About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Mechanical Designer to join our engineering team inside an innovative manufacturer of automated packaging machines. In this role, you will be involved in the design and development of complex filling and packaging machinery.
Main responsibilities will include:
Mechanical Design: Design new parts or upgrade existing project with the full design lifecycle of packaging machine modules — from concept and 3D modelling to detailed drawings, BOM management, and drawing release — ensuring manufacturability, reliability, and ease of maintenance. Support the Operation Dept. in supply assembly drawing and explain functioning of the parts.
PDM / Vault Management: work inside an environment using and maintain the CAD data management platform (SolidWorks PDM Vault), ensuring proper file versioning, revision control, access permissions, and structured release workflows across the engineering team.
Design Automation: Develop and maintain parametric models, design tables,



and automated drawing generation workflows to accelerate variant configuration and reduce engineering lead times.
Kinematics & Cinematics: Design and validate mechanical kinematic systems (cams, linkages, servo-driven axes) and produce detailed machine cinematics — motion studies, timing diagrams, and dynamic simulations — to verify cycle performance and interference clearances before prototyping.
FEM Analysis: Perform Finite Element Analysis on critical structural and dynamic components (frames, shafts, sealing jaws, guideways) to verify stiffness, fatigue life, and deformation under operational loads, using results to drive design iterations.
Cross‐functional Collaboration: Work alongside automation and controls engineers to integrate mechanical assemblies with servo systems, pneumatics, and electrical routing; participate in design reviews and DFMEA sessions.
Manufacturing Support: Provide technical guidance to production and assembly teams; manage e
