Operations Automation Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Range of Responsibilities and authorities

The senior mechanical design engineer principle task is to design production tools, equipment parts for new project/s. Designs are done in Solid Works, resulting with 2d technical drawings which are sent to equipment makers (e.g. internal or external tool shops) for processing. The basic knowledge is required for metal processing technologies (milling, turning, grinding, EDM). In addition to that designer should be equipped with knowledge about dimensioning and tolerances.

The person is responsible for performing designs to ensure meeting project/process requirements. Participating/cooperating with other project members to secure successful outcome.
