Job Description

Mechanical Engineer

– Automation \& Robotics

πŸ“ 100% Onsite - Columbus, OH

πŸ’° $90,000 – $150,000 (DOE)

🟒 Direct Hire

Ready to help build the future of manufacturing?

We’re partnering with a cutting-edge robotics automation organization that is transforming how intelligent systems operate in real-world manufacturing environments. This team tackles complex engineering challenges and builds systems that adapt, learn, and continuously improve.

If you’re a Mechanical Engineer who thrives on hands-on machine design, robotics integration, and seeing your work deployed in the field β€” this is your opportunity.

What You’ll Do:

  • Design welding fixtures, tooling, and robotic cell layouts for automated systems
  • Create manufacturing-ready drawings, BOMs, and detailed SolidWorks models (GD\&T required)
  • Perform structural validation using FEA to guide smart design decisions
  • Integrate pneumatic and low-voltage electrical subsystems into mechanical assemblies
  • Prototype, build, validate, and support onsite installations
  • Drive continuous improvement through engineering change requests and field feedback
  • Partner with manufacturing and supply chain to improve cost, scalability, and deployment efficiency

What We’re Looking For:

  • B.S. in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
  • 2–6\+ years of machine design experience in automation or robotics
  • Strong SolidWorks skills (including Simulation/FEA)
  • Experience with fixture design, robotic cells, and production automation hardware
  • Hands-on mindset β€” comfortable on the shop floor
  • Understanding of machine safety and mechanical risk reduction
  • Experience working within PDM/PLM systems

Why This Role Stands Out:

βœ” $90K–$150K salary range based on experience

βœ” Direct hire with long-term growth potential

βœ” Real ownership β€” your designs go from concept to deployment

βœ” Daily free lunch

βœ” Flexible PTO

βœ” Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage

βœ” 401(k)

βœ” Paid parental leave

βœ” Highly collaborative, engineering-driven culture

If you’re motivated by solving meaningful engineering challenges and building smarter automation systems, let’s connect.
