• Provide regular updates on project status and progress.
• Evaluate materials, tolerances, and manufacturability to ensure design quality and efficiency.
• Collaborate with vendors and suppliers to confirm design feasibility and optimize production.
• Investigate design issues using root cause analysis and implement corrective actions.
• Support the sales team by supplying technical data, system drawings, and design input when required.
• Provide technical support to customers via phone, email, or video conferencing.
• Occasional travel may be required for system testing, design validation, or on-site customer support.

• Associate’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• 3–5 years of experience in mechanical design, preferably in automated or industrial equipment.
• Strong proficiency with 3D CAD software (Autodesk Inventor preferred; training available for the right candidate).
• Highly skilled in Microsoft Excel.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to listen actively, retain technical information, and clarify complex issues.
• Organized, adaptable, and able to work in a fast-paced environment.
