  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to bring new products from concept to market

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field

  • Recent graduates are encouraged to apply

  • Associate Degree in Automation Technology with relevant experience will also be considered

  • Experience with SolidWorks or similar 3D CAD software

  • Strong problem-solving skills and a hands-on mindset

  • Interest in automation, machinery, product development, and manufacturing technologies

Why Consider This Opportunity?

  • Work on real products that move from concept to production

  • Hands-on exposure to design, prototyping, and testing

  • Competitive hourly compensation with full benefits

  • Opportunity to learn from experienced engineering professionals

  • Gain valuable automation and machinery design experience that is highly sought after across manufacturing industries
