SUMMARY:
Mechanical Design Engineer - Netherlands
POSITION INFO:
As a Mechanical Design Engineer and member of an international Product Development Team, you will work on advanced industrial propulsion and motion systems used in large-scale engineering applications. You will take ownership of design tasks early in your role engineering parts, assemblies, and system arrangements from concept phase through to manufacturing-ready solutions.
You will collaborate closely with experienced engineers, technical specialists, and cross-functional project teams across multiple global development hubs. Your work will span both new product development and the continuous improvement of an existing product portfolio. This is a hands-on, growth-oriented role well suited to someone eager to deepen their expertise in complex mechanical systems and contribute to technically challenging, real-world applications.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Designing and developing mechanical components, assemblies, and system layouts from concept to production.
- Conducting engineering analyses, calculations, and 3D modeling to ensure robust and efficient designs.
- Ensuring all mechanical designs comply with relevant specifications, standards, and certification requirements.
- Working with multidisciplinary project teams to align design intent, resolve technical challenges, and support integration into larger systems.
- Performing feasibility studies and validating design decisions through analytical methods and simulations.
- Updating and optimizing existing designs to implement improvements and support product evolution.
- Presenting technical findings and design documentation to internal teams and project stakeholders.
- Contributing to the development and refinement of internal engineering processes, guidelines, and best practices.
- Staying informed about relevant industry advancements and emerging engineering methods.
Qualifications and Requirements- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in mechanical engineering, marine engineering, or a closely related field.
- Experience in mechanical product development, or strong motivation to grow in this area.
- Proficiency in 3D CAD modeling (Siemens NX preferred, but other professional CAD tools are suitable).
- Experience generating technical drawings and understanding manufacturing processes.
- Strong grasp of mechanical design principles, materials, and production methods.
- Familiarity with Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) practices.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with an innovative, solution-oriented mindset.
- Excellent communication skills in English; willingness to learn Dutch is encouraged.
- Ability to work effectively in a multicultural, collaborative, and internationally oriented environment.
- A positive, proactive attitude, eagerness to learn, and ability to adapt quickly.
