Engineering & Technical Design
  • Develop hydraulic system designs, schematics, and component specifications for new and existing applications.
  • Select hydraulic components (pumps, valves, motors, cylinders, manifolds, filtration, etc.) based on performance, cost, and reliability criteria.
  • Perform hydraulic calculations and simulations, including flow, pressure, cooling, horsepower, and efficiency analysis.
  • Support prototype builds and oversee system testing, troubleshooting, and validation.

Customer & Sales Support
  • Provide expert-level technical support to customers, distributors, and internal sales teams.
  • Interpret customer requirements and translate them into engineering solutions and proposals.
  • Conduct on-site visits for diagnostics, commissioning, and performance optimization.
  • Prepare technical documentation, including application notes, installation guides, and training materials.

Project & Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Manage projects from concept through implementation, ensuring timelines and deliverables are met.
  • Work with manufacturing and supply chain teams to ensure products are manufacturable, available, and cost-effective.
  • Assist in continuous improvement initiatives and product development projects.

Troubleshooting & Field Support
  • Diagnose hydraulic system issues, including pressure instability, heat generation, contamination, and performance loss.
  • Recommend corrective actions and provide root cause analysis.
  • Support warranty investigations and corrective engineering measures.

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Fluid Power Engineering, or related technical field (required).
  • 3-5+ years of experience in hydraulic system design, fluid power applications, or mobile/industrial equipment engineering.
  • Experience with hydraulic controls, electro-hydraulics, or proportional/servo valve technology preferred.
  • Familiarity with CAD software (SolidWorks, Inventor, AutoCAD) and hydraulic simulation tools.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
