Senior Mechanical Engineer – Consultant

An innovative leader in the field of solid-state cooling and heating technology is seeking a short-term W2 consultant to aid the design of mechanical components, assemblies, products, and solutions during a critical period of increased demand. The Senior Mechanical Engineer will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of the part/assembly, including preliminary design and proof of concept, final design, tooling, qualification, and production launch of assigned systems and components.

This is a 2-3 month W2 contract opportunity in Durham, NC. Target W2 pay range is $58 - $73/hr. with flexibility for the ideal senior level candidate. Candidates local to the Raleigh/Durham metro area are strongly preferred, as some time in-office will be needed to work hands-on with devices and prototypes. While this position is designed with a standard M-F 8-5 schedule in mind, part time arrangements may be available as well. No subcontracting or visa arrangements are available.

  • Develop and test prototypes using various tools and methods.
  • Assist in the writing of technical requirements specifications for systems and sub-systems.
  • Create assembly and process documentation including BOMs.
  • Assist in the development of test and quality plans for designed systems and components, ensuring system performance meets the requirements of the manufacturing and assembly processes.
  • Engage and collaborate with manufacturing teams on design and production-related matters.

Qualifications of the Senior Mechanical Engineer:

  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or related discipline.
  • Minimum of 7 years of relevant experience in mechanical engineering.
  • Proficiency with SolidWorks.
  • Experience with Product Data Management (PDM) tools; Arena preferred.
  • Familiarity with thermal and airflow modeling applications such as Ansys Icepak or Autodesk CFD.
  • Hands-on experience in the design, testing, and manufacturing of industrial and/or consumer products and systems, including electrical/electronic integration and thermal management.
  • Experience in the design of metal parts manufactured by extrusion, stamping, laser cutting, forming/bending, and die-casting.
  • Experience in the design of plastic parts and plastic material selection for injection molding, thermoforming, or other production manufacturing methods.
  • Experience in procurement of parts using rapid prototyping methods.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of mechanical design, safety, and regulatory compliance standards.
