Were seeking a Senior Mechanical / Automation Integration Engineer to design and lead development of advanced mechanical systems and automation equipment for next-generation agricultural machinery.
The ideal candidate brings strong hands-on design expertise a deep understanding of hydraulic pneumatic and electromechanical systems and a proven record integrating mechanical hardware with automation and control technologies. This is a high-impact role working cross-functionally with electrical software and automation engineers to bring complex machinery from concept to production.
**Key Responsibilities:**
- Lead mechanical system design for complex machinery and automation systems.
- Design and validate systems with hydraulic pneumatic and electromechanical actuation.
- Execute 3D CAD modeling and large assembly design (Onshape SolidWorks Inventor Fusion 360).
- Apply GD&T DFM/DFA and precision tolerancing for fabricated and machined components.
- Design high-load structural systems including lifting mechanisms conveyors linkages and chassis assemblies.
- Collaborate with vendors on manufacturability and fabrication optimization.
- Demonstrate hands-on knowledge of CNC machining welding and sheet metal fabrication.
- Integrate mechanical systems with sensors actuators and PLC control electronics (Allen-Bradley Siemens Beckhoff Arduino Portenta).
- Work with motion control servos encoders and industrial communication protocols (EtherCAT Modbus CAN Ethernet/IP).
- Integrate industrial cameras or 3D sensors (Keyence Cognex Basler ZED etc.) for perception automation.
- Coordinate with software engineers on embedded compute systems (NVIDIA Jetson Raspberry Pi) and data pipelines.
- Conduct structural and fluid simulations (FEA/CFD) and perform applied calculations for torque force and motion.
- Ensure designs comply with ASABE OSHA and CE standards for agricultural machinery.
- Lead integration projects across mechanical controls and vision systems maintaining documentation and communication excellence.
Requirements
- B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Mechatronics or Robotics Engineering.
- 510 years of experience in mechanical system design automation or robotics.
- Proven track record of delivering prototype-to-production machinery.
- Expert proficiency in 3D CAD (Onshape SolidWorks Inventor or Fusion 360).
- Deep understanding of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
- Experience with motion control systems PLC integration and industrial sensors.
- Strong analytical skills including FEA CFD and control theory fundamentals.
- Excellent communication and design review presentation skills.
- Demonstrated experience leading cross-functional teams.
- Familiarity with MATLAB/Simulink or Python for modeling (preferred).
- Knowledge of agricultural or mobile equipment design a plus.
Benefits
- Competitive salary range: $130000$180000 DOE
- Full benefits package (medical dental vision life insurance)
- 401(k) with company match
- Relocation assistance available for qualified candidates
- Opportunities to lead future automation and system integration programs
- Collaborative and innovative engineering environment
