About this role
Re:Build Manufacturing is seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to join its Tekna subsidiary in Kalamazoo, working on-site in a contract role. You'd be part of a cross-functional team supporting product development across medical devices, consumer goods, industrial equipment, and appliances—moving projects from early-stage concepts through to commercialization. The work involves collaborating with industrial designers, CAD specialists, quality and production engineers to ensure products meet safety, effectiveness, and reliability standards before release.
The role calls for a Bachelor's degree in Engineering (mechanical, electrical, or software focus) and three to five years of design engineering experience. Proficiency with SolidWorks or Creo is required. You'll apply sophisticated engineering techniques to create detailed designs, support consulting and new product development initiatives, and contribute to production problem-solving. This is a fast-paced environment where you're expected to take on responsibility and work independently within a supportive team structure.
Re:Build offers employee ownership stakes in the company and profit-sharing at all levels, positioning this as more than a contract assignment. The company emphasizes growth opportunities and professional development through its broader industrial platform.
