A day in the life at DiMonte Group
You start your morning whiteboarding concepts with a multi‑disciplinary team that thrives on speed, innovation, and measurable results. By mid‑day, you’re in the shop shaping ideas into reality—cutting foam core, machining metal, forming plastic, and even roughing clay or wood—then inspecting, assembling, and debugging your own prototypes. In the afternoon, you’re back at your desk refining a SOLIDWORKS model, running an FEA simulation, dialing in a tolerance stack, and preparing 2D drawings with precise GD&T. Before you wrap, you chart test results in Excel, write a concise test plan, and present design decisions and their impact to teammates and clients.
At DiMonte Group, you’ll touch every stage of product design and development, turning novel concepts into manufacturable, successful products. If balancing creativity with rigorous analysis and shipping practical solutions sounds like you, you’ll feel at home here.
What you’ll do
- Own end‑to‑end mechanical design: concept generation, CAD, FEA simulation, engineering calculations, and detailed drawings.
- Prototype rapidly in the shop—validate, inspect, assemble, and debug your designs using metal, plastic, clay, foam core, and wood.
- Design for manufacturability and assembly; select optimal materials and processes.
- Communicate clearly: sketch in brainstorming, present visually and verbally, and translate tests into graphs, specs, and plans.
- Collaborate seamlessly across disciplines while quickly adopting new technologies and tackling diverse challenges.
Must-have background
- U.S. citizen.
- B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (or closely related field).
- 3–6 years of hands‑on product development experience.
Technical strengths
- Core design fluency: 3D CAD (SOLIDWORKS preferred), FEA simulation, 2D drawings, engineering calculations, tolerance stack‑up analysis.
- Manufacturing know‑how: injection molding, thermoforming, casting, machining, stamping, sheet metal, blow molding, cast urethane, SLA, SLS, FDM.
