Machine Designers

Job Responsibilities:

Vertical Forestry is working to create products that are natural and intuitive to use within our target markets.  The design of forestry equipment requires great technical engineering skills, but because our customers interact directly with the natural world, there is a high demand for engineers with an intuitive grasp of forestry and arboricultural applications.  You’ll know if we are talking to you!

What You'll Do:

  • Model machine components in SolidWorks
  • Calculate and model loading conditions and use FEA to study different loading conditions
  • Work with other engineers to focus on specific subsystems and select components for those systems.
  • Understand the terrain and conditions present in the jobsite and work to maximize the efficiency of the product for those conditions
  • Follow an iterative design process for product development in which production costs also play a part in design
  • Create final shop drawings for production.

Must Have:

  • At least 5 years’ experience in equipment design
  • 5 years engineering experience
  • Strong attention to detail
  • At least 5 years of experience in Forestry or Arboriculture
  • Strong interest in helping others
  • Ability to communicate effectively
