Are you looking to work for a company that provides an innovative work environment, and your voice is heard?

We are seeking a hands-on Mechanical Development Engineer to support engine and component durability testing within a Mechanical Development (MED) team environment. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys being in the test cell, working directly with engines, instrumentation, and data—not just running simulations or writing reports.

The primary focus of this role is engine and rotating component testing, including pistons, connecting rods, cranktrain, and valvetrain systems, under high-temperature, high-load, and high-strain conditions. You will be responsible for test setup, execution, data acquisition, teardown, and documentation across multiple engine development programs.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Set up and execute engine and component durability tests (engine dyno and bench testing)
