Job Description

Job Summary:
The client is seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer with expertise in the design and analysis of static mechanical parts for RF and telecommunication equipment. The role involves developing robust enclosures, housings, and thermal management systems for electronic assemblies used in high-frequency communication devices. The ideal candidate will have a solid understanding of thermal behavior, mechanical integrity, and manufacturability of precision components used in RF modules
Key Responsibilities:

• Design static mechanical components such as RF enclosures, chassis, brackets, and heat-dissipating structures for communication systems.
• Perform thermal and structural analyses to ensure optimal heat dissipation, dimensional stability, and structural integrity under varying environmental conditions.
• Work closely with RF, PCB, and electrical engineers to integrate mechanical designs with high-frequency electronic systems.
• Develop 3D CAD models, 2D detailed drawings, and bills of materials (BOM) using tools such as Fusion 360 or SolidWorks.
• Select appropriate materials and coatings (e.g., aluminum alloys, copper, conductive coatings) to ensure optimal RF shielding, heat transfer, and manufacturability.
• Collaborate with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure design feasibility for CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, or die casting.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards and environmental requirements (e.g., MIL-STD, IEC, IP, and thermal cycling).
• Support prototype assembly, testing, and validation of RF and telecommunication hardware.
• Prepare engineering reports, test documentation, and maintain revision control for design updates.

Salary: $90,000 - $110,000
