Description

The Senior Mechanical Designer designs and coordinates the mechanical design activities related to specific module or subsystem of a multidisciplinary system, according to customer specification requirements, schedule and costs Duties and Responsibilities 1. Power Architecture & Cabinet Design High-Power Systems: Define and design system power distribution architectures capable of managing total consumption exceeding 1,000 Amps per phase. Enclosure Engineering: Design electrical and control cabinets optimized for thermal management and footprint to house heaters, multi-axis servo motion, robotics, and asynchronous motors. Component Specification: Select and size breakers, contactors, and protection devices for high-demand industrial environments. 2. Interconnects & Signal Integrity Cable Design: Define power and control cabling requirements, specifically for dynamic robotic applications and high-flex environments. EMC Mitigation: Implement design strategies for noisy EMC environments to protect sensitive digital and analog control signals from interference. 3. Basic PLC Programming & System Integration Functional Integration: Develop and deploy basic PLC logic to perform "Initial Power-On" tests and verify the functional integrity of the hardware. Hardware Handshake: Program basic I/O logic, safety interlocks, and communication handshakes to prepare the system for high-level software development. Logic Debugging: Use PLC diagnostic tools to troubleshoot field-level hardware issues, ensuring all sensors, actuators, and drives respond correctly to commands. 4. Engineering Documentation & Prototyping Schematics: Develop comprehensive wiring diagrams and interconnection block diagrams (e.g., using industrial CAD tools). Prototyping: Lead the hands-on building and integration of prototypes, performing "Power On" checks and resolving complex electrical hardware issues. 5. Regulatory & Safety Compliance Standards Mastery: Ensure all designs comply with CE (European) and UL 508A (North American) electrical safety regulations. Safety Analysis: Conduct Safety Risk Failure Analysis (FMEA) to define and implement necessary SIL (Safety Integrity Level) ratings for personnel protection. Requirements Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, control systems engineering, or mechatronics. Experience 7+ years.

Responsibilities

This role involves defining and designing high-power distribution architectures and specialized electrical/control cabinets for complex systems housing motion control components. Responsibilities also include developing basic PLC logic for functional testing and debugging hardware issues in the field.
