Mechanical Engineer – Battery Pack Manufacturing
Location: Forth Worth, Texas
Department: Engineering
Employment Type: Full-Time, Onsite
About the Role
NuEnergy Storage Technologies is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to lead the mechanical design, validation, and production readiness of lithium-ion battery products. This role will act as the technical bridge between product design and manufacturing, ensuring that mechanical designs meet performance, reliability and manufacturability requirements.
Responsibilities:
Product Mechanical Design
- Lead mechanical design of battery components (enclosures, cell holders, bus bars, cooling structures, gaskets, adhesives, and safety hardware).
- Develop CAD models, detailed drawings, GD&T, BOMs, and configuration control through product lifecycle management (PLM).
Manufacturability & Process Integration
- Translate product requirements into manufacturing specifications and process controls.
- Support DFM/DFMA activities and drive design updates to improve yield, cycle time, cost, and part robustness.
Cross-Functional Engineering
- Work with electrical, BMS, thermal, quality, manufacturing, and supplier engineering to ensure integrated product performance.
- Technical Product Marketing
Compliance & Standards
- Ensure product compliance with relevant standards (UN 38.3, UL 2580, IEC 62660, OEM battery pack specifications).
- Support technical documentation for safety, certification, and regulatory requirements.
Qualifications
- B.S./M.S. in Mechanical Engineering
- 3–8+ years in product mechanical engineering, preferably in battery, EV, or energy storage
- Strong expertise in CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, CATIA, or NX).
- Hands-on problem-solving skills and ability to work cross-functionally in fast-paced product development environments.
Why This Role Matters
This role will be directly responsible for ensuring that battery products are mechanically robust, manufacturable at scale, reliable in the field, and compliant with global safety standards—a critical function in enabling next-generation energy storage.
