Job Description

Central Wisconsin (Wausau / Marshfield Area) | Relocation Available

Compensation

$90,000 – $125,000 + Bonus + Profit Sharing

The Opportunity

We are partnered with a highly specialized engineering and manufacturing company that designs and builds custom automated machinery used across North America.

This is not a traditional design role.

Engineers here are responsible for the full lifecycle of each machine — from concept and design through fabrication, testing, and final customer delivery. Every project is different, and your work is visible in real-world production environments.

If you are looking to move beyond repetitive design work and into a role with true ownership and variety, this is where it happens.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Design custom machinery and automated equipment using SolidWorks

  • Work with mechanical systems including conveyors, gearboxes, motors, and pneumatics

  • Develop detailed BOMs and mechanical assemblies

  • Collaborate with fabrication and assembly teams during builds

  • Support in-house testing and machine runoffs

  • Interface with internal teams and customers throughout project lifecycle

What We’re Looking For

  • Mechanical Engineering degree or relevant technical background

  • Strong SolidWorks experience

  • Experience in machinery, automation, or capital equipment

  • Mechanical systems knowledge (power transmission, pneumatics, motion systems)

  • Hands-on mindset with strong problem-solving ability

Why Engineers Make This Move

  • Full ownership from concept to completion

  • No layers of bureaucracy — direct access to leadership

  • Highly customized work (no repeat designs)

  • Profit sharing and strong benefits

  • Stable, long-standing engineering company

  • Relocation support provided

Ideal Backgrounds

  • Machine Design Engineers

  • Mechanical Design Engineers in automation or manufacturing

  • Engineers from conveyor systems, packaging, or capital equipment

  • Manufacturing Engineers looking to move into design
