Your Goal
As a Mechanical Engineer at Cleaveland/Price, your primary goal will be to contribute and help lead in the advancement of various disconnect switch product lines. You will be responsible for designing, analyzing, and testing key mechanical components, assemblies, and systems, with a primary focus on tactical goals. Your expertise will be required when designing structural components, electrical contacts and linkages for both new and existing products. Your sound knowledge of mechanical engineering principles will allow you to analyze and vet-out your own designs throughout the prototyping phase, while also providing technical recommendations to project managers and guidance to entry-level engineers. Additionally, we would like you to have the ability to produce your own drawings, and when working on a larger project, partner with a drafter as needed. Finally, this individual is comfortable working in a hands-on environment, testing and validating products, ensuring they meet all applicable standards. This comprehensive skillset makes you a valuable asset in our engineering development team.
