Mechanical Design Engineer

Our client is seeking a detail-oriented Mechanical Design Engineer to support reverse engineering, product reliability, and the design of precision-machined parts and mechanical assemblies. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys analyzing physical components, interpreting technical information, solving complex problems, and owning projects from initial evaluation through manufacturing.

• Analyze sample parts, mechanical components, and machinery to understand their design, function, and manufacturing requirements.
• Reverse-engineer existing components using physical samples, measurements, drawings, and other available technical information.
• Interpret customer specifications, engineering drawings, inspection data, and technical documentation.
• Design precision-machined parts and mechanical assemblies according to customer requirements.
• Create accurate 3D CAD models and detailed manufacturing drawings.
• Develop inspection plans that clearly communicate dimensional and quality requirements.
• Evaluate designs for manufacturability, reliability, function, and long-term performance.
• Identify missing, conflicting, or incomplete design information and determine the appropriate solution.
• Collaborate with customers, vendors, manufacturing, inspection, and other internal team members.
• Respond to technical questions and resolve engineering or production issues.
• Organize project requirements, establish priorities, and independently manage work through completion.
• Maintain accuracy and attention to detail while supporting multiple projects and deadlines.

• Advanced mechanical-engineering knowledge gained through a bachelor's degree, equivalent education, or relevant professional experience.
• Experience creating 3D CAD models and detailed engineering drawings.
• Understanding of mechanical components, assemblies, tolerances, and manufacturing processes.
• Experience with reverse engineering, part analysis, machine design, manufacturing, inspection, control systems, or project management is strongly preferred.
• Ability to analyze physical parts and translate findings into accurate manufacturing documentation.
• Strong analytical and technical problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to learn new products, processes, and customer requirements quickly.
• Strong organizational skills and consistent project follow-through.
• Excellent attention to detail and recall.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with customers, vendors, and internal teams.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Proactive, conscientious, accountable, and solutions-oriented work style.
