What is the difference between Engineer Torque vs Mechanical Engineer?

AspectEngineer TorqueMechanical Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's in Mechanical or related field, certifications like PE or torque-specific trainingBachelor's or higher in Mechanical Engineering, PE license often preferred
Work EnvironmentManufacturing, automotive, aerospace settings focusing on torque application and testingDesign, analysis, manufacturing across various industries
Industry UsageSpecialized in torque-related roles within mechanical systemsBroader mechanical systems design and analysis

Engineer Torque focuses on torque application, testing, and calibration within mechanical systems, often requiring specialized torque knowledge. Mechanical Engineers have a broader scope, including design, analysis, and manufacturing of mechanical systems. Both roles share similar credentials but differ in specialization and work environment.

Job description

About Zap Energy
Zap is advancing the next generation of nuclear power technology across fusion, fission and hybrid applications. Built on an integrated platform of high-energy-density physics and pulsed power, liquid metals and advanced materials, and compact, modular systems, Zap is building the foundational technologies needed to deploy the energy sources of the future.
About the Opportunity
As a Senior Mechanical Engineer on our Fusion Pulsed Power team, you'll contribute to the mechanical design of high-voltage pulsed power systems from concept through fabrication and integration. You'll work closely with electrical, plasma, and systems engineers to develop hardware that operates at the edge of what's physically possible.
Role Responsibilities
  • Design pulsed power systems, subassemblies, enclosures, structural components, electrical bus work, pneumatics, and tooling and integration hardware
  • Translate design requirements into mechanical hardware that meets functional, spatial, safety, and operational constraints
  • Produce complete SolidWorks part, assembly, and drawing packages with detailed instructions and GD&T callouts appropriate to function and manufacturability
  • Iterate and update designs based on redlines and feedback from manufacturing and operations
  • Own design decisions around material selection, fastener torque specifications, and tolerance stack-ups
  • Apply DFM and DFA methodologies to meet schedules and enable rapid, in-house builds
  • Compile information on and present your designs concisely for design reviews
  • Provide substantive technical feedback on other engineers' designs, both within and outside the Pulsed Power team
  • Perform formal drawing review redlines as part of the release process
  • Collaborate across electrical, controls, manufacturing, and systems engineering disciplines to resolve interface and integration challenges
  • Provide mentorship to junior level engineers on the team

Qualifications and Skills
  • Bachelor's degree in an Engineering field required
  • 7+ years of mechanical engineering experience with a strong hands-on track record
  • Strong SolidWorks proficiency in parts, assemblies, drawings, and PDM
  • Practical working knowledge of GD&T (ASME Y14.5)
  • Experience designing for high-voltage environments; pulsed power, or energy storage is a strong bonus
  • Demonstrated ability to take designs from concept to fabricated hardware quickly
  • Experience collaborating through a work management system, such as Jira, to manage tasks including Engineering Change Requests and Quality Management System tickets
  • Confidence in making engineering decisions around materials, fastening, and structural adequacy
  • Experience with configuration management
  • Ability to perform first-order structural and mechanical load analyses; FEA experience is a bonus
  • Familiarity with designing for a variety of manufacturing processes including sheet metal work, welding, water jet cutting, CNC machining, 3D printing, and other standard machine shop equipment
  • Demonstrated technical communication skills for a variety of audiences including other mechanical engineers, engineers and scientists of other disciplines, technicians, project managers, vendors, and executives

Employment may be conditioned upon the ability to obtain export authorization. Estimated salary range: $120,000-180,000 annually. Candidates may be considered for other positions at Zap Energy and actual salary will be based on relevant education, experience, and other qualifications. Range is published in accordance with Washington Equal Pay and Opportunity Act.
