Position Description:

Qualified candidates should be capable and have demonstrated skills in leading cross-functional teams in all aspects of engineering.   This unique role also encompasses individual design tasks as well as ultimate design responsibility for off-road mobile equipment development projects of all sizes, from single components to complete machine design. Our growing team of engineers, structural analysts, designers and drafters have a talent level unseen in the design of mobile equipment.  We are highly flexible, motivated, innovative, and can tackle any challenge in almost any discipline that our customers face.  We also specialize in rapid design projects to enable our customers’ success.

Major job duties:

• Responsible for the oversight and supervision of new and innovative mechanical designs of machinery and components from “clean sheet” concepts to complete prototype test and launch.
• Responsible to integrate multidisciplinary systems such as hydraulics, pneumatics, structural, engine packaging, electrical, or controls using a systems design approach to achieve end goal functionality
• Specify and define components and systems for mobile equipment. These could range from simple gears or brackets through entire powertrain assemblies, hydraulic systems design, controls system design, up to whole machine design
• Assist our clients with rapidly converging on solutions to focused areas of concern
• Lead and mentor engineers, designers, and drafters through the design and development of their projects

• Build group commitments to goals
• Strong commitment to on time or earlier delivery on customer timelines
• Ability to approach problems from multiple angles to understand and properly evaluate design trade-offs
• Ability to lead cross functional design reviews
• Strong process development skills and committed to using and improving existing processes
• Work from our main office in St. Paul, MN

Additional considerations:

• A working knowledge of multiple CAD systems is desirable
• Experience in designing cranes or other large, high capacity structures
• Practical, hands-on experiences within manufacturing or allied industries
• Experience with design of powertrain and engine installation systems
• Familiarity with designs of hydraulic or electrical systems
