Job Description:

At AMETEK, we don’t just manufacture market-leading electronic instruments and electromechanical devices — we are using innovation to make the world a better place; technology to improve lives; and talent to solve challenges that matter.

Job Summary:

The Mechanical Engineer with Project Management & Product Development responsibilities will be tasked with leading the design, improvement, and project execution of AMETEK Solidstate Controls’ (SCI) UPS and Battery Charger power sources, as well as the Bargraph indicator product line. This role leverages a mechanical engineering foundation to manage technical projects and orders, support new and existing product development, and ensure alignment with customer requirements, production needs, timelines, and business objectives.

Working within a fast-paced production and manufacturing environment, the engineer collaborates cross-functionally with Manufacturing, Quality, Electrical Engineering, Sales, and Service to drive successful product outcomes, sustain manufacturing throughput, and lead VAVE initiatives. Day-to-day responsibilities include mechanical design support, manufacturing issue resolution, documentation and tooling updates, and product improvements across the UPS, Battery Charger, and Bargraph product lines, from concept through production release.

Key Responsibilities:

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Product Lifecycle

Provide mechanical design input, documentation updates, and manufacturability improvements for UPS and Battery Charger product development, and troubleshoot enclosure, harness, hardware, and assembly issues for SCI and Sheet Metal teams to sustain throughput and quality.
Support SCI new-product introduction and sustaining-engineering activities from concept through production release.
Lead project management for Bargraph initiatives from initiation through delivery, defining scope, schedules, and resource needs, and maintaining plans and tracking tools to keep programs on time and on budget.
Serve as the mechanical engineering point of contact across the UPS, Battery Charger, and Bargraph product lines, leading cross-functional collaboration with Manufacturing, Quality, and Electrical Engineering throughout the full product lifecycle.
Partner with Sales, Quoting, and Service to align product designs with customer, application, and field-support requirements, translating those requirements into manufacturable engineering solutions.
Work with Manufacturing and Quality to resolve production concerns and support timely release of updated designs, drawings, BOMs, and work instructions.
Support obsolescence management and design updates for legacy Bargraph products.
Drive Value Analysis / Value Engineering (VAVE) initiatives, evaluating components, materials, and assembly techniques to reduce cost while maintaining performance and reliability.

Minimum Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering field
3+ years of mechanical design and product-development experience, preferably in a production or manufacturing environment
Proficiency with 3D modeling/CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, or Inventor) and AutoCAD, including the creation of 2D drawings and bills of material (BOMs)
Working knowledge of sheet metal design, enclosures, PCB/display integration, and assembly processes
Working project management skills, including the ability to plan, schedule, and coordinate small projects, with strong organizational and problem-solving abilities
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
Proficiency in Microsoft Office and project management tools (e.g., MS Project)

Desired Qualifications:

Ability to convey technical information to diverse audiences
Strong analytical thinking and adaptability
Knowledge of nuclear or other regulated product requirements is a plus
High attention to detail and commitment to quality

What’s in It for You:

Competitive compensation, holiday pay, and paid time off
Great benefits package that includes health, vision, and dental insurance
401(k), plus matching
Flexible spending accounts (FSAs), health savings account (HSA) with AMETEK contribution, life insurance, disability insurance, and family medical leave
Employee referral program
Tuition reimbursement program
