Key responsibilities
Design conveyor and material handling systems (belt, roller, chain, sortation systems)
Deliver full lifecycle engineering from concept design through to installation and commissioning
Perform mechanical design calculations (load, speed, torque, throughput, drive selection)
Work closely with electrical, controls, and automation engineers to integrate full systems
Attend client meetings, site reviews, and technical design workshops
Support fabrication, installation, testing, and troubleshooting on-site
Ensure all designs meet safety, compliance, and performance standards (AS/NZS & international standards)
Contribute to continuous improvement in system design and efficiency
About you
5+ years' experience in mechanical design engineering (automation/conveyors ideal)
Full-time permanent role but would also consider Contract Casuals.
Strong experience designing conveyor systems or material handling equipment
Exposure to e-commerce logistics, warehousing, or distribution automation
Proven Proficiency in Autodesk Inventor (or similar 3D CAD tools) is a MUST
Solid understanding of mechanical design principles, fabrication, and assembly
Experience with commissioning, installation, or on-site troubleshooting
Ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines (mechanical, electrical, controls)
Strong communication skills and project coordination ability
Open to travel interstate, with rare international travel required
