Location: Pune, Onsite

About Job Role

We are seeking a Senior Mechatronics & Mechanical Design Engineer with 8-12 years of experience to lead and execute New Product Development (NPD), product redesign, sustenance, and VAVE programs across fire-suppression and nitrogen-generation platforms, with scope to support other fire and life-safety products. This is a player-coach role that combines technical program leadership with substantial individual contribution in system architecture, mechanical concept development, SolidWorks modelling,

detailed drawings, design calculations, prototype build, verification, and controlled engineering release.

The role owns assigned projects from product requirements and concept selection through detailed electromechanical design, validation, production handoff, and lifecycle improvement. The successful candidate will combine strong mechanical CAD and product-design expertise with systems-level understanding of pneumatic and pressure systems, compressors, motors, valves, sensors, controls, and firmware interfaces. Success is measured by robust, production-ready products and implemented value improvements delivered without compromising safety, regulatory compliance, quality, reliability,

serviceability, or customer performance.

Key Responsibilities

NPD, Sustenance & VAVE Program Leadership

- Lead assigned NPD, product redesign, sustenance, and VAVE programs from charter and requirements through detailed design, validation, engineering release, and production handoff.
- Define project scope, technical requirements, deliverables, resources, schedules, dependencies,

risks, and stage-gate decisions in coordination with US stakeholders.
- Balance program ownership with substantial hands-on engineering contribution; personally develop concepts, CAD models, drawings, calculations, prototypes, and corrective design actions.
- Lead multiple engineering workstreams and provide concise technical, schedule, risk, and decision reporting to engineering leadership.
- Facilitate design reviews, product teardowns, function analysis, competitive benchmarking,

design-to-cost workshops, and structured concept-generation sessions.
- Drive closure of technical issues and ensure NPD and VAVE ideas progress into complete,

validated, configuration-controlled product changes.

Product Architecture, Mechanical Design & Systems Engineering

- Develop deep technical ownership of the Suppression product portfolio, including nitrogen generators and related accessories, internal components, operating modes, variants, and system interfaces.
- Translate customer, product, safety, regulatory, installation, service, and manufacturing needs into clear mechanical and mechatronic requirements.
- Create and evaluate product architectures involving compressors, motors, receiver tanks,

membranes, filters, regulators, solenoid valves, tubing, fittings, enclosures, skids, sensors,

controller electronics, and user interfaces.

- Drive modularity and platform commonality while performing engineering calculations and tradeoff studies covering pressure and flow, structural integrity,



vibration, thermal behaviour, fasteners,

tolerances, materials, service access, and packaging.
- Maintain interface integrity across mechanical systems, industrial electrical controls, embedded hardware, firmware, validation, installation, manufacturing, and field service.

Hands-on CAD Design & Engineering Implementation
- Personally create and modify SolidWorks 3D parts, large assemblies, configurations, sheet-metal components, weldments, machined, cast and plastic parts, tubing routes, and equipment layouts for NPD and redesign projects.
- Prepare production-ready 2D drawings with GD&T;, tolerance stack-ups, materials, finishes,

welding and fabrication requirements, critical characteristics, assembly notes, and complete

BOMs.

- Own prototype builds, fit and function reviews, design iterations, root-cause resolution, and

ECR/ECO release through PDM/PLM systems; ensure models, drawings, BOMs, specifications, and test requirements remain aligned.

Value Engineering, Cost & Manufacturability

- Apply VAVE, teardown, function analysis, design-to-cost, should-costing, DFM/DFA, and part count reduction to identify practical product and process improvements.
- Develop fact-based options and business cases covering material, labour, tooling, NRE, test, scrap,

inventory, warranty, service, ROI, payback, and implementation risk.
- Implement cost reductions through material and process substitution, tolerance optimization,

commonization, modularity, supplier-process alignment, and assembly simplification; track projected versus realized benefits.

Validation, Compliance & Risk Management

- Define and execute system and mechanical verification strategies, including DVP&R;, dimensional,

functional, pressure and leak, flow, thermal, vibration, endurance, environmental, reliability, and fault-condition testing.
- Lead design reviews, DFMEA, tolerance and risk analyses; use prototype, production, field-return,

and test data to resolve failures and improve robustness.
- Ensure designs preserve nitrogen purity, pressure and flow performance, compressor duty cycle,

structural and pressure safety, electrical interfaces, reliability, serviceability, and field performance.
- Assess certification impact and provide technical evidence to Compliance teams for UL, FM, NFPA,

IEC, pressure-system, or other applicable requirements; escalate risks with clear mitigation and decision options.

Team & Stakeholder Leadership

- Provide technical direction and mentoring to mechanical, electrical, firmware, validation, CAD, and supplier-engineering contributors while remaining accountable for personal design deliverables.
- Coordinate effectively with US Engineering, Product Management, Supply Chain,

Manufacturing, Compliance, Quality, Finance, service teams, suppliers, and test laboratories.
- Create reusable product architecture maps, CAD and drawing standards, design guidelines,





preferred components, VAVE practices, lessons learned, and engineering checklists.

Key Success Measures

- Successful delivery of NPD, redesign, sustenance, and VAVE projects against committed scope,

schedule, technical performance, quality, and cost targets.
- High-quality individual contribution through accurate CAD models, drawings, calculations, BOMs,

prototypes, test evidence, and release packages.
- Production-ready designs that meet requirements and transition smoothly through prototype,

validation, sourcing, manufacturing, and release.
- No adverse impact on safety, regulatory compliance, reliability, serviceability, installation,

warranty, or field performance.
- Implemented recurring cost savings and measurable reduction in part proliferation, assembly complexity, product variants, wiring, and tubing.
- Development of deep technical ownership, reusable design platforms, and stronger IEC capability for Fire Suppression products.

Qualifications

- 8-12 years of product engineering experience in mechatronics or mechanical design, including

NPD, product sustenance, redesign, and VAVE/cost-out programs, with 3-5 years leading multidisciplinary engineering projects.
- Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or an equivalent electromechanical discipline; a relevant Master's degree is an advantage.
- Demonstrated player-coach capability: experience leading projects while personally creating CAD models, drawings, calculations, prototypes, and engineering-release deliverables.
- Advanced hands-on proficiency with SolidWorks for 3D part and assembly modelling,

configurations, sheet metal, weldments, routing, and production drawings; CSWP, CSWE, or equivalent certification is desirable.
- Strong knowledge of GD&T;, tolerance stack-up, materials, manufacturing processes, DFM/DFA,

DFMEA, design reviews, prototype development, and root-cause problem solving.
- Experience designing complex electromechanical products combining mechanical structures,

pneumatic or pressure systems, compressors, AC motors and industrial controls, embedded electronics, sensors, actuators, and firmware interfaces.
