Job Description

Mechanical Engineer

Locations: On-Site in Cleveland, OH & Charleston, SC

Our client is expanding two high-growth product lines that protect critical environments for life-science, healthcare, and advanced-manufacturing customers. They need a hands-on Mechanical Engineer who loves seeing designs move from 3-D model to factory floor to finished installation. If you thrive on variety - custom equipment one week, supplier negotiations the next, and a quick site visit to verify fit-up - you’ll feel right at home.

What You’ll Do

  • Own mechanical design of custom modular enclosures, precision access doors, and related sub-systems in SolidWorks and Revit, delivering complete models, drawings, and BOMs.
  • Produce manufacturable drawings, costed BOMs, and clear assembly instructions that hit quality and lead-time targets.
  • Run FEA-based structural, vibration, and thermal studies to validate safety and performance.
  • Source & track specialty hardware - hinges, seals, actuators, filtration interfaces - working closely with purchasing and key vendors.
  • Coordinate with architecture, electrical, and controls teams plus outside design firms to integrate your work into overall facility layouts.
  • Lead design-for-manufacture and continuous-improvement projects that boost throughput, reliability, and margins.
  • Provide on-site support during fabrication, installation, and commissioning at both Midwest and Southeast facilities (≈10-15 % travel).
  • Maintain CAD libraries, engineering change documentation, and best-practice design standards in the PLM system.

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering (or similar).
  • 5 + years designing custom equipment, enclosures, or capital projects.
  • Expert with SolidWorks (or comparable 3-D CAD) and comfortable integrating models into Autodesk Revit/AutoCAD plant layouts.
  • Working knowledge of machining, sheet-metal, welding, and general fabrication processes.
  • Familiarity with FEA tools; able to interpret standards, specs, and codes.
  • Strong communication skills for vendor, cross-discipline, and client coordination.
  • Organized, self-directed, and motivated by continuous improvement.

Bonus Points

  • PLM or PDM experience.
  • Familiarity with environments requiring precise controls, such as radiation containment or contamination-free production settings.
  • Experience guiding junior engineers or external design partners.

Benefits Snapshot

  • Competitive base salary, discretionary bonus, and full health benefits.
  • Relocation assistance for the right candidate.
  • Career path toward senior engineering or project-management leadership.
  • Work with a nimble team that values innovation, craftsmanship, and getting things done.
