Mechanical / Design Engineer

Are you a hands-on Mechanical Design Engineer who thrives on turning ideas into precision-built process systems? Join a dynamic engineering team that designs and manufactures custom equipment for some of South Africa’s leading food and beverage producers.

This is a full-cycle design role — from concept to commissioning — where your creativity, technical skill, and attention to hygienic design detail will make a visible impact on production performance and product quality.

Job Details

• Collaborate with clients to understand process needs and translate them into efficient, hygienic system designs.
• Design and model equipment such as tanks, pumps, heat exchangers, dosing systems, and CIP systems using 3D CAD (SolidWorks / Inventor).
• Prepare detailed manufacturing drawings, bills of materials, and technical specifications.
• Select suitable materials and finishes (stainless steel, food-grade) and apply sound engineering calculations.
• Work closely with the fabrication and workshop teams to ensure designs are practical, accurate, and cost-effective.
• Oversee installation, commissioning, and performance testing of systems.
• Continuously improve designs for performance, safety, and efficiency.
