Description

Product Engineer
SALARY - $38.46-48.08/hr (85-100k a year)
Onsite – Glendale, CA | SMP Engineering, Inc

At SMP Engineering, Inc, we create innovative custom machinery for our client and we’re looking for a Product Engineer to help bring the next generation of ideas to life.

If you thrive in NPD (New Product Development), love turning concepts into real-world products, and believe that the best ideas come from iteration (and a little failure), you’ll fit right in with our philosophy: fail often, fail fast—and build something better every time.

What You’ll Do:
As a key contributor in our NPD process, you’ll own the engineering journey from concept through production and continuous improvement. This is a hands-on, collaborative role where design meets manufacturing.
  • Lead and support new product development (NPD) efforts from ideation to launch.
  • Translate concepts into detailed engineering designs using SolidWorks and similar tools.
  • Partner cross-functionally with design, sourcing, and manufacturing teams to ensure feasibility and efficiency.
  • Drive prototyping, testing, and iteration cycles (fail fast, learn faster).
  • Optimize products for cost, durability, manufacturability, and sustainability.
  • Troubleshoot production challenges and continuously improve existing products.

What You Bring:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in Product Engineering / Design Engineering / Product Development Engineering, ideally in an NPD-focused environment.
  • Strong proficiency in 3D CAD tools (SolidWorks preferred).
  • Deep understanding of materials, manufacturing processes, and quality standards.
  • Experience in industrial machinery manufacturing.
  • A problem-solving mindset with the ability to manage multiple projects at once.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills.

What SMP Engineering Offers:
  • Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance, STD insurance, PTO, STO, Paid Holidays.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development.
  • A collaborative and innovative, self-management work environment.
