Mechnical design engineer

Function

• As a Mechanical Engineer, you work from Opglabbeek on technical solutions that make machines, installations and industrial processes more reliable, safer and more efficient.
• From concept to execution, you translate functional requirements into well-considered mechanical designs, taking into account material selection, manufacturability, maintenance and total service life.
• You create and check technical drawings, 3D models, bills of materials and other design documentation, so that production, assembly and suppliers can get started with clear information.
• Technical calculations, risk analyses and design reviews help you to substantiate choices and detect potential issues before realisation.
• In consultation with colleagues from areas including production, automation, purchasing and project coordination, you safeguard the technical coherence and translate feedback into concrete improvements.
• You monitor the progress of designs and changes, align with external partners where necessary and ensure that agreements, quality requirements and deadlines remain visible.
• As a Mechanical Engineer, you are given the space to critically assess existing solutions and, as a mechanical engineer, to help build a professional, people-oriented environment in which expertise is shared.

Profile
