Position: Mechanical Engineer Location: Valls At K-LAGAN, we are leaders in strategic technological solutions at an international level. We work on high-impact projects, offering our employees the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally within a dynamic and inclusive culture. If you are passionate about technology and are looking for an environment where you can make a difference, we are looking for you. The Mechanical Engineer (ME) is a key role within the Mechanical Engineering development process, responsible for leading and executing mechanical design activities across assigned projects throughout the full lifecycle, from RFQ/RFI and requirements definition through design release and production support. This role is responsible for defining the mechanical architecture, ensuring compliance with technical requirements, and delivering robust, cost-effective, and manufacturable solutions aligned with project timelines. Main Responsibilities Requirements Engineering • Manage the full mechanical requirements lifecycle., • Define, analyze, and clarify mechanical requirements with stakeholders., • Resolve ambiguities in technical requirements through engineering discussions., • Select appropriate materials and components according to mechanical specifications., • Ensure implementation of customer and internal requirements before each design freeze milestone., • Identify and escalate technical risks to the appropriate stakeholders., • Review systemic technical issues impacting the project. Design & Implementation • Develop mechanical design solutions aligned with requirements, standards, and internal guidelines., • Own and maintain the Mechanical Bill of Materials (BOM)., • Ensure timely delivery of mechanical outputs (BOMs, simulations, documentation, etc.)., • Define and coordinate engineering analyses such as FEA, thermal analysis, and design reviews., • Ensure cost-optimized design and control deviations from target cost., • Support design-to-cost initiatives and contribute to value engineering activities., • Participate in concept and design reviews across development phases (DV, PV, production)., • Collaborate closely with suppliers and system architects to ensure up-to-date technical solutions., • Initiate and participate in technical design reviews with internal teams, suppliers, and customers., • Support DFMEA activities and cross-functional engineering reviews., • Evaluate feasibility of engineering changes and support change management processes., • Contribute to continuous improvement of design guidelines and engineering best practices., • Review and approve technical drawings ensuring consistency and compliance., • Support benchmarking activities and integration of innovative ideas., • Assist in reviewing documentation for production part approval processes (PPAP). Gate Review, Problem Solving & Release • Track and manage open technical issues and ensure proper resolution., • Support problem resolution and root cause analysis activities., • Participate in change management processes (engineering changes, requests, and modifications)., • Ensure mechanical readiness for project gate reviews and releases. Mechanical Verification • Support verification activities including DV/PV testing., • Review and validate test results and engineering reports., • Ensure mitigation of identified design or test failures., • Support prototype evaluation and initial sample reviews., • Contribute to thermal and system-level analysis in collaboration with cross-functional teams. Key Technical Skills • Mechanical design of components and systems., • Materials selection and application in engineering design., • Thermodynamics and heat transfer principles., • Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural validation., • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) understanding for design review., • Prototyping and validation methodologies., • Knowledge of manufacturing processes and industrialization., • Familiarity with lean manufacturing principles., • Understanding of automation and robotics in industrial environments., • Knowledge of automotive or industrial standards (e.g., ISO, IATF, ASPICE, APQP-PPAP)., • Experience with engineering tools for requirements, configuration, and change management. Soft Skills • Strong analytical and critical thinking abilities., • Problem-solving mindset with attention to detail., • Effective communication skills in multidisciplinary environments., • Ability to work in cross-functional and international teams., • Strong time management and ability to work under tight deadlines., • Adaptability to changing project needs and priorities., • Conflict resolution and stakeholder management skills., • Innovative mindset and continuous improvement orientation., • Emotional intelligence and collaborative attitude. Role Assignment This role may be structured in different ways depending on project size: • As a dedicated full-time Mechanical Engineer for large-scale projects., • Combined with other engineering responsibilities in smaller teams., • With delegation of specific responsibilities to function owners in complex programs.
