Mechanical Design Engineer

Mechanical Design Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, model, and develop mechanical components and assemblies using CAD tools.
• Perform simulation to validate the performance and robustness of the design, not limited to structural, thermal and vibrational analysis.
• Coordinate with vendors, machinists, and fabricators for manufacturing and prototyping.
• Lead prototype development, assembly, and testing, ensuring quick design iteration cycles.
• Prepare detailed engineering documentation, including 3D models, 2D drafts, and assembly instructions.
• Select and validate appropriate materials and manufacturing methods.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with electronics and software teams to integrate complete mechatronic systems.

Key Requirements:

• 1–3 years

  of hands-on experience in

  mechanical design

  ,

  prototyping

  , and

  simulation

  .
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Mechatronics/Automobile Engineering
• Experience in a

  startup or R&D environment

  with

  multi-role responsibilities

  - from concept to prototype validation.

Technical Skills:

• Proficiency in

  AutoCAD, SolidWorks, CATIA, and Fusion 360

  .
• Proficiency in

  FEA / simulation

  tools like

  ANSYS

  ,

  COMSOL

  , or

  LS-Dyna

  for structural and thermal analysis.
• Solid understanding of

  GD&T

  ,

  tolerance stack-up

  , and

  mechanical calculations

  .
• Experience with

  Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA)

  and design validation for

  (3-5 axis) CNC

  , sheet metal, and fabrication processes.
• Practical understanding of

  mechanical assembly, alignment, and field testing

  .
• Strong problem-solving ability for real-time design challenges amidst constrains.

Additional good to have skills [Any]:

• Knowledge of

  Python/MATLAB

  for simple automation or data analysis.
• Hands-on experience with

  prototype building.

  (e.g., FDM and STL 3D printers, laser cutters)
• Experience in electronics packaging and sensor/mechatronic system integration.
• Familiarity with cost optimization and design improvement strategies.
