to join our dynamic Research & Development team. The successful candidate will play a key role in the design, development, testing, and improvement of foundation engineering equipment such as piling rigs, diaphragm wall equipment, rotary drilling machines, and related accessories. This position demands a blend of mechanical engineering expertise, innovative thinking, and a strong understanding of geotechnical applications.
Key Responsibilities:
Design and develop new foundation equipment and systems to meet performance, safety, and cost objectives.
Improve and optimize existing product lines (e.g., rotary drilling rigs, hydraulic grabs, CFA rigs).
Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Product Management, Manufacturing, and Field Service to translate market needs into technical solutions.
Conduct structural and mechanical analysis (FEA, stress testing, fatigue analysis) for equipment components.
Lead prototype development, testing, and validation in lab and field environments.
Prepare technical documentation: design drawings, specifications, test plans, and reports.
Research and apply new technologies, materials, and manufacturing processes to improve equipment performance.
Ensure compliance with industry standards, safety regulations, and company quality systems.
Support field trials and gather user feedback to inform design iterations.
Stay current with trends in geotechnical equipment, construction techniques, and emerging R&D methodologies.
Required Qualifications:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field.
5+ years of experience in heavy equipment design, preferably foundation or construction machinery.
Strong knowledge of structural and mechanical design principles.
Proficient in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo) and FEA tools (e.g., ANSYS, Abaqus).
Understanding of hydraulic systems, power transmission, and machine kinematics.
Experience with prototype development and field testing.
Familiarity with industry standards (e.g., EN, ISO, CE, or equivalent).
Good communication skills and ability to work in cross-disciplinary teams.
Willingness to travel occasionally for site testing and customer support.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with geotechnical construction methods (e.g., bored piles, diaphragm walls, CFA, micropiles).
Knowledge of control systems and machine automation.
Background in sustainability-focused design (e.g., low-emission solutions, material efficiency).
* Experience working with global teams or in a multinational engineering environment.
