ENGINEER, MECHANICAL DESIGN

Key Accountability Areas

Project Launch and Initial Preparation

• Attend project launch meetings and review mechanical scope, requirements, and constraints
• Prepare job files in accordance with departmental procedures
• Review contractual, technical, and specification documents related to mechanical design

Mechanical Design and Development

• Develop mechanical designs including enclosures, sheet metal parts, assemblies, and supporting structures
• Perform design calculations related to strength, material selection, and thermal considerations where applicable
• Ensure designs meet project specifications, standards, and manufacturing requirements

CAD Modelling and Drawing Preparation

• Create 2D drawings and 3D models using approved design software
• Prepare fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, and detailed part drawings
• Apply standard drawing practices including dimensions, tolerances, and material specifications

Drawing Review and Verification

• Review and verify mechanical drawings to ensure accuracy, completeness, and manufacturability
• Ensure all design requirements and constraints are reflected in final drawings
• Prepare and verify Bills of Materials (BOMs) aligned with design outputs and project requirements

Production Coordination

• Coordinate with production teams to ensure designs are feasible for fabrication and assembly
• Support production planning by releasing drawings and material requirements in line with schedules
• Ensure alignment between BOMs, drawings, and production requirements

Technical Support

• Provide technical support during fabrication, assembly, and testing stages
• Support resolution of design-related issues by reviewing and updating designs where required
• Coordinate with quality teams to ensure compliance with design specifications
