Mechanical Engineer
role at
Harmar
Description Harmar is a leading manufacturer of wheelchair lifts for automobiles, stair lifts for the home, and residential and commercial vertical platform lifts. We are an organization inspired by those who are mobility challenged and are driven to create mobility and accessibility products that allow people to go where they want, when they want, how they want.
We are looking for a Mechanical Engineer to join our growing team. The Mechanical Engineer II will work closely with experienced engineering team members on sustaining and new product innovation, and will report to the Engineering Manager. This position works closely with the product engineering team and other cross‑functional teams while effectively communicating with leadership. Responsibilities include devising and implementing a development methodology that ensures superior mobility products while fostering innovation and creativity within the engineering department.
Responsibilities
Responsible for developing the mechanical and electro‑mechanical systems for lift products. Specific responsibilities include definition, documentation, prototyping, testing, debugging, qualification, and release to production of reliable and cost‑effective solutions.
Evaluate and optimize product concepts for function (e.g., fit, function, interference), manufacturability, packaging, and material handling.
Review/approve finalized engineering product drawings with critical dimensions, performance specifications, GD&T and quality specifications.
Generate product prototypes, perform product testing, and ensure new products function properly, meet specifications, and timing objectives.
Develop and evaluate cost analysis for new and modified product concepts from design through production launch to maximize product value.
Work on special projects such as evaluating competitive product, evaluating vehicle structure related to lift mounting, new processes, and technologies.
Provide support to the Technical Service team to solve mechanical and electromechanical product quality problems with existing products.
Responsible for new development to meet safety compliance requirements (FDA, CE, UL, FCC and others) and coordinate product compliance testing.
Work on selection and standardization of key components.
Work with resources that maintain engineering documentation such as bills of material, procedures, and other types of engineering documentation in PDM system.
Plan and develop test plans, coordinate with internal testing resources, and ensure quality of testing and reporting.
Conduct engineering studies on design of products, associated subsystems and structures.
Analyze data to determine feasibility of product proposals.
Analyze test data and report to determine if design meets functional and performance specifications.
Study engineering and technical publications to keep abreast of technological changes and developments in industry.
Requirements Ability to conceptualize new designs then follow through to completion including all key product design stages: concept, design, technical drawings, prototype review, managing costs, sourcing, and launch.
Experience & Education Requirements
Minimum 2 years of experience in an industrial environment and a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from an ABET accredited engineering college.
Design and development experience in mechanical and electro‑mechanical systems.
CAD experience preferably SolidWorks.
Design control experience through design and process verification and validation.
Understanding and experience in product design and development such as Design for Test (DFT), Design for Manufacturability (DFM), DFMEA/PFMEA, FEA, GD&T, risk analysis, and root cause investigations.
Strong planning/organizational skills with ability to manage projects, multi‑task, and set priorities.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office products.
Harmar Mobility is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against otherwise qualified applicants on the basis of race, color, creed, ancestry, religion, orientation, age, sex, marital status, national origin, disability, genetic information, or veteran status.
