The Role of Mechanical Engineer

As our new mechanical engineer, you will perform a variety of tasks, all of which are integral to the success of our company. Your primary goal will be to manage the design process of a wide variety of objects and materials, every single day. You’ll need to be thoroughly versed in SolidWorks and CAD 3D, and ideally have some familiarity with Geomagics, Polyworks, and Creaform 3D scanners.

You’ll also have a genuine desire to succeed, which is why you’ll excel here. You’re motivated and think outside-the-box to solve interesting problems. You’ll exercise your creativity here, every day, as you dig deep into problems and draw on your manufacturing and mechanical engineering expertise to solve them and provide solutions to our customers.

You’ll be committed to learning the full breadth of our equipment and specifications, and in turn, be able to work independently to execute on your projects. You’ll also need to have exceptional time management skills, and the ability to manage multiple competing priorities as you move from project to project on a daily basis.

Communication skills will also play a major role in your success, as you’ll frequently interact with our clients. You should be friendly and positive, and able to communicate complex ideas and designs in a manner that is easily understood by a wide range of engineers and non-engineers alike. This is an incredible opportunity to be far more than just a CAD data input role – you’ll have real opportunity for fascinating, hands-on design work, and the ability to grow with the company.
