About the Role

Are you a technically minded Mechanical Engineer with a passion for design, engineering and bringing concepts to life? Do you enjoy transforming ideas into accurate, detailed engineering designs and 3D models that support real-world manufacturing, fabrication and construction projects?

WABi Systems Australia is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Mechanical Engineer to join our growing team. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge modular building solutions while working alongside experienced engineers and designers on a diverse range of mechanical and structural projects.

In this hands-on role, you will utilise your SolidWorks expertise to develop, modify and maintain 3D models, assemblies and detailed engineering drawings. You will play an important role in ensuring designs are accurate, practical and suitable for fabrication and manufacture, with a strong focus on design quality, technical documentation and revision control.

Working closely with our engineering and design teams, you will gain exposure to mechanical components, structural steel, fabrication processes and modular construction systems. You will also have the opportunity to see your designs progress from the drawing office through to the workshop floor and final installation.

This is more than just a design role. It's an opportunity to contribute to innovative engineering solutions, develop your technical capabilities and be part of a collaborative team challenging traditional construction methods.

If you are passionate about mechanical engineering, take pride in producing high-quality engineering designs and enjoy seeing your work translated into practical outcomes, we would love to hear from you.
