JBPCO prides itself on providing best-in-class commercial automotive and industrial vehicles.

Participate in hands-on prototype builds, fit checks, and validation activities.
Utilize 3D printing for prototyping, concept evaluation, fixtures, or low-volume components.
Incorporate additive manufacturing constraints and capabilities into design work when applicable.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Collaborate with mechanical engineers, designers, fabricators, and cross functional teams.
Serve as an internal centralized engineering resource to multiple business units, supporting diverse project needs.
Communicate directly with customers to gather requirements, present designs, and provide technical insights.
Work with suppliers on feasibility reviews, design improvements, and manufacturing considerations.

Project Leadership & Mentoring

Lead engineering projects from concept through design release and handoff.
Support multi-disciplinary project teams as a key contributor.
Train, mentor, and guide interns, new engineers, and junior technical staff.

Qualifications and Skills:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
2 – 4 years of experience in mechanical engineering, preferably in automotive or commercial vehicle industries.
Proficiency in SolidWorks.
Strong understanding of:

o GD&T
o Tolerance analysis
o Product lifecycle
o DFMEA / PFMEA
o DFM

Familiarity with automotive and commercial truck standards (SAE, ISO, FMVSS).
Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
Hands-on prototyping and experience with 3D printing technologies.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience with body design

Experience with Microsoft Suite of tools

A team-oriented engineer who can lead when necessary and support others when needed.
A self starter who thrives working on varied projects in a dynamic environment.
