The posting

We are hiring a Senior Product Design Engineer for an established industrial manufacturing operation in the Birmingham area. This is a hands-on mechanical design role focused on developing complex, heavy-duty equipment and fabricated products used in demanding industrial environments.

The Senior Product Design Engineer will own projects from initial concept and customer requirements through detailed design, manufacturing drawings, engineering changes, and production release. This is an experienced-level position for an engineer who understands not only how to design a product, but also how it will be fabricated, welded, machined, assembled, and used in the field.

Responsibilities

  • Lead mechanical design projects from initial concept through production release.
  • Develop 3D models, assemblies, and detailed manufacturing drawings.
  • Convert application requirements and technical specifications into practical, manufacturable designs.
  • Design complex mechanical components, assemblies, and fabricated products for industrial applications.
  • Apply GD&T, tolerance analysis, material selection, and sound mechanical design principles.
  • Work closely with manufacturing teams to ensure designs can be produced efficiently and consistently.
  • Support design modifications, engineering changes, and continuous product improvements.
  • Troubleshoot design and manufacturing issues and develop practical engineering solutions.
  • Interface with customers and internal teams to understand technical requirements and application challenges.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and designers.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of mechanical design or product engineering experience within a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong experience designing mechanical equipment, machinery, or manufactured products.
  • Proficiency with 3D CAD and 2D drafting software; Autodesk Inventor and AutoCAD experience is preferred.
  • Strong understanding of manufacturing and fabrication processes.
  • Working knowledge of GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, engineering drawings, and design for manufacturability.
  • Experience taking designs from concept through manufacturing/production.
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related technical discipline preferred; equivalent technical education and relevant experience will also be considered.
  • Strong problem-solving and communication skills.
  • Ability to work directly with manufacturing, customers, and other engineering disciplines.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
