Key Responsibilities

Design & Development Collaborate with senior engineers to brainstorm mechanical concepts and contribute to detailed mechanical designs for new products and enhancements.
CAD Modeling & Prototyping Develop and maintain complex 3D models using SolidWorks. Use these models to drive hands-on prototyping and validation processes.
Design Optimization Develop your understanding of Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles, applying foundational concepts to design tasks with mentorship from manufacturing teams.
Analysis & Validation Conduct engineering analyses, including the application of Design tolerance and stack up analysis, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), to ensure component fit and function. Assist in setting up and running basic Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulations, working closely with senior analysts to interpret data and validate structural performance.
Documentation Support the engineering team by executing 2D drawings, Engineering Change Orders (ECOs), and Bills of Materials (BOMs), learning the company's documentation and quality review processes.
Manufacturing & Assembly Manufacture and assemble production components, applying strong hands-on skills and expertise in using hand tools and shop equipment.
Cross-functional Collaboration Collaborate effectively with Software, System, manufacturing, testing, and other cross-functional teams to successfully transition designs from concept through full production.

Requirements

Recent graduate of year 2025 and 2024.
BSc in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
0-1 years of experience in mechanical design or product development engineering.
Proficiency in 3D CAD software, specifically SolidWorks. [CATIA v5 is a Bonus].
Proficiency in generating accurate 2D drawings and applying Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) standards.
Good understanding and practical application of mechanical design principles, including DFM and DFA.
Preferable previous professional experience working directly with manufacturing processes.
Demonstrated experience and hands-on skills in component manufacturing, assembly, and use of hand tools.
