Job Description

🚨 We're Hiring: Senior Design Engineer | Portland, OR | Onsite 🚨

⚙️ Industrial Fabrication | 🛳️ Marine & Heavy Steel Projects | 🧠 Hands-On Technical Leadership

Our client is a long-established fabrication and shipbuilding firm based in Portland, Oregon. For over a century, they’ve helped shape the industrial infrastructure of the Pacific Northwest. Privately held and locally owned, they operate with a mission-first culture built on craftsmanship, safety, and teamwork.

With production accelerating and demand growing, they’re adding a Senior Design Engineer to support critical projects—ranging from barges and bridges to complex marine structures. This is a hands-on role with real ownership: you’ll produce drawings, guide design packages, and mentor a skilled team of junior engineers and drafters. You’ll work side by side with shop supervisors and technical leaders to turn engineered ideas into real steel.

💼 What You’ll Do:

  • Develop 3D models, detailed production drawings, and marine/outfitting systems
  • Split your time between technical execution and team guidance
  • Mentor junior design engineers and drafters in design quality and accuracy
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with project managers, shop leads, and engineers
  • Support engineering through concept, detailing, production, and handoff
  • Report to the VP of Engineering and work alongside the Chief Naval Architect

🧠 What You’ll Bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (required)
  • 8+ years of experience in shipbuilding, heavy fabrication, or industrial construction
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD; experience with ShipConstructor, SolidWorks, or Rhino is a plus
  • Strong knowledge of heavy steel structures, marine systems, or mechanical outfitting
  • Experience managing drawing packages and production handoff in shop environments
  • Confidence on the shop floor and comfort working shoulder-to-shoulder with production
  • A leadership mindset grounded in precision, mentorship, and accountability

📍 Location: Portland, OR – 100% onsite

🕒 Schedule: Monday–Friday, day shift

🏗️ Work Environment: High-output industrial fabrication setting

🛡️ Benefits Include:

  • Full Health Coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Paid Time Off
  • Health Savings & Flexible Spending Accounts
  • Life Insurance and Employee Assistance Program
