As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, you are responsible for delivering mechanical design solutions throughout the entire product lifecycle, from concept development and detailed design to release, implementation, and continuous product support.
Mechanical Design & Development – Execute mechanical design activities based on project scope or backlog, translating requirements into practical engineering solutions. Develop concept, preliminary, and detailed designs using CAD tools (preferably Siemens NX), perform feasibility studies and trade-off analyses, and define mechanical components, tools, and systems while balancing functionality, manufacturability, safety, cost, and lead time.
Technical Documentation & Data Management – Create and maintain 3D models, engineering drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), and Technical Product Documentation (TPD) covering manufacturing, assembly, testing, transport, and maintenance. Manage engineering data and implement design changes using PLM/PDM systems such as Teamcenter and SAP, ensuring traceability and adherence to change management processes.
Engineering Analysis & Product Lifecycle Support – Perform tolerance analyses (GD&T), mechanical calculations, risk assessments, and design verification activities. Support products throughout the full lifecycle, from concept and realization to continuous improvement, ensuring technical quality and compliance with engineering standards.
Technical Leadership & Collaboration – Identify technical risks, dependencies, and interface issues, driving mitigation actions where required. Lead and contribute to design reviews, technical discussions, and alignment sessions, while collaborating closely with Lead Engineers, Project Managers, suppliers, and multidisciplinary teams.
Coaching & Continuous Improvement – Review engineering work, provide constructive feedback, and support less experienced engineers through technical guidance and mentorship. Facilitate knowledge sharing, contribute to improving engineering methods and team ways of working, and take ownership of specific technical topics or work packages.
