Mechanical Engineer (2 needed)

MECHANICAL ENGINEER / MACHINE  DESIGNERS 3 needed in/near Fort Wayne

This seems to be the “dream job” for a mechanical engineer.  You get to dream up solutions to manufacturing problems, create the conceptual framework for the machinery to solve the problem, design the solution, and manage the project in building the equipment (guiding automation and electrical folks), until it is ultimately proven in manufacturing.  This is a fantastic cradle to grave opportunity for the engineer who wants to see their visions become  a reality!

The machines you create will fabricate, assemble, and package consumer and/or automotive products.  A background as a Mechanical Engineer and custom equipment designer, or as a Mechanical Engineer designing equipment to automate processes in a manufacturing operation would be perfect.
