Mechanical Engineer (m/ž)

Rijeka

Best-known for the vessel fleets it produces for the U.S. Armed Forces and allies around the globe, Metal Shark has expanded its focus to include state, local, and commercial operators across a wide range of markets. Today, the Louisiana based company produces a wider range of specialty vessels than perhaps any comparable yard. Key markets served include fire rescue, law enforcement, military, passenger vessels, pilot boats, various workboat operators and other specialty operators.

Position Summary:

The Mechanical Engineer (ME) works as part of a multi-discipline design team to develop new and modified boat designs to meet customer needs.
Under the direction of the Project Engineer, the ME plans and designs the integration of commercial off the shelf and unique mechanical systems into Aluminum boats ranging from 20 to 200 feet in length
The ME works with vendors and develops analyses to ensure the designs are effective and efficient. The Mechanical Functional Lead will provide resources and support during the design process and will be available for consultation and direction as the ME communicates progress and any design challenges encountered
The ME utilizes 3D modeling during the design process to ensure components have proper space where they are intended to be installed
The ME works with structural engineers to provide all required information to create foundations for all mechanical systems
The ME documents the designs in workshop drawings and schematics, ensuring the drawings are technically accurate and the design is fully complete with all required details for production
The ME will also be responsible for developing, maintaining, and documenting standard design configurations and procedures, as part of Metal Shark’s Continuous Process Improvement Effort

Qualifications:

Educational Background:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
Professional certifications or relevant engineering certifications are a plus.

Experience:

Minimum of 2-5 years of experience in mechanical design, ideally in the maritime or boat manufacturing industry.
Experience with 3D modeling software, such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Rhinoceros, or similar, for component design and system integration.

Technical Skills:
