The ideal candidate will have a BS-level mechanical or industrial engineering background, strong SolidWorks capability, and practical experience designing equipment, fixtures, layouts, and mechanical systems used in process engineering environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Mechanical Process Design: Design mechanical systems and equipment to support chemical and electrochemical process development.
- Engineering Support: Work with chemical engineers to translate process requirements into mechanical designs for reactors, separators, tanks, pumps, transfer lines, filtration systems, solids handling, and sample-collection points.
- Scale-Up Support: Assist in the design and modification of equipment for bench-scale, semicontinuous, and future scale-up process operation.
- CAD and Drawings: Develop SolidWorks models, assemblies, drawings, and bills of materials for process equipment, fixtures, and supporting hardware.
- Mechanical Analysis: Use appropriate mechanical analysis tools to assess structural, thermal, fluid-handling, or manufacturability considerations.
- Fabrication Coordination: Work with internal and external fabrication resources to support prototype construction, installation, troubleshooting, and design revisions.
- System Integration: Support integration of balance-of-plant components including pumps, balance tanks, tubing or piping, containment, access panels, supports, and equipment layouts.
- Documentation: Maintain design records, drawing packages, revision histories, test notes, and engineering documentation.
- Education: BS in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
- Technical Skills: Proficiency with SolidWorks and mechanical drawing development.
- Experience: Experience with mechanical design, process equipment, industrial systems, or manufacturing support.
- Practical Design Ability: Ability to design parts and assemblies that can be fabricated, assembled, maintained, and modified in a working engineering environment.
- Collaboration: Ability to work closely with chemical engineers, chemists, technicians, machinists, and controls personnel.
- Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Experience with chemical process equipment, battery recycling, critical materials processing, or laboratory/pilot-scale systems.
- Experience with pumps, tanks, tubing, piping, filtration, solids handling, or industrial process layouts.
- Experience in a hands-on manufacturing, prototype, machine shop, or R&D environment.
- Familiarity with safety considerations for chemical processing equipment.
- Opportunity to design real equipment for a growing critical-materials recovery program.
- Hands-on role connecting mechanical engineering, process engineering, and manufacturing.
- Competitive compensation and benefits.
- Opportunity to work in a practical engineering environment with direct impact on system buildout and scale-up.
