SPECIALIST RECRUITERS - ENGINEERING, MANAGEMENT, SALES & ACCOUNTING.
- Melbourne - West Location
- Two Senior Mechanical Design Engineer Positions
- Heavy Industrial Manufacturing & Fabricated Equipment
- Expert SolidWorks 3D Modelling & Complex Assemblies
- Complete Project Engineering - Concept to Manufacture
- Heavy Vehicles, Industrial Machinery & Specialised Equipment
- Attractive Remuneration - Negotiable Based on Experience
An excellent opportunity is available for two experienced Senior Mechanical Design Engineers to join a successful Australian manufacturer specialising in large, complex, purpose-built mechanical equipment.
We are particularly interested in engineers with a strong background in heavy industrial manufacturing, heavy vehicles, specialised mobile equipment, mining equipment, industrial machinery or large fabricated mechanical assemblies.
We are looking for Design Engineers who can hands-on design and manufacture large, complex equipment that is fabricated, assembled and manufactured, not simply engineers who produce CAD drawings.
Expertise in SolidWorks PDM and 3D modelling, plus a sound understanding of heavy engineering and manufacturing processes, are essential.
Also experience with pressure vessels, fuel systems, vacuum systems, fluid handling, hydraulic and pneumatic equipment will be highly regarded.
Successful applicants will take ownership of engineering projects from initial concept and detailed mechanical design through manufacturing, assembly, and final production.
The Position:
- Design complex, purpose-built mechanical equipment for heavy industrial applications.
- Develop advanced SolidWorks 3D models, large assemblies and detailed manufacturing drawings.
- Take responsibility for complete engineering design projects from concept through to manufacture.
- Design heavy fabricated structures, mechanical assemblies, frames, supports and integrated equipment.
- Produce detailed SolidWorks 2D drawings incorporating GD&T.
- Utilise SolidWorks PDM for design documentation and revision control.
- Undertake engineering calculations, structural assessments and design reviews.
- Consider structural integrity, load distribution, weight optimisation and component integration.
- Work with hydraulic, pneumatic, pumping, piping and associated mechanical systems.
- Prepare bills of materials, technical specifications and engineering documentation.
- Ensure designs comply with applicable Australian Standards and regulatory requirements.
- Work closely with workshop, fabrication, welding and production teams to resolve manufacturing challenges.
- Provide practical engineering support throughout fabrication, assembly and final production.
To Be Successful:
- Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering or equivalent recognised engineering qualification.
- Expert-level SolidWorks 3D modelling and complex assembly design - essential.
- Strong experience in heavy industrial manufacturing, heavy fabricated equipment or specialised machinery.
- Proven ability to design complete mechanical equipment, not simply individual components or CAD drawings.
- Advanced SolidWorks 2D drafting, GD&T and SolidWorks PDM experience.
- Sound mechanical, structural and integration engineering knowledge.
- Practical understanding of welding, fabrication, machining, assembly and manufacturing processes.
- Experience taking engineering designs from initial concept through to finished manufactured equipment.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work closely with manufacturing personnel.
Highly Regarded Industry Experience:
- Heavy vehicle, truck body, trailer or specialised mobile equipment manufacturing.
- Mining, earthmoving, construction or heavy industrial machinery.
- Large welded steel and aluminium structures and fabricated mechanical assemblies.
- Pressure vessels, tanks and associated mechanical equipment.
- Fuel systems, vacuum systems, pumping and industrial piping.
- Engineering design involving weight optimisation and load distribution.
- FEA, structural analysis and design verification.
- Design for Manufacture (DFM) and Design for Service (DFS).
The Opportunity:
This is an excellent opportunity to join an established Australian heavy engineering and manufacturing company where you will work on challenging, technically interesting projects involving substantial mechanical equipment and complex engineering design.
You will have the opportunity to take responsibility for complete projects, working closely with manufacturing teams to see your designs become finished equipment.
An attractive remuneration package is available and negotiable based on experience and technical capabilities.
If you are an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer with advanced SolidWorks skills and a strong understanding of heavy industrial manufacturing, we would like to hear from you.
