About Us
Schlam Payload is the global expert in load and haul attachments.
Headquartered in Western Australia, one of the world's most productive mining regions, we design and manufacture the industry's leading mining truck bodies and buckets for hard rock operations.
Backed by unmatched lifecycle support, our focus on innovation, engineering excellence, and quality has made us the partner of choice for many of the world's leading mining companies.
About The Role
Imagine designing some of the largest mining equipment in Australia, then walking through the workshop a few weeks later to see your designs taking shape in steel.
At Schlam, you'll have a rare opportunity to work closely with the end-to-end design and manufacturing process.
One month you're developing a complex dump body design, the next you're watching it being built in our workshop before heading to site and going to work in one of the world's largest mining operations.
As a Mechanical Engineer within our Engineering team, you'll play a key role in designing and maintaining large mining tray and structural product lines.
Working on substantial bodies of work, you'll collaborate with engineering, operations and production teams to create detailed designs and production-ready documentation that keeps our manufacturing teams moving.
This Role Will Suit Someone Who Enjoys
Working on large, technically detailed projects
Developing accurate and robust engineering solutions
Creating and maintaining detailed 3D models, drawings and BOMs
Applying a methodical and structured approach to engineering
Collaborating with internal stakeholders across engineering, operations and manufacturing
Seeing a project through from concept to production
What You'll Bring
Mechanical Engineering degree (preferred) or equivalent experience
Experience in mechanical design and engineering documentation
Strong CAD capability, ideally SolidWorks
Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality
Knowledge of fabrication, welding and heavy industrial equipment
Ability to balance autonomy with collaboration
Why Join Us?
Design equipment used by some of the world's largest mining companies
Work closely with manufacturing and operations teams
Be part of a business where engineering decisions directly influence the finished product
Flexible and supportive team workplace
We welcome applications from engineers of all backgrounds and experiences.
If you're passionate about engineering, enjoy solving complex problems and want to see your designs come to life, we'd love to hear from you.
