JOB DESCRIPTION

Position Summary:

The Mechanical Design Engineer is responsible for the mechanical design development and validation of 1/105 HP electric motors including Induction Motors and EC Permanent Magnet Motors for applications such as pool pumps HVAC laundry food & beverage equipment and other commercial products. The role covers endtoend activities from 3D concept and detailed design through prototype build support testing and manufacturability improvementworking crossfunctionally with Electrical Test Lab Manufacturing Quality and Supply Chain to deliver robust costeffective and ontime solutions.

Major Responsibilities:

- 3D Mechanical Design & Documentation

• Create highquality 3D models and complete 2D drawings (with GD&T) for housings end bells shafts brackets cooling fans/shrouds terminals/boxes sealing features and mounting interfaces.
• Own engineering documentation: BOMs specifications tolerance stackups and design change records (ECN/ECR).

- Motor Platform Development (Induction & EC PM)

• Translate performance targets (efficiency torque speed NVH thermal) into mechanical requirements and design features.
• Collaborate with Electrical/Controls teams on stack length rotor design cooling strategy and packaging constraints.

- Analysis & Validation

• Perform tolerance and fit analyses basic structural/thermal assessments (and coordinate FEA where needed).
• Define mechanical test plans and support EVT/DVT prototype builds including issue replication and rootcause analysis.

- Prototype & Manufacturing Support

• Work closely with Sample Build Technicians and Test Lab on assembly sequences tooling/jigs and measurement points.
• Drive DFM/DFS with suppliers and Manufacturing to optimize materials processes (casting machining stamping molding) and cost.

- Quality Compliance & Continuous Improvement

• Ensure designs meet safety and regulatory/industry requirements (e.g. UL/IEC scope as applicable) and customer specifications.
• Lead problemsolving (8D/PDCA) implement corrective actions and contribute to cost/VAVE activities.

- Project Execution

• Plan deliverables and manage risk tracking design actions against milestones from concept prototype pilot build launch.
• Present design reviews and status updates to stakeholders and customers as required.

Required Education / Experience / Skills:

- Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related).

- 37 years of relevant experience in mechanical design of rotating machinery motors pumps or electromechanical products (open to strong junior profiles with demonstrated CAD excellence).

- High proficiency in 3D CAD (e.g. SolidWorks Creo NX) and strong 2D detailing with GD&T; capable of clear manufacturing drawings.

- Solid understanding of motor theory (fundamental to advanced): rotor/stator construction magnetic airgap implications on mechanics torque & losses impact on mechanical design thermal paths/cooling bearings & lubrication sealing/IP concepts and NVH basics.

- Handson experience supporting prototypes and lab testing (assembly constraints measurement methods failure analysis).

- Knowledge of materials & processes (Al/steel castings sheet metal/stamping machining plastics molding) and surface treatments/coatings.

- Experience with tolerance stackup DFM DFMEA and BoM control.

- Strong problemsolving datadriven mindset; organized detailoriented and able to manage multiple projects.

- Effective communication and teamwork with crossfunctional/global teams; comfortable presenting design reviews.

- MS Office (Excel Word PowerPoint); exposure to PDM/PLM and ERP is a plus.

- Nice to have (advantages): FEA basics (structural/thermal) CFD exposure for cooling/flow understanding of UL/IEC requirements customerfacing development experience.

Travel

Able to travel domestically/overseas as needed for supplier visits customer reviews or pilot builds.

Language: Good English communication skill(written & spoken)
