Mechanical and Product Documentation Engineer (Aluminum Components)

At KEENFINITY , we are passionate about delivering innovative electronics manufacturing solutions (EMS) for customers across industries such as industrial technology, medical devices, mobility, building solutions, and communication systems. With approximately 1,400 employees across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, we support the entire product lifecycle, from engineering and prototyping to manufacturing, testing, and aftermarket services. We deliver reliable, high-quality solutions that support technologies people rely on every day.

Role Mission.

As a Mechanical & Product Documentation Engineer , you will contribute to the design, development, industrialization, and lifecycle management of mechanical components and products, with a strong focus on aluminum components and manufacturing processes such as die casting and ejection molding. You will work closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Purchasing, and other cross-functional teams to ensure that mechanical designs are functional, manufacturable, cost-effective, and properly documented throughout the product lifecycle.

Main Activities.

• Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies , including aluminum parts, considering functionality, manufacturability, industrialization, quality, and cost-effectiveness.
• Create and maintain 3D models, drawings, and technical documentation using CAD software.
• Apply knowledge of aluminum part design and manufacturing processes , particularly die casting and ejection molding, to develop robust and manufacturable product designs.
• Support the design and development of components considering Design of Manufacturability (DFM) and production requirements.
• Conduct and support mechanical design validation , including prototype evaluation, testing, and technical analysis.
• Coordinate the introduction of new part numbers , product structures, technical documentation, and Bills of Materials (BOMs) in SAP or equivalent ERP systems .
• Create, maintain, and update product BOMs and technical data throughout the product lifecycle.
• Execute product changes through established Engineering Change Request / Change Management processes , ensuring accurate and timely documentation.
• Provide product structures, technical data, and documentation required for cost calculations, sourcing, and industrialization activities.
• Support the organization with accurate product data throughout the product development and manufacturing lifecycle .
• Oversee the design, development, and manufacturing of prototypes , coordinating with internal and external stakeholders as needed.
• Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Purchasing, and other functions to resolve design and product-related issues.
• Ensure product documentation and engineering changes comply with applicable quality management and engineering processes.
• Identify opportunities to improve product designs, documentation, processes, and overall product lifecycle management.

What your Profile Should Look Like.

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• 3+ years of experience in mechanical product design, preferably in manufacturing, electronics, consumer, or industrial products.
• Hands-on experience designing aluminum components, including die-cast and ejection-molded aluminum parts.
• Proficiency in CAD software (CREO preferred) and knowledge of BOMs, engineering documentation, product structures, and engineering change management.
• Knowledge of aluminum manufacturing processes , Design for Manufacturability (DFM), and industrialization principles.
• Familiarity with PLM systems and engineering change processes in a global manufacturing environment.
• Experience in electronics manufacturing or EMS is a plus.
• Advanced English proficiency.
