DGM - Mechanical Design (Agricultural & Residential Pumps)

Role Overview:

DGM Mechanical Design

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and manage the

  mechanical design team

  for agricultural and residential pump products.
• Drive

  concept-to-production design activities

  , including design validation and testing.
• Develop

  2D/3D models, assemblies, and detailed drawings

  using CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, AutoCAD, etc.).
• Ensure compliance with

  industry standards (ISI, BIS, ISO, CE, etc.)

  and internal quality benchmarks.
• Optimize product design for

  performance, cost, manufacturability, and serviceability.

• Conduct

  hydraulic design and performance calculations

  for different pump types (centrifugal, monoblock, submersible, etc.).
• Collaborate with

  R&D, Quality, Manufacturing, and Procurement

  teams for product development and continuous improvement.
• Oversee

  prototype development, testing, and validation

  activities.
• Drive

  VA/VE (Value Analysis/Value Engineering)

  initiatives to reduce cost and improve efficiency.
• Support

  vendor development

  and technical evaluation of components and materials.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers to build a strong mechanical design capability.
  

Required Skills & Competencies:

• Strong knowledge of

  pump hydraulics, mechanical systems, materials, and casting design.

• Proficiency in

  CAD tools

  (SolidWorks, Creo, AutoCAD, NX, etc.).
• Exposure to

  CFD/FEA analysis

  for performance and structural validation.
• Understanding of

  motor-pump integration, sealing systems, impeller and volute design.

• Strong

  project management and leadership skills.
