Job Description

Systems Design Engineer

Location : Plymouth, MN (On-Site)

Type : Full-time

Are you passionate about bringing ideas to life through smart engineering and customer collaboration? Our client is looking for a Systems Design Engineer to join their team and help design and deliver custom power units and manifold systems that make a real impact in the fluid power industry.

This role is perfect for someone who loves problem-solving, enjoys working directly with customers, and wants to see their designs move from concept to production on the shop floor.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll wear multiple hats—designer, problem-solver, and technical partner. You’ll :

• Turn concepts into reality by quoting and designing hydraulic power units, manifolds, and assemblies based on customer needs.
• Collaborate with customers and sales teams —joining technical sales calls, helping define exact requirements, and providing creative solutions.
• Engineer with precision, from prototyping and documenting design changes to developing bills of materials and preparing sketches / drawings.
• Support production, working hand-in-hand with shop technicians to ensure layouts are correct before assembly.
• Keep communication flowing by updating customers and suppliers on orders, quotes, and project progress.
• Drive continuous improvement by re-costing assemblies, refining designs, and ensuring every job meets safety, quality, and performance standards.
