Mechanical Design Engineer (Fresher)


We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic

Fresher Mechanical Design Engineer

to join our team, specializing in the design and development of industrial

filling and packaging machinery

. This entry-level role is ideal for a recent graduate with a strong foundation in mechanical engineering principles, CAD software, and a passion for machine design, automation, and manufacturing processes. The successful candidate will work under the guidance of senior engineers to contribute to all phases of the product lifecycle, from concept and detailed design to testing and final implementation.

Key Roles and Responsibilities
The primary responsibilities of the Fresher Mechanical Design Engineer will involve supporting the engineering team in various design and documentation tasks:

1. Design and Drafting Support

3D Modeling and 2D Drafting:

Create and modify detailed

3D models

and

2D engineering drawings

of machine components, sub-assemblies, and complete machine layouts using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Inventor).

Component Selection:

Assist in the selection of standard mechanical components such as motors, gears, bearings, pneumatics, and fasteners, ensuring they meet design specifications and industry standards.

Design Documentation:

Maintain and update the engineering documentation library, including Bills of Materials (

BOMs

), assembly instructions, and technical specifications for manufacturing.
2. Analysis and Optimization

Basic Calculations:

Perform fundamental engineering calculations (e.g., stress, strain, tolerance, material strength) to validate design integrity and functionality.

Tolerance Stacks:

Conduct

tolerance analysis

to ensure proper fit and function between mating parts, focusing on designs for manufacturability and assembly (

DFMA

).

Prototyping Assistance:

Support the engineering team during the prototyping and initial build phase, observing and reporting on machine performance and identifying areas for design improvement.
3. Manufacturing and Quality Liaison

Supplier Interaction:

Work with procurement and external suppliers to review component specifications and ensure timely delivery of parts according to design requirements.

Shop Floor Support:

Act as a technical resource for the production and assembly teams, addressing design-related queries and providing clarification on engineering drawings.

Quality Checks:

Participate in the inspection and testing of finished components and assemblies to confirm they adhere to the design specifications and quality standards.
4. Continuous Improvement and Learning

Standards Compliance:

Learn and adhere to industry-specific safety, hygiene, and performance standards relevant to food/beverage and pharmaceutical packaging equipment (e.g.,

FDA, GMP

).

Problem-Solving:

Assist senior engineers in investigating and resolving mechanical failures, performance issues, and root cause analysis during testing or field deployment.

Documentation:

Prepare technical reports, design review presentations, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) as required.
Qualifications

Education and Experience

Bachelor's degree

in Mechanical Engineering or a related field from an accredited institution.

No prior full-time industry experience required

(0-1 year of experience is acceptable, including relevant internships or academic projects).
Technical Skills

Proficiency in at least one major

3D CAD software

(e.g.,

Onshape,

SolidWorks, Inventor, CATIA). Strong understanding of

GD&T

(Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) principles. Solid knowledge of mechanical engineering fundamentals, including

statics, dynamics, material science

, and

machine design

. Familiarity with manufacturing processes such as

CNC machining, welding, sheet metal fabrication

, and various surface treatments.
Soft Skills

Excellent

written and verbal communication

skills. Strong

problem-solving

and analytical abilities with a keen attention to detail. Ability to

work collaboratively

in a team environment and take direction from senior staff. Proactive attitude and a strong desire to learn and take ownership of tasks.
This role offers an excellent opportunity to gain practical experience in the specialized field of automated machinery design. Do you want to explore the specific technical challenges unique to filling and packaging equipment, such as high-speed mechanics or hygienic design?
