Mechapixel

Mechanical Engineer

• Support the mechanical design process from concept through prototyping and testing
• Create 3D CAD models and detailed drawings using tools like SolidWorks
• Assist in simulation and basic analysis (stress, thermal, motion) with guidance from senior engineers
• Help build and test prototypes, analyze results, and contribute to design iterations
• Participate in brainstorming sessions, design reviews, and documentation of design processes

Junior Mechanical Engineer

• Engineering calculations: Prepare concise calc packs for calculations across any engineering domain. For example, first‑principles calculations (thermal/flow/strength, etc.)
• Simulation & validation: Run SolidWorks Simulation (or ANSYS) for static/thermal/modal analyses; execute targeted CFD for flow/pressure‑drop as needed; correlate with hand calculations and test data.
• SolidWorks ownership: Build robust parametric parts/assemblies; manage configurations/design tables; release production‑ready drawings with proper GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and BOMs.
• PDM & change control: Use SolidWorks PDM (or similar) for versioning, approvals, and ECOs; maintain clean design intent and references.
• DFM/DFA & collaboration: Partner with manufacturing/suppliers on materials, processes, and tolerances; participate in design/peer reviews; document decisions, risks, and mitigation.
• Documentation: Maintain specs, calculation notes, and release packages that are audit‑ready and easy for others to use.
