Full Job Description

Hydraulic Cylinders | Sustaining Engineering | VAVE | Reverse Engineering

At Texas Hydraulics/Oilgear, engineering is hands-on, collaborative, and directly connected to the product. We are looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to support the performance, reliability, and continuous improvement of hydraulic cylinders and accumulator products used in demanding industrial and mobile applications.

This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving real-world mechanical problems, improving existing designs, analyzing failures, and working closely with manufacturing and operations teams to drive practical results. You will play a key role in sustaining engineering, value analysis/value engineering (VAVE), and reverse engineering/remanufacturing initiatives.

If you enjoy balancing engineering theory with shop-floor execution, this is an opportunity to make a visible impact.

What You’ll Do

Sustaining Engineering & Product Improvement

Lead sustaining engineering efforts including field issue resolution, design updates, product standardization, and continuous improvement initiatives
Drive VAVE projects focused on cost reduction, manufacturability, quality, and performance optimization
Collaborate cross-functionally with manufacturing, sourcing, quality, and operations teams to implement engineering improvements
Create and maintain engineering documentation including drawings, specifications, models, and bills of material
Support design-for-manufacturability (DFM) initiatives and production process improvements

Hydraulic Cylinder Design

Design and support hydraulic cylinder products for industrial and mobile applications
Perform engineering calculations including:
Bore and stroke sizing
Rod buckling analysis (Euler calculations)
Load path evaluation
Mount selection
Seal system selection and validation
Select appropriate materials and surface treatments including chrome and HVOF applications
Ensure designs meet customer requirements, internal standards, and applicable regulatory requirements
Develop and maintain 3D models and detailed engineering drawings

Reverse Engineering & Remanufacturing

Support teardown, inspection, and reverse engineering activities for hydraulic cylinders and related components
Analyze returned products and failed components to identify root causes and improvement opportunities
Evaluate rods, tubes, seals, weldments, and machined components for wear, reuse potential, and manufacturability
Develop repair standards, inspection criteria, and remanufacturing guidelines
Support corrective actions associated with warranty claims and field failures

Validation & Testing

Develop validation and test plans including pressure, fatigue, and environmental testing
Review and interpret test data to support product improvements
Lead or support root cause investigations and failure analysis activities
Develop DFMEAs and associated risk mitigation plans

What We’re Looking For

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering field
5+ years of experience in mechanical design, sustaining engineering, product support, or related engineering roles
Strong understanding of hydraulic cylinders, mechanical systems, and applied engineering fundamentals
Experience with root cause analysis, corrective actions, and continuous improvement methodologies
Proficiency with CAD and engineering analysis tools such as Creo, ANSYS, Windchill, or similar platforms
Working knowledge of material science as applied to mechanical engineering applications
Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in hydraulic systems, mobile equipment, industrial equipment, or remanufacturing environments
CFPE certification or equivalent industry experience
Experience supporting both new product introduction and sustaining engineering initiatives

What Success Looks Like

Reliable and technically sound engineering solutions
Successful implementation of cost reduction and product improvement initiatives
Strong support of manufacturing and operational goals
Effective resolution of field and warranty issues
High-quality engineering documentation and design execution
Improved product reliability, manufacturability, and customer satisfaction

Why Texas Hydraulics/Oilgear?

At Texas Hydraulics, engineers work closely with operations, manufacturing, and leadership teams to solve complex challenges and improve real-world products. This is not a role where engineering is disconnected from execution — you will see your work move from concept to production and directly influence performance in the field.

Work Environment & Physical Requirements

This position operates in both office and manufacturing environments. While performing the duties of this role, employees may occasionally be exposed to moving mechanical equipment and moderate industrial noise levels.

The position may occasionally require lifting or moving up to 50 pounds. Employees may regularly sit, stand, walk, use hands and arms, and communicate with others throughout the workday. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the role.

Additional Information

Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future employer sponsorship.
