Raptor is looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer for the Edmonton, Alberta, Canada operation.
In this role, you will work closely with customers to determine their design needs for more efficient operation of their equipment. Following design, you will work with our vendor network as well as internal sales and other engineering staff to move products from development to delivery. As such, you are a strong and comfortable communicator who can work with people of diverse backgrounds and responsibilities.
You will use 3D modeling software to produce new designs as well as reverse engineered and improved parts for individual customers. This will require good problem solving skills, a mechanical aptitude and strong analytical skills.
This position is in a lean organization which requires a highly motivated individual with the ability to work alone and expedite projects without direction from others. You may be required to travel both within and outside of Alberta, for up to a week at a time. Visits with customers will require hands-on analysis of site equipment which at times can be dirty, hot and loud.
Do you enjoy working on a variety of projects each week and day? Do you enjoy interacting with customers, vendors and a dynamic sales and engineering team? Are you capable of completing detailed designs and overseeing their productions from start to finish? If so, Raptor is where you want to work!
