomad GCS.Coach and mentor engineers across all levels.Influence engineering strategy, tooling, and long-term technical direction.Recognized internally as a go-to expert for complex engineering challenges.Demonstrated technical mastery.BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field8-12+ years advanced Mechanical Engineering experience.Progression signal: Others rely on this engineer’s judgment to make irreversible or high-impact decisions.BenefitsMedical, Dental & Vision Insurance CoverageLife/ADD & Short/Long Term Disability Insurance401(k) Savings PlanEmployee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)Paid Time-Off (PTO)HolidaysEducation Reimbursement
