Job Description

Our client, a manufacturing company specializing in industrial scrap and waste handling systems, is seeking to hire a Mechanical Designer/Assistant to assist with “all things engineering”. This role will aid in the drafting and design of customized shredders, conveyor systems, trim cutters, and material handling fan systems . These products dispose of paper, foil, light metal, wood pallets, skids, plastic and use a unique patented "Pierce-and-Tear" shredding concept. Waste is then conveyed, through engineered systems, into hoppers or deposited into balers, packed into refuse hoppers or into self-contained energy-generating systems.

This position is ideal for someone at the start of their career who is eager and willing to learn, ready to work in a hands-on manufacturing shop environment, and motivated to grow with the company.
