Join the IPG Team!
Are you ready to elevate your career? At IPG, we are more than just a global leader in packaging and protective solutions-we are a community that values safety, people, passion, integrity, performance, and teamwork. From tapes and films to packaging and protective products, as well as engineered coated materials and advanced packaging machinery, we develop innovative solutions that protect the world. Now, we are expanding our global team and looking for talented individuals like you!
Position Description
Title: Senior Machine Design Engineer
Department: Engineering
Immediate Supervisor: Engineering Manager
Status: Exempt Salaried
Position Purpose: We are seeking an experienced Senior Machine Design Engineer to develop custom automated packaging machinery including cartoners, case packers, palletizers, and related end-of-line equipment. In this role, you will take customer projects from an approved machine concept through detailed design and release for manufacturing. Projects range from modifications of proven machine platforms to completely new machine concepts requiring original engineering solutions. The successful candidate will be a highly capable machine designer who can work independently, make sound engineering decisions, manage multiple priorities, and deliver complete machine designs on aggressive schedules.
Work Environment
Our projects typically range from $500,000 to $2.5 million, move quickly, and involve the design and delivery of highly customized automated machinery. Engineers in this role are entrusted with significant ownership and responsibility and expected to do what is necessary to meet commitments.. The successful candidate thrives in a fast-paced, project-driven environment, enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, and is comfortable adapting to evolving priorities and schedules. Our project timelines are measured in weeks, not months.
Key Responsibilities
Machine Design and Development
  • Develop detailed mechanical designs for custom packaging machinery and automation systems.
  • Create and validate machine concepts through timing studies, motion analysis, and engineering calculations.
  • Design complete machine assemblies and mechanisms using 3D CAD software.
  • Generate production-ready 2D fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, and bills of material.
  • Ensure designs are manufacturable, serviceable, reliable, and cost-effective.
  • Review and improve existing machine designs for performance, cost, and ease of manufacture.

Project Execution
  • Own engineering execution for assigned projects from concept through release.
  • Deliver complete drawing and documentation packages that support procurement, manufacturing, assembly, testing, installation, and service.
  • Manage engineering schedules and priorities to meet project milestones.
  • Communicate project status, risks, and deliverables with engineering leadership and cross-functional teams.

Cross-Functional Support
  • Work closely with Sales, Project Management, Manufacturing, Assembly, Controls Engineering, Purchasing, Service, and Field Installation teams.
  • Support machine build, testing, startup, and troubleshooting activities.
  • Provide technical support during manufacturing, commissioning, and customer installation as needed.
  • Participate in design reviews and continuous improvement initiatives.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.
  • 7+ years of machine design experience.
  • Advanced 3D CAD proficiency.
  • Experience creating production drawings, assembly drawings, and bills of material.
  • Strong understanding of machine design principles including:

    1. Mechanical Power Transmission
    2. Servo-Driven Motion Systems
    3. Pneumatics (can you tell me what a 5/3 valve is?)
    4. Design For Manufacturing
    5. Mechanical Timing
    6. Machine Kinematics

  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving ability.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Familiarity with machining, fabrication, welding, and assembly processes.
  • Experience supporting machine commissioning and field installations.
  • Experience designing packaging machinery such as Cartoners, Case packers, Palletizers, and Robotic packaging systems preferred.
  • Experience with high-speed automated manufacturing equipment preferred.

What Success Looks Like
The successful candidate will:
  • Take ownership of complex machine design projects.
  • Produce accurate and complete release packages with minimal supervision.
  • Make practical engineering decisions under schedule pressure.
  • Effectively coordinate with multiple departments to keep projects moving forward.
  • Balance technical excellence with project deadlines and business objectives.
  • Consistently deliver solutions that can be purchased, built, tested, installed, and supported successfully.
