Role Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Design Engineer with 6–8 years of experience in electro-mechanical product development. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in designing and packaging electronic systems including cameras, PCB assemblies, and industrial enclosures, with a deep understanding of manufacturing processes and cross-functional collaboration.

Key Responsibilities

Electro-Mechanical Packaging

• Design and develop electro-mechanical assemblies including:

> Camera modules and vision systems

> Powder/liquid distribution units

> PCB mounting structures and brackets

> Wiring harness routing and connector integration

• Develop robust enclosure designs meeting IP69K standards for harsh environments
• Ensure proper sealing strategies (gaskets, O-rings, adhesives, venting solutions)

Thermal Management & Simulation

• Design and validate thermal solutions for electronic systems including PCBs and GPUs
• Perform CFD and thermal simulations using:

> SolidWorks Simulation / Flow Simulation

> ANSYS Workbench

• Analyze heat dissipation, airflow, and temperature distribution
• Correlate simulation results with physical testing and improve designs
• Work closely with electronics teams to ensure thermal reliability

Mechanical Design & Manufacturing

• Design parts and assemblies using:

> Sheet metal (bending, welding, tolerance stack-up)

> Machined components (CNC, precision fits)

> Plastics (injection molding, DFMA considerations)

• Apply DFM/DFA principles for cost-effective and manufacturable designs
• Select materials, finishes, and treatments based on environmental and functional requirements

PCB Integration & Assembly

• Define mechanical interfaces for PCB mounting and integration
• Ensure proper stack-up, grounding, shielding, and accessibility
• Collaborate with PCB design teams for layout constraints and enclosure fitment

Drawings & Documentation

• Create detailed 2D drawings with GD&T in accordance with standards
• Develop complete assembly instructions and work instructions
• Maintain BOMs, design documentation, and revision control

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Lead and participate in design discussions with:

• Electronics (PCB, firmware teams)
• Manufacturing and suppliers
• Quality and testing teams
• Drive design reviews and ensure closure of action items
• Communicate design intent clearly across teams

Validation & Testing

• Support prototype builds and validation testing
• Perform root cause analysis (RCA) and implement design improvements
• Ensure designs meet reliability, environmental, and regulatory requirements

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering
• 6–8 years of experience in electro-mechanical product design
• Strong experience in:
• Enclosure design (preferably IP-rated systems)
• PCB packaging and integration
• Harness and connector design
• Proficiency in CAD tools (SolidWorks / Creo / NX or equivalent)
• Strong understanding of:

> GD&T and tolerance stack-up

> Manufacturing processes (sheet metal, machining, plastics)

> Thermal management of electronics

Preferred Skills

• Experience with IP69K or similar high-ingress protection designs
• Exposure to simulation tools (thermal/structural)
• Knowledge of EMI/EMC considerations in enclosure design
• Experience in industries such as AgTech, Automotive, Robotics, or Industrial Equipment

Key Competencies

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Ability to drive design discussions and decisions
• Effective cross-functional communication
• Attention to detail and documentation rigor
• Ownership mindset with ability to work independently

Nice to Have

• Experience working with global suppliers and manufacturing teams
• Exposure to product lifecycle management (PLM) tools
• Hands-on experience in prototype builds and testing
