Manufacturing Mechanical Engineer -- Conveyance, Filtration and Automation

Job Description

Job DescriptionThe challenge

Capacity is increasing. Product lines are multiplying. We need a mechanical engineer who can transform complex hydraulic, pneumatic, filtration, and conveyance challenges into robust industrial solutions—and do it through disciplined, data-driven engineering. If you’re ready to guide continuous improvement and take on large-scale projects, this is your next step.

How you’ll contribute

• Own the design and modification of mechanical equipment across hydraulic, pneumatic, filtration, and conveyance systems.
• Use Computational Fluid Dynamics to model flow and heat transfer, informing design decisions.
• Conduct feasibility studies, perform calculations, and simulate systems to boost performance and reliability.
• Develop CAD models and release detailed manufacturing/assembly drawings and specifications.
• Triage and correct issues with mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid systems in production.
• Team with controls engineers to align mechanical designs with automation, PLCs, and motion control.
• Maintain compliance with applicable industry standards, safety regulations, and company policy.
• Deliver clear technical documentation, reports, and project updates.
• Partner with vendors to source, evaluate, and qualify components for system enhancements.
• Other duties as assigned.

Minimum requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• 2+ years of mechanical equipment design, modification, or maintenance experience.

Capabilities that matter

• Expertise in hydraulics, pneumatics, filtration, and conveyance.
• CAD proficiency (Fusion 360 or similar) for parametric design and documentation.
• CFD experience (ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, or similar); familiarity with FEA.
• Hands-on machinery troubleshooting, process optimization, and system integration.
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes, materials, and fabrication methods.
• Understanding of industrial automation, PLCs, and motion control systems.
• Skill in diagnosing mechanical and fluid failures and implementing corrective actions.
• Experience within heavy industrial, material handling, or processing sectors.
• Background with lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, or reliability engineering.
• Weld design experience.
• Practical PLC integration and control programming exposure.
• Project management, organization, time management, problem solving, and core software skills to support data-driven decisions.

Bonus points if you’re proficient in

• PLC Troubleshooting Skills
• Pneumatics Experience
• Hydraulics Experience
• CAD Software
• Design for Manufacturability (DFM)
• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
• Pneumatics Troubleshooting

Technologies you’ll use

• CAD Software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks)
