Job Summary

Design. Develop. Deliver.

We are looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer who takes automation systems from concept to working solution.

You will own mechanical architecture, 3D modelling, layouts and validation while working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver precise, reliable and manufacturable designs.

At Armstrong Dematic, your designs move from the drawing board to the warehouse floor.

Responsibilities Mechanical Design Benchmarking Compliance

• Conduct thorough benchmarking of mechanical systems, components, and architectures in alignment with compliance requirements and industry standards.
• Ensure all designs adhere to applicable safety, quality, and regulatory standards (e.g., ISO, CE, UL).

System Architecture Planning

• Develop mechanical architecture considering scalability, modularity, and manufacturability.
• Prepare schematic drafts and layouts based on functional and performance requirements.
• Define materials, makes, and structural designs aligned with cost and performance objectives.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (CFT) for the integration of hardware systems.

Conceptualization Innovation

• Apply design thinking methodologies to create innovative solutions during the concept development phase.
• Translate user and stakeholder inputs into functional design concepts.
• Evaluate multiple design approaches and perform trade-off analysis.

Component Supplier Evaluation

• Research and evaluate standard mechanical components from multiple suppliers.
• Perform cost, quality, and reliability analysis of supplier offerings.
• Work closely with procurement and supplier quality teams for sourcing and validation.

3D Modelling Using the 6D Principle
