Job Description
Senior Mechanical Engineer designing heavy machinery and mining infrastructure with SolidWorks. Managing Australian engineering projects from concept through fabrication, installation, and commissioning.
Responsibilities:
- Lead the end-to-end mechanical design, modeling, and detailing of heavy machinery, materials handling systems, and structural components using SolidWorks.
- Manage full-lifecycle engineering projects from initial scoping and conceptual design through to fabrication, site installation, and commissioning.
- Perform mechanical design calculations, structural analysis, and design verification to meet client operational requirements and safety regulations.
- Interface directly with Australian clients, fabricators, and field engineers to manage project timelines, deliverables, and technical variations.
- Produce comprehensive engineering documentation, including detail drawings, general arrangements, Bill of Materials (BOMs), and maintenance manuals.
- Conduct Design Risk Assessments (Safety in Design/HAZOP) and ensure all fabrications align with strict quality and safety protocols.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent qualification.
- 5+ years of mechanical engineering design experience, ideally within heavy industry, mining, or machinery manufacturing.
- Proven track record supporting Australian clients or working within Australian engineering standards and business environments.
- Expert-level proficiency in SolidWorks for complex 3D assembly modeling and detailed drafting.
- Demonstrated experience managing engineering projects from concept through execution with minimal oversight.
- Strong knowledge of relevant Australian Standards (e.g., AS 1100, AS 4024, AS 3990) preferred.
- Experience with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software (e.g., SolidWorks Simulation, ANSYS) preferred.
- Hands-on field experience with mining equipment commissioning, maintenance, or troubleshooting preferred.
- Strong client-facing communication and stakeholder management skills preferred.
