Mechanical Engineer

Trane Technologies • Fort Worth, TX

8d • Hybrid

About The Position

The Mechanical Engineer designs, develops, and tests mechanical systems and components across the full product development lifecycle, from concept generation through design, prototyping, testing, validation, and manufacturing implementation. The role calls for strong analytical skills, knowledge of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and materials science, and proficiency with modern computer-aided design (CAD) software.

The engineer develops mechanical concepts and system designs, creates 3D models and 2D manufacturing drawings with GD&T, and selects materials and manufacturing processes. The role also involves structural, thermal, and fluid-dynamics analysis; tolerance stack-up analysis; prototype coordination; test planning and execution; and analysis of test results to identify root causes and improve designs.

The position collaborates with electrical and software engineers, product managers, project managers, manufacturing teams, and suppliers. It supports design for manufacturing and assembly, resolves production and quality issues, and maintains technical documentation such as assembly instructions, bills of materials, engineering change orders, and product specifications. The work is onsite Monday through Thursday, with the employee choosing their work location on Fridays based on work requirements.

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering field.
• Strong analytical skills.
• Solid understanding of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and materials science.
• Proficiency with modern computer-aided design (CAD) software.

Nice To Haves

• Master’s degree.

Responsibilities

• Create mechanical concepts and system designs that meet product specifications and customer requirements.
• Develop detailed 3D models and precise 2D manufacturing drawings using CAD tools and appropriate GD&T.
• Select materials and manufacturing processes based on structural, thermal, environmental, and cost requirements.
• Perform stress, strain, fatigue, and vibration calculations using finite element analysis (FEA).
• Analyze thermal performance and fluid flow to optimize heat dissipation, packaging, and efficiency.
• Conduct mechanical tolerance stack-up analyses to support component assembly and reliable system operation.
• Coordinate and assist with physical prototype builds for concept validation and functional testing.
• Define, document, and execute validation test plans, including thermal-cycle, environmental-stress, structural-load, and fatigue testing.
• Analyze test data, troubleshoot failures, identify root causes, and implement design iterations to improve performance and reliability.
• Collaborate with electrical engineers, software engineers, product managers, and project managers.
• Apply design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) to streamline production, reduce costs, and improve quality.
• Work with manufacturing teams and suppliers to resolve production bottlenecks and quality issues.
• Create, release, and maintain technical documentation, including assembly instructions, bills of materials, engineering change orders, and product specifications.

Benefits

• Health insurance and holistic wellness programs with incentives, effective on day one for the employee and family.
• Fertility coverage and adoption/surrogacy assistance.
• Up to 15 vacation days, paid holidays, sick leave, and additional options for volunteer and parental leave.
• 401(k) match.
• Educational and training opportunities through company programs.
• Tuition assistance and student debt support.
