Mechanical Systems Design Engineer – Low Voltage Switchgear

Location: Marietta, OH
Employment Type: Direct Hire
Compensation: Starting at $90,000+ annually (based on experience and technical background)

We are seeking an experienced Mechanical Systems Design Engineer to support the development of low-voltage power distribution equipment, including switchgear assemblies designed to UL 891 standards. This role focuses on producing detailed, manufacturable mechanical designs while coordinating closely with electrical engineering and production teams.

This is a hands-on engineering position ideal for candidates with prior switchgear design experience, strong CAD skills, and a solid understanding of fabrication and assembly processes.

• Develop mechanical layouts and detailed designs for low-voltage switchgear assemblies in accordance with UL 891 requirements
• Design enclosure systems, structural supports, breaker mounting arrangements, and cable management solutions
• Generate fabrication packages including general arrangement drawings, sheet metal details, weldments, and bills of materials
• Ensure designs are accurate, manufacturable, and aligned with project specifications

• Collaborate with electrical engineering teams to integrate mechanical and electrical system requirements
• Support coordination of one-line diagrams, bus configurations, equipment spacing, and cable routing considerations
• Participate in design reviews to address accessibility, interference, thermal management, and maintainability concerns
• Verify compliance with applicable standards, manufacturing capabilities, and internal engineering practices

• Apply design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-assembly (DFA) principles during product development
• Provide engineering support during fabrication, assembly, testing, and inspection activities
• Assist with troubleshooting production issues and implementing process improvements
• Contribute to value engineering and cost-reduction initiatives

• Manage engineering deliverables within project schedules and production timelines
• Maintain organized engineering documentation, drawing revisions, and release records
• Support occasional travel for project coordination, supplier interaction, or production support as needed
