Looking for a new career opportunity?

CrimsonXT is hiring a Lead Mechanical Design Engineer, who will be responsible for overseeing the preparation, coordination, and management of all production engineering documentation required for the manufacturing of custom and standard air handling units.

What’s involved:

This role combines hands-on product design, cross-functional engineering leadership, and global collaboration, with a clear path to building and leading a design engineering team. The successful candidate will act as the technical bridge between North America and TICA engineering/manufacturing teams, ensuring designs are optimized for performance, manufacturability, cost, and compliance with regional standards.

You will:

• Lead the mechanical design and manufacturing of HVAC products for the North American market.
• Develop and maintain design standards, best practices, and modular product architectures to enable scalability and repeatability.
• Act as the primary technical interface with TICA engineering teams in China, ensuring alignment on design intent, capabilities, and manufacturing constraints.
• Support technology transfer and product adaptation between global platforms and North American requirements.
• Lead technical review of project specifications, consultant drawings, and customer requirements.
• Partner with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Quality to ensure designs are buildable, cost-effective, and aligned with production capabilities.
• Stay current on evolving HVAC regulations and integrate them into product design proactively.
• Implement structured problem-solving methodologies (e.g., 8D) to resolve design and production issues.

What we are looking for:

• Ability to travel 25% of the role
• A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
• 10+ years of mechanical design engineering experience
• 5+ years in HVAC systems, preferably AHUs or refrigeration
• Experience working with global engineering/manufacturing teams strongly preferred
• Prior leadership or mentoring experience is an asset (formal or informal)
• Experience with PLM/PDM systems (e.g., Autodesk Vault) and ERP systems (e.g., Business Central)
