Mechanical Design Engineer plays a crucial role in the Aerospace and Defense industry, ensuring that all products and processes meet the highest quality standards. At Quest Global, we are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Mechanical Design Engineer with experience in geared transmission systems and components to join our team.
Key Responsibilities
1. Carry out detailed design activities to meet manufacturing requirements.
2. Perform hand calculations and preliminary sizing of components, including material selection, gear rating, shaft and bearing analysis, rotor dynamics, and other drive system elements such as structural components, couplings, lubrication systems, and relevant instrumentation and control systems.
3. Engage in CAD activities including conceptual design, 3D and 2D modeling. Create component and complex assembly drawings, check drawings and technical documentation, generate BOM and gear data, and process engineering change controls.
4. Generate manufacturing drawings with a clear understanding of Design for Manufacture principles.
5. Create deliverables such as Manuals, Installation, and Maintenance instructions.
6. Assess and resolve concessions/non-conformance reports, including hand calculations as needed, and coordinate with other specialists like stress analysis. Work closely with cross-functional teams to investigate non-conformance reports, develop corrective actions, and implement solutions to prevent recurrence.
Work Experience & Skills
* Strong core design skills using first principles methodologies.
* Familiarity with structural design practices and hand calculations to support design.
* Experience designing mechanical components, parts, assemblies, and subassemblies for heavy industry, power transmission systems, gears, and gearboxes.
* Knowledge of subsystems affecting mechanical design and layout.
* Proficient in 3D CAD software, preferably Solid Edge.
* Ability to interpret and produce high-quality engineering CAD models and manufacturing drawings, including GD&T.
Requirements
* Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related field.
* 5+ years in an engineering design role involving rotating machinery.
