We produce innovative and mission-critical flow creation and life science technologies – from compressors to precision handling of liquids, gasses, and powers – to increase industrial productivity, efficiency, and sustainability. Supported by over 80+ brands, our products are used in various end-markets including life sciences, food and beverage, clean energy, industrial manufacturing, infrastructure, and more. Across the globe, we’re driving growth with an entrepreneurial spirit and ownership mindset. Learn more at irco.com and join us to own your future.

Step into a Mechanical Engineer, Design Development role with Ingersoll Rand’s Bentleyville, Pennsylvania site—a key North American engineering and packaging hub for Nash and MD Kinney liquid-ring vacuum pumps and compressors. The team supports a broad portfolio of rotating-equipment designs, global manufacturing, and U.S. service operations, with responsibility spanning product engineering, design support, packaging, and lifecycle support.

In this role, you’ll take meaningful ownership of complex rotating equipment within two established, market-leading product brands. You will support the design, development, maintenance, and continuous improvement of commercial liquid-ring vacuum pumps and compressors, including engineering changes, product data and documentation, manufacturing support, and technical collaboration with Quality, Operations, Service, Sales, and Product Management. You’ll contribute to both current product support and new product development, helping improve performance, reduce cost without compromising reliability, expand CFD capability, and advance proven technology into its next generation. Whether you’re early in your engineering career and ready for greater development ownership, or you’ve taken a broader path into mechanical/product design, this role offers room to grow your technical depth and impact.

What makes you an instant-yes candidate? You take ownership, work independently, stay organized, communicate effectively across teams, and keep projects moving with the right priorities and attention to detail. Technically, you bring a strong mechanical foundation and an interest in understanding the mechanics, assembly, and operation of rotating equipment. You can perform engineering calculations and analysis and are proficient in 3D CAD. Experience with FEA/CFD, vibration, fluid dynamics, troubleshooting, ERP/BOM ownership, or Ansys adds value. Direct Nash or MD Kinney experience is not required—a strong mechanical design and problem-solving foundation, combined with the ability to quickly develop deeper analytical skills, can be equally valuable.

Bring your mechanical design development expertise, curiosity, and ownership mindset—and help take proven Nash and MD Kinney technology into its next generation.

• Support commercial liquid-ring vacuum pump and compressor product lines through product engineering, design improvements, performance evaluation, manufacturing support, and documentation.
• Develop and maintain strong product knowledge across assigned configurations, components, applications, engineering data, and legacy/current platforms.
• Execute product design and development activities from concept and design review through prototype support, validation, implementation, and release.
• Improve product designs to enhance performance, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost effectiveness.
• Create and maintain 3D CAD models, drawings, specifications, design layouts, bills of material, and supporting engineering records.
• Prepare and implement ECRs, ECNs, drawing revisions, BOM updates, and product data changes, maintaining accurate engineering change histories.
• Analyze test results, product performance, manufacturing feedback, field service data, and quality concerns to drive troubleshooting, corrective actions, and design improvements.
• Partner with Manufacturing, Quality, Operations, Sourcing, Customer Service, Field Service, Sales, and Product Management, while managing multiple priorities and supporting authorized government, defense, or export-controlled projects as assigned.

• Analytical Problem Solving – Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to evaluate technical issues, interpret data, and apply sound engineering judgment.
• Mechanical Engineering Judgment – Applies sound mechanical engineering principles to balance performance, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost.
• Data-Driven Decision Making – Uses engineering analysis, testing, manufacturing feedback, and field performance data to guide decisions and improvements.
• Attention to Detail – Maintains accuracy across engineering documentation, bills of material, technical records, and change management.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration – Communicates effectively and works collaboratively with engineering, manufacturing, quality, service, sourcing, and other stakeholders.

• Experience with vacuum pumps, compressors, liquid ring equipment, or other rotating fluid machinery.
• Experience applying mechanical products to customer operating conditions, performance requirements, or industrial process applications.
• Experience with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, including ANSYS and/or Simerics MP+.
• Experience with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools; Windchill preferred.
• Strong knowledge of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and compressible flow principles.
• Experience with vibration analysis and/or acoustic analysis.

• On-site position based in Bentleyville, PA.
• Must hold US Citizenship due to assigned government engineering activies
• Occasional travel may be required to support customers, suppliers, manufacturing facilities, or project activities.
• Support for global product initiatives may be required as business needs dictate.
