We re committed to making a positive impact on the world, providing you with diverse learning and working opportunities, and fostering a culture where everyone s empowered to be their best. This is a lead-level engineering position responsible for driving the design, development, and sustenance of construction and building envelope products for Hohmann & Barnard, Inc. The role requires technical leadership in sheet metal and structural component design, with a strong focus on fabrication readiness, material optimization, and product cost-efficiency. He/ She will lead end-to-end design initiatives, guide junior engineers, and collaborate with cross-functional teams including manufacturing, quality, sourcing, and suppliers. The position demands hands-on proficiency in CAD tools, DFM/DFA principles, and fabrication processes, along with a working exposure to FEA and design validation techniques. This role is central to delivering innovative, production-ready, and cost-effective solutions in support of H&B s strategic product portfolio. Key Responsibilities / Functions: Lead the design and development of construction products , structural assemblies, and custom sheet metal components (e.g., wall reinforcements, anchors, brackets). Oversee the creation of detailed 2D and 3D CAD models , flat patterns, and manufacturing-ready drawings using tools such as AutoCAD and Revit . Manage product lifecycles from concept to production , including prototyping, testing, validation, and manufacturing handoff. Ensure engineering deliverables meet design intent , cost , and manufacturability requirements , with adherence to quality standards. Perform or review design calculations , and guide FEA simulations (using tools like ANSYS or Inventor Nastran) to validate structural performance and compliance. Champion DFM/DFA principles , value engineering (VAVE) , and standardization efforts to optimize designs for scalability and cost-efficiency. Lead the preparation and maintenance of accurate BOMs , technical specifications , and engineering documentation , including ECNs and revision control. Collaborate closely with manufacturing, procurement, quality, and global engineering teams to ensure seamless design-to-production transitions. Review and improve nesting strategies and part design to ensure efficient CNC fabrication and minimal material waste. Mentor and support junior engineers and CAD designers, fostering a high-performance team environment. Stay up to date with fabrication techniques , materials , industry trends , and emerging design technologies relevant to metal construction products. Required Qualifications: (Education, Technical Skills/Knowledge) Hands-on experience in product and structural design , specifically within metal fabrication , machined components , or other industrial products. Expert-level proficiency in AutoCAD for 2D modeling and flat pattern development; working knowledge of Revit for handling BIM including design, visualize and collaborate structural designs. Strong experience in performing engineering design calculations including structural load estimations and basic stress analysis. In-depth understanding of metal processing techniques cutting, forming, punching, and welding and their impact on design feasibility. Proficient in GD&T , tolerance stack-up analysis , DFM/DFA , and DFMEA methodologies to ensure robust and production-ready designs. Comprehensive knowledge of fabrication processes including laser/plasma cutting , bending , welding , and machining , with awareness of shop-floor constraints. Solid understanding of material behavior , coating/finishing processes (e.g., powder coating, galvanizing), and their influence on durability and performance. Proficiency in BOM management , part numbering systems , and revision control . Experience supporting manufacturing, prototyping , and first-article testing , translating design intent into production-ready deliverables. Familiarity with cost estimation , value engineering , and VAVE techniques for driving product affordability and standardization. Ability to independently plan, coordinate, and execute development projects spanning new product introductions, redesigns, cost optimizations, and engineering analysis. Proven experience in mentoring junior engineers , reviewing their work, and conducting technical design reviews to ensure quality and consistency. Prior experience working in a global engineering environment with collaboration across multi-site including virtual coordination and occasional travel. Following receipt of a conditional offer of employment, candidates will be required to complete additional job-related screening processes as permitted or required by applicable law .
