Senior Mechanical Designer (Stirred Mills & HPGR)

Sorocaba, Brazil

Hybrid with 1 week annual travel

INTRODUCTION:

Join Metso's Product Engineering team as a Senior Mechanical Designer and help shape the future of mining technology. You'll work with product improvement plus research and development for Stirred Mills & High Pressure Grinding Roll (HPGR) equipment, energy-efficient technologies that's replacing outdated grinding methods worldwide. This role puts you at the forefront of a mining revolution, working with a passionate global team who collaborate daily with colleagues in Brazil, India, China, Australia, and Switzerland.

THE TEAM YOU BELONG TO:

You'll report to the Engineering Manager within the Grinding, Bulk and Pyro Business Line, part of Metso's rapidly growing Services Business Area. Your Stirred Mills & HPGR focused team currently includes engineers based in York, PA, Chile and in Brazil, and this team is part of a larger global product engineering organization.

The team works seamlessly across time zones, with particularly strong collaboration between Santiago and York. We are looking for someone with deep R&D credentials who can bring innovation and technical leadership to the team. The team culture is built on passion for work and result-focused collaboration. This is a growing team in a growing business, where those who join tend to stay long-term because of the exciting technical challenges ahead. The role requires someone who thrives in a distributed, global environment and can build strong relationships across continents while maintaining focus on product innovation.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Your core responsibilities include:

• Develop detailed 3D models and 2D manufacturing drawings for Stirred Mills, HPGR systems, and associated mechanical components.
• Prepare production-ready drawings, assemblies, and bills of materials (BOMs) in accordance with engineering standards.
• Interpret engineering calculations and design concepts into accurate, manufacturable CAD models and drawings.
• Maintain and manage drawing revisions and documentation within the engineering data management system.
• Support product development by assisting engineers in design layout, component detailing, and design improvements.
• Ensure designs comply with industry standards, company design guidelines, and manufacturing constraints.
• Collaborate with manufacturing, procurement, and service teams to resolve design or fabrication issues.
• Review drawings for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with drafting standards.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of drafting practices, CAD libraries, and design documentation processes.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior drafters or designers where needed.

WHO YOU ARE:

Required qualifications:

• Diploma, Associate Degree, or Technical Certification in Mechanical Design, Drafting, or a related field.
• 8+ years of mechanical drafting experience, preferably in heavy equipment, mining, mineral processing, or industrial machinery.
• Strong proficiency in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Inventor, Creo, or similar).
• Solid understanding of mechanical assemblies, fabrication, machining, and manufacturing processes.
• Experience preparing complex assemblies, weldments, and detailed fabrication drawings.
• Familiarity with Stirred Mills, HPGR systems, or other comminution equipment is highly desirable.
• Knowledge of GD&T and engineering drawing standards (ISO / ASME).
• Experience working with PLM or document management systems.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-quality engineering documentation.
• Effective communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional engineering and manufacturing teams.
• Self-motivated with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced engineering environment.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

You'll be joining Metso at an inflection point for the mining industry. Stirred Mills & HPGR technology represents the future of mineral processing as traditional Ball Mills from the 1950s and 1960s no longer meets the world's needs for energy efficiency and sustainability. This is your opportunity to work on cutting-edge engineering challenges that have a real global impact, contributing to more sustainable mining practices while advancing technology that's still in the early stages of its development curve.

The role offers genuine intellectual challenge with opportunities to work on novel engineering problems, and see your innovations implemented in mining operations worldwide. You'll develop expertise in specialized technology while working alongside passionate engineers who share your commitment to technical excellence.

Metso's Services Business Area has experienced aggressive growth in recent years, creating strong career trajectories for talented engineers who join now. The company's global scale (17,000 employees across 51 countries) provides stability and resources, while the specialized nature of the HPGR team ensures your work remains focused and impactful. You'll gain international exposure through regular collaboration with colleagues across multiple continents and quarterly travel to customer sites and technical meetings.

The team values innovation, R&D capability, and engineering fundamentals over narrow specialization, making this an excellent opportunity for accomplished mechanical engineers looking to apply their skills to meaningful, future-oriented challenges in the mining industry.
