  • Competitive Pay : Earn $70,000- $100,000+ per year (depending on your experience). 
  • Comprehensive Benefits Package : Access to a full range of benefits that support your health, well-being, and future. ( Link to benefits overview ).

  • A Culture of Safety & Teamwork : At RCE, we prioritize safety and foster a collaborative team environment that works together to get the job done and ensure customer satisfaction.

The Role
We're on the hunt for a Mechanical Engineer to join our crew of innovators! If you enjoy designing cutting-edge equipment and thrive on improving existing designs, this is the place for you. At RCE, you’ll dive into exciting projects where your ideas will turn into the real-world tools that help keep the railways running.

  • Collaborate with our engineering team to design and develop new rail construction equipment and tools.
  • Put your creativity to the test as you improve and optimize our existing products. Experience with AutoCAD Mechanical Desktop/Inventor is required.

  • Five years of experience strongly preferred. Design experience in rail or heavy equipment industry a plus.
  • A problem-solver who loves digging into new challenges and improving existing designs. 
  • Strong collaboration skills—you're a team player, and you love turning ideas into reality.
  • Capable of writing operation manuals and service bulletins.
  • Areas of knowledge that are helpful: machining and fabrication operations regarding a weldment; operation and capabilities of construction equipment; and hydraulic and electrical systems.
