Mechanical Engineer

Responsibilities

The India System design team is responsible to own and deliver System design milestones for IBM POWER, Storage and mainframe platforms. The team collaborates with Global System design & development teams and stakeholders. As a Mechanical engineer, the candidate must have experiencein mechanical design with 3D mechanical modelling, design for manufacturing, and product release process to join industry leading engineers in pioneering the future of high performance and high reliability mainframe solutions.

Challenges of high performance and high reliability server solutions include high density designs with complex system requirements that require creative solutions from our mechanical design team to optimize system designs. The candidate will work in a multi-functional environment where the requirements of thermal, acoustics, electro-magnetic-compatibility (EMC), structural integrity, safety, industrial design, cost, performance, and functionality must all be satisfied to deliver a final solution. Working with a focused team, the candidate will develop the product design from concept through product release.

Primary responsibilities will be to develop mechanical models through engagement with the expanded team, rapid prototype critical hardware updates, release design changes to manufacturing, evaluate hardware for design improvements, and engage suppliers for the IBM Z mainframe.

Secondary responsibilities will be to develop mainframe system design and cabling to enable worldwide fulfilment and shipping to external clients.
