Position Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer to lead the design, development, and refinement of mud pumps, positive displacement pumps, frac pumps, and related mechanical equipment. This role is ideal for an engineer with hands-on machine design experience and a strong understanding of pump systems, mechanical integrity, and equipment performance.
The successful candidate will contribute to innovative engineering solutions while ensuring equipment reliability, safety, efficiency, and compliance with applicable industry standards.
Important: Direct experience designing mud pumps, positive displacement pumps, frac pumps, or closely related equipment is required.
Key Responsibilities:
Design, develop, and improve mechanical equipment, pump systems, and related components.
Create detailed engineering drawings, design layouts, and 3D models using CAD software.
Perform stress analysis and finite element analysis (FEA) to evaluate component strength, durability, and reliability.
Conduct tolerance studies and review engineering drawings and technical documentation for accuracy and quality.
Research, evaluate, and specify purchased components based on performance, compatibility, and cost.
Develop test plans and validate component and system performance.
Prepare engineering reports documenting design calculations, analyses, testing, and results.
Interpret P&IDs, electrical schematics, and hydraulic schematics to support equipment design and integration.
Collaborate with manufacturing, engineering, and other cross-functional teams throughout equipment conceptualization, development, and production.
Ensure designs align with applicable engineering standards, safety requirements, and industry specifications.
Stay current with engineering technologies, materials, and design methods to support continuous product improvement.
Required Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering.
At least 3 years of mechanical design engineering experience; 5 or more years preferred.
Required pump design experience involving mud pumps, positive displacement pumps, frac pumps, or closely related equipment.
Demonstrated experience in machine design and mechanical system development.
Proficiency with CAD software such as Creo, Autodesk Inventor, or SolidWorks.
Experience with FEA tools such as ANSYS or SolidWorks Simulation.
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, and electrical and hydraulic schematics.
Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills.
Excellent attention to detail and the ability to collaborate effectively across engineering and manufacturing teams.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience designing equipment for oil and gas, oilfield services, or industrial pumping applications.
Familiarity with hydraulic systems and their design and implementation.
Knowledge of API specifications, particularly API 6A, API 7K, and API 8C.
Experience working in an ISO-certified or API Q1-certified manufacturing environment.
Hands-on mechanical experience, including working with mechanical systems, fabrication, or welding.
