Job description

POSITION SUMMARY

Rhino Tool House is seeking a Design Engineer to support the design and execution of custom material-handling and industrial systems. This position involves both structural and mechanical design, with a primary focus on overhead cranes and runway systems, as well as conveyors, custom manipulators, lifting devices, and other engineered equipment. The Design Engineer will develop practical, buildable designs from concept through fabrication and installation, working closely with sales, project management, fabrication, and field installation teams.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Engineering & Design

  • Design overhead crane systems, runway structures, monorails, jibs, and custom lifting equipment
  • Design mechanical systems including conveyors, manipulators, fixtures, and custom industrial machinery
  • Perform structural and mechanical calculations including load paths, component sizing, and system capacity
  • Select and size mechanical components such as bearings, gearboxes, motors, drives, shafts, and fasteners
  • Apply applicable codes and standards including CMAA, AISC, ASCE, OSHA, and manufacturer guidelines
  • Evaluate customer requirements, site conditions, and operational constraints to develop compliant designs

3D Modeling & Drafting

  • Create 3D models and detailed assemblies using SolidWorks (required)
  • Generate fabrication drawings, weldments, and bills of materials from SolidWorks models
  • Produce layout drawings, installation details, and interface drawings
  • Review drawings for accuracy, constructability, and completeness
  • Utilize AutoCAD as needed for layouts, legacy drawings, or coordination (preferred, not required)

Project & Shop Support

  • Support sales during quoting and concept development with layouts and technical input
  • Support project managers during execution, revisions, and coordination
  • Provide engineering support to fabrication and installation teams
  • Assist with troubleshooting and resolution of design-related field issues

Process Improvement

  • Assist with development and maintenance of standard details, templates, and calculation tools
  • Participate in internal design reviews and continuous improvement efforts
  • Support documentation of best practices and lessons learned

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or related engineering field
  • Proficiency in SolidWorks for 3D modeling and detailed design (required)
  • Mechanical engineering background with understanding of machinery, components, and assemblies
  • 2+ years of relevant engineering experience in industrial equipment, material handling, machinery, or structural systems
  • Strong understanding of loads, structural behavior, and mechanical fundamentals
  • Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, and equipment drawings
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple projects

WORK ENVIRONMENT & EXPECTATIONS:

  • Primarily office-based with periodic shop and jobsite visits
  • Hands-on, application-focused engineering environment
  • Emphasis on practical, buildable solutions rather than purely theoretical design
  • High degree of ownership and accountability for assigned designs

WHY JOIN RHINO TOOL HOUSE

  • Work on custom, one-off industrial systems rather than repetitive catalog products
  • Exposure to both structural and mechanical engineering challenges
  • Direct involvement from concept through fabrication and installation
  • Stable, growing organization with long-term career opportunities
  • Support for professional development and licensure
