Description

Company Description The company designs, engineers, and manufactures complex modular systems that support energy storage, power generation, data center infrastructure, defense, and industrial markets. It delivers fully integrated, engineered-to-order solutions, including Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), generator-backed power systems, and modular data centers manufactured in-house. Job Description Role Summary: The Senior Mechanical Engineer is responsible for leading mechanical design execution for complex systems and customer solutions, ensuring designs meet performance, safety, compliance, manufacturability, and serviceability requirements. This role owns significant subsystems end-to-end, drives technical decisions, and resolves high-impact technical issues across engineering, manufacturing, deployment, and sustaining operations. The Senior Mechanical Engineer provides technical leadership through design reviews, mentoring, and standardization efforts, and improving product robustness.
