We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to join our team, focused on the design and development of medium-voltage switchgear systems. This role involves creating and maintaining detailed 3D models, 2D drawings, and manufacturing documentation using CAD tools. You'll play a key role in the product lifecycle, collaborating cross-functionally with engineering, production, and quality teams to deliver reliable and efficient power distribution equipment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain 3D CAD models and 2D manufacturing drawings for MV switchgear components.
• Design custom sheet metal parts, busbars, and enclosure assemblies per project requirements.
• Generate and manage Bills of Materials (BOMs), engineering change orders, and technical documentation.
• Collaborate with production and engineering teams to resolve design issues and implement redlines from the shop floor.
• Interpret project specifications, industry standards (e.g., UL 891), and customer requirements to ensure compliance.
• Support the creation of project documentation and production assets.
• Communicate effectively with internal teams, vendors, and clients throughout the project lifecycle.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or an associate degree with 2+ years of relevant design experience.
• Proficient in 3D CAD software (Autodesk Inventor preferred; SolidWorks acceptable).
• Experience designing sheet metal and copper busbar components.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, tolerances, and DFM principles.
• Ability to create detailed, production-ready drawings and technical documentation.

Preferred Experience:

• Background in medium-voltage switchgear or switchboard design.
• Knowledge of UL 891, ISO 9001, and lean manufacturing principles.
• Familiarity with ERP systems and engineering change workflows.
• Experience working in a fast-paced, multi-project environment.
