Job Title: Senior Mechanical Design Engineer
Company: Ledvore Limited
Location: Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu (On-site)
Experience: 11 to 13 years
Industry: Industrial Automation / Machinery
We are looking for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer who can take a special purpose machine from a blank sheet to a working installation. This is not a drafting or detailing role. If you have spent your career modelling parts to someone else's specification, this will not suit you.
Key Responsibilities
Read the client requirement, challenge it where it is incomplete, and develop the concept and layout
Carry out full mechanical design of special-purpose machines, conveyor systems and automated equipment including structures, mechanisms, guarding, pneumatics and motion
Design and integrate conveyor systems (belt, roller, chain, pallet-handling and transfer systems) into complete machine builds
Select components: size and choose pneumatic cylinders, actuators, linear guides, bearings, drives, motors, sensors and structural sections based on load, stroke, cycle time and duty
Carry out market and vendor sourcing: research suppliers, compare specifications and pricing, download supplier CAD models and integrate them into the assembly
Produce manufacturing and assembly drawings that a machine shop can build from directly
Support build, commissioning and design changes on the shop floor
Required Skills and Experience
11 to 13 years designing and building special-purpose machines, conveyor systems, automation equipment, jigs or fixtures. Candidates must have built machines, not just modelled parts
Proven machine-building experience — from concept through to installation and commissioning
Automation knowledge — PLC, EOAT, HMI, sensors
Robust proficiency in SOLIDWORKS or equivalent 3D CAD, including large assemblies and drawing standards
Demonstrable component selection ability. Candidates will be asked to justify components chosen on a past machine and explain the reasoning
Excellent spoken
