Job Title: Machine Design Engineer
Location: Itasca, IL (Onsite)
Rate: Up to $45/hr
Position Type: Contract to Hire
About the Role:
We are seeking an experienced Machine Design Engineer to join our team for an open-ended contract. This role focuses on designing industrial machinery and heavy equipment—not automation systems. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in machinery design, excellent SolidWorks skills, and the ability to deliver high-quality solutions for complex equipment.
Responsibilities:
  • Design and develop industrial machinery and heavy equipment using SolidWorks.
  • Create detailed 3D models, assemblies, and 2D drawings for fabrication.
  • Collaborate with engineers and production teams to ensure designs meet functional and manufacturability requirements.
  • Review and improve existing machinery designs.
  • Support project timelines in a company with a large backlog of work.
Qualifications:
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in industrial machinery or heavy equipment design.
  • Proficiency in SolidWorks (modeling, assemblies, and drawing creation).
  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field is a plus, but not required.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work onsite in Itasca, IL.
Why Join:
  • Long-standing client with a reputation for quality and reliability.
  • Consistent workflow due to large backlog of projects.
  • Competitive pay of up to $45/hr.
  • Opportunity to work on a variety of machinery design projects.
