POSITION SUMMARY

Are you ready to take your mechanical engineering career to the next level? This is a rare opportunity to work on the systems behind world-class rides and attractions —the kind of projects that inspire awe, spark imagination, and push the limits of engineering innovation.
As a Senior Mechanical Engineer , you won’t just be maintaining systems—you’ll design them from a blank sheet of paper . From complex motion systems to safety-critical designs, you’ll engineer the rides and experiences that bring imagination to life.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related discipline with directly applicable experience)
• 10+ years of mechanical engineering experience
• 3+ years of mechanical design experience from scratch or major redesign projects
• Proficiency in 3D modeling (SolidWorks preferred)
• Strong knowledge of GD&T, stress/fatigue/reliability calculations, and tolerance studies
• Ability to design/troubleshoot pneumatic and hydraulic systems
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to work in multi-disciplinary teams

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience in ASTM standards, attractions industry, and safety engineering
• Knowledge of ride system design for guest-facing attractions
• Experience with redundant safety systems and risk assessment documentation
• Familiarity with large-scale or high-duty cycle mechanical systems

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Engineer innovative ride and motion systems from concept to completion
• Create and refine 3D models, technical drawings, and design documentation
• Perform advanced system analysis, stress/fatigue calculations, and safety evaluations
• Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to integrate complex mechanical systems
• Oversee vendor deliverables to ensure functionality, safety, and compliance
• Develop redundant and fail-safe design strategies for maximum reliability
• Support installation and commissioning, including occasional off-shift site work
• Ensure all designs meet or exceed client, industry, and regulatory standards

WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE STAND OUT

• Dream Projects: Work on rides, attractions, and motion systems that millions of people experience every year.
• Blank Slate Design: Bring ideas to life starting from concept sketches, not just modifications.
• Career Growth: Lead high-impact projects and advance within a growing sector of engineering.
• Great Benefits: Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package.
• Stability: Join a proven firm with decades of engineering excellence and consistent industry demand.
• Supportive Culture: Be part of a team that values creativity, technical precision, and collaboration.
