Sr. Design Engineer

Job Title: Sr. Design Engineer – Custom Fabrication & Product Development
Location: Sedalia, MO (Relocation Support Available)

Overview: A nationally respected manufacturing group is seeking a Senior Design Engineer to lead end-to-end product development for complex, stainless-steel based commercial equipment. If you thrive on translating customer needs into manufacturable solutions and can own a project from sketch to shop floor, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do:

• Own mechanical design projects from concept through production for custom fabricated products

• Create 3D CAD models, detailed drawings, BOMs, and production documentation (SolidWorks preferred)

• Collaborate cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and customers to ensure feasibility and functionality

• Participate in design reviews, proto@type evaluations, and continuous improvement initiatives

• Evaluate materials, tolerances, DFM/DFA, and value engineering opportunities

• Drive timelines and deliverables across multiple product lines or customer-specific solutions

• Support sustaining engineering and cost reduction efforts across existing product portfolio

Who You Are:

• Proven experience as a design engineer in a manufacturing environment — this is not a fit for recent grads or entry-level candidates

• Strong background in mechanical design, with a focus on sheet metal, stainless fabrication, or food equipment a big plus

• Expert in 3D CAD (SolidWorks preferred), with a strong understanding of manufacturing methods and tolerancing

• Comfortable in a fast-paced environment where autonomy and follow-through matter

• Detail-oriented, process-driven, and a strong team player with excellent communication skills

What You’ll Get:

• Competitive base salary (DOE) + strong benefits

• Career path into senior technical leadership or product ownership

• Real relocation assistance for the right candidate

• A workplace that values precision, accountability, and craftsmanship

If you're a hands-on engineer ready to take ownership of real design work in a manufacturing setting—this is your shot.
