Description

Trust Automation Trust Automation has over 30 years of experience in custom motors, linear drives, digital drives, and systems which meet the unique needs of its customers. Its product line includes motors, linear drives, digital drives, custom assemblies, and products to fit unique applications and ground-up system design and manufacturing solutions. We design, build and support control and power management systems for the most demanding defense, semiconductor, industrial automation, and medical applications. Trust Automation is an equal opportunity employer and committed to attracting, hiring, developing, and retaining a skilled, productive, and diverse workforce, personnel with competencies and experience related to the regional and State population. Every employee has an “at-will” relationship with Trust Automation. This means that employment with Trust Automation is at the mutual consent of the employer and the employee and is subject to termination by either party at will, with or without cause or advance notice. Job Summary The Mechanical Engineer role will directly contribute to Trust Automation's success by supporting mechanical system design and analysis efforts for precision motion control, power conversion, and intelligence technology products. This role uses conceptual and detailed mechanical design approaches coupled with simulation and analysis to verify designs before hardware is produced. This position supports the assembly and testing of initial engineering build cycles to efficiently transition to internal manufacturing. Duties and Responsibilities To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily.
