Rochester, NYHelp engineer the next generation of lightweight solar technology. My client is seeking a hands-on mechanical design engineer to solve challenging structural problems and help turn an innovative, frameless solar module into a robust, scalable commercial product. Why You Should Apply Make a direct impact on emerging U.S. renewable-energy technology Own meaningful product-design challenges instead of one small piece of a mature product Join a small, highly collaborative engineering team where your ideas matter Work across design, simulation, prototyping, testing and commercialization Relocation assistance available for the right candidate
What You’ll Be Doing:
Own mechanical design of advanced solar modules and assemblies Develop concepts and detailed designs using Solid Works Perform structural/FEA modeling for stress, loading, deflection and durability Solve design challenges involving lightweight structures and wind loading Drive designs through prototype, testing, validation and manufacturing Design occasional fixtures/tooling supporting pilot production
About You:
Strong Solid Works product-design background Structural analysis, FEA and mechanical modeling expertise Experience designing complex, real-world products/componentsCFD, composites, polymers/seals or wind modeling is a plus Solar experience is welcomed but not required

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
