Job Description
Lead the end-to-end design and development of complex mechanical components and assemblies, from concept to series production. Apply critical and design thinking to generate, evaluate, and optimize robust solutions with a holistic system perspective. Drive 3D modeling, tolerance stack-ups, and advanced calculations (stress, thermal, durability), ensuring manufacturability, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with standards. Own the lifecycle management of designs—from requirements and prototyping to validation, production, and continuous improvement. Manage supplier technical alignment—from feasibility studies to design validation—balancing performance, cost, and quality. Apply and champion quality and risk management tools (DFMEA, DRBFM, 8D, FTA) to prevent issues and ensure design robustness. Prepare and maintain technical documentation, including specifications, special characteristics, and justification reports. Provide design leadership—guiding stakeholders, inspiring colleagues, and enabling team members to contribute effectively to collective success. Contribute to design discussions with system-level insights and a forward-looking, innovation-driven mindset. Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (or a related field). 5+ years of proven experience in the design and development of parts and assemblies for series production (preferably in HVAC). Expertise in modern manufacturing methods (plastics, die casting, machining, and sealing technologies). Strong command of GD&T, material selection, tolerance analysis, and lifecycle management practices. Advanced skills in CAD/PLM systems (UG NX, Teamcenter, SAP) and familiarity with CAE tools (FEA, CFD). Demonstrated ability to apply critical thinking, design thinking, and holistic problem-solving to complex engineering projects. Experience in supplier management
