Job description

Responsibilities:

  • Utilize CAD software (3D EXPERIENCE (3DX), CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, Creo) to create detailed mechanical designs

  • Lead the mechanical architecture and design of medium-voltage power electronics converter assemblies and complex electro-mechanical parts including plastics, sheet metal, insulators, magnetic components, and high-voltage connectors

  • Perform structural FEA, thermal CFD, vibration, and fatigue assessments

  • Solve packaging challenges involving electrical isolation, sealing, thermal dissipation, EMI/EMC shielding, and mechanical shock/vibration

  • Define and execute structural, thermal, and environmental validation test plans

  • Create 2D drawings with GD&T, engineering documentation, tolerance stacks, BOMs, and release packages through PLM systems

  • Collaborate with electrical, thermal, Firmware and controls, manufacturing, test, industrial design, and suppliers to optimize DFM, DFA, and tooling strategies for high-volume production

  • Lead prototype development, fabrication, assembly, and mechanical testing of new designs

  • Support root-cause analysis of pilot or production issues and lead iterative improvements

  • Drive trade studies on design architecture, materials, and manufacturing processes

  • Guide selection for structural, thermal, and electrical compatibility in high-voltage environments

  • Contribute to cooling system layouts including cold plates, thermal interfaces, and airflow paths

  • Develop assembly procedures and manufacturing instructions to support scalable production

  • Participate in mechanical FMEA and DVP&R activities

  • Work with quality and reliability teams to meet performance, lifecycle, and safety targets

  • Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across product programs

  • Contribute to technology development for future-generation SST products and enclosures

 Qualifications:

  • 8+ years of experience in mechanical design for power electronics, automotive, industrial, or energy products
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field

  • Expertise in CAD modeling using 3DEXPERIENCE (CATIA V6/V5), SolidWorks, NX, or Creo

  • Deep understanding of statics, dynamics, heat transfer, and materials

  • Proficiency in GD&T, tolerance analysis, and DFM/DFA principles

  • Experience designing enclosures for IP-rated or outdoor-rated power equipment

  • Experience with injection molding, die casting, extrusion, and sheet metal forming

  • Working knowledge of metals (aluminum, steel), plastics, ceramics, gaskets, and potting compounds

  • Hands-on experience taking designs from prototype through production deployment

  • Familiarity with PLM systems (3DEXPERIENCE, Windchill, etc.) and engineering change workflows

  • Comfortable with root-cause analysis, failure mode resolution, and mechanical reliability testing

  • Strong communication skills and ability to lead cross-functional design reviews and technical deep-dives

  • Prior experience collaborating with suppliers on tooling development, DFM feedback, and tolerance negotiations

  • Familiarity with PCBAs, connectors, and mechanical integration of high-density electronic assemblies

  • Experience with design and test documentation for regulatory standards (UL, IEC, NEC)

  • Ability to drive concurrent engineering initiatives across product timelines

  • Passion for product innovation, sustainability, and electrification

  • Willingness and ability to travel 15%-20%, including internationally

Bonus Qualifications: 

  • Experience working in Agile development environments using Scrum methodologies and tools like Jira

  • Strong background in structural, thermal, and vibration analysis using Ansys Mechanical, Fluent, and Maxwell

  • Familiarity with electronics packaging and PCB interface considerations

  • Experience with medium- to high-voltage systems and insulation coordination (creepage, clearance, potting, sealing)

Please note: This role requires working on-site 5 days a week. We do not offer hybrid or remote options.
