About the job Mechanical Process Design Engineer | Iskandar Puteri

Company Background:
A leading manufacturer of prefabricated modular data center solutions, specialize in the data center and power systems industry. With R&D facilities in Shanghai and high-end manufacturing plants in Shanghai and Malaysia, it delivers innovative solutions for hyperscale data center projects globally. The company is located in Johor Bahru, and the actual working location is subject to the project.

Job Responsibilities:

1. Container Structure Design and Optimization

Responsible for the mechanical structure design of data center power distribution containers (medium and low voltage) and diesel generator containers, including frame structure, equipment layout, lifting and securing, seismic and wind resistance design.
Utilize modular container standards (ISO 668) to ensure the container meets
requirements for transportation, lifting, and rapid deployment.
Optimize structural strength and validate seismic (Level 8), wind resistance (Typhoon Level 14), and waterproof (IP55+) performance through Finite Element Analysis (FEA).

2. Cooling and Noise Reduction Design

Design efficient cooling systems, calculate air intake/exhaust volume (CFM) under full-load diesel generator operation, and optimize airflow layout to prevent heat recirculation.
Use silencers, sound insulation materials, and vibration-damping mounts to ensure exterior noise 85dB(A) at 1 meter from the container.
Design corrosion-resistant and dust-proof structures for high-temperature/high-humidity environments (e.g., desert, coastal areas).

3. Equipment Installation and Maintenance Accessibility

Plan rational layouts for power distribution cabinets, diesel generators, fuel tanks, and cooling systems, ensuring maintenance access paths (600mm) and service space.
Design quick-release panels and sliding equipment bases to facilitate maintenance and component replacement.

4. Material Selection and Manufacturing Process

Select lightweight, high-strength steel to balance structural strength and transportation cost.
Develop anti-corrosion treatment processes (familiar with galvanizing, coating, painting, etc.) to ensure container lifespan 15 years in harsh environments.

5. BIM Collaboration and Production Support

Use SolidWorks/Revit for 3D modeling and generate fabrication drawings (sheet metal bending, welding processes).
Collaborate with electrical and HVAC teams to avoid pipeline interference and ensure integrated design consistency.

6. Scope of Work:

Design Tasks: Analyze customer needs or design institute drawings, perform detailed design, and deliver product drawings that meet functional and production requirements while considering cost reduction and efficiency.
Supplier Development: Conduct technical evaluations for new suppliers to ensure their capability aligns with design requirements.
Supply Chain, Quality, and Production Support: Perform DFX analysis on drawings and BOM to ensure compliance with procurement, quality monitoring, and cost-effective manufacturing needs.
Production Documentation: Prepare and deliver SOPs, MBOMs, DFMEA/PFMEA, and other production support documents.
Process Improvement: Review and improve current production processes and implement technical upgrade plans.
Project Management: Manage assigned projects, control project scope, quality, and cost, and proactively mitigate risks to prevent project failure.
Other Tasks: Support and complete other tasks assigned by leadership proactively and efficiently.

Job Requirements:

1. Hard Skills

Education: Bachelor's degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Design, Power Engineering, or related fields.
Language Proficiency: Proficient in both written and spoken Mandarin, essential for communication with Chinese institutions.
Technical Skills:
- Proficient in sheet metal design; familiar with welding, bending, stamping, cutting, and shaping processes.
- Skilled in SolidWorks/ANSYS/COMSOL for structural simulation and thermal analysis.
- Familiar with container/modular enclosure industry standards (ISO 668, EN 12079).
Industry Experience:
- 3+ years of mechanical design experience in power containers or modular data center equipment.
- Experience designing diesel generator containers or high-power distribution cabinets is preferred.
Design Standards:
- Data Centers: Uptime Tier, GB 50174, TIA-942.
- Diesel Generators: ISO 8528, GB/T 2820, EPA Tier 4.
- Ensure designs comply with ISO, Uptime Tier, TLC, CE, GB 50174, ANSI/TIA-942, UL certifications.
- Address environmental compliance (e.g., China VI/EPA Tier 4 emissions, 85dB noise).

2. Core Competencies

Problem Solving: Able to propose innovative solutions for challenges like heat, noise, and vibration.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with electrical and HVAC engineers to ensure feasibility of integrated systems.
Cost Awareness: Optimize materials and processes while maintaining reliability to reduce production costs.

3. Working Conditions

Travel Requirement: Occasional short-term business trips required to support supplier development, production, and delivery (including global manufacturing sites).

4. Bonus Qualifications

Familiarity with Tier III/IV data center certification (Uptime Institute) requirements for container structures.
Knowledge of mechanical safety design for hydrogen fuel power containers (explosion-proofing, pressure relief).
Holding certifications such as Mechanical Engineer (P.E.) or FEA-related qualifications.

Key Deliverables

3D Models & Drawings
- SolidWorks/Revit files, including complete BOM
Simulation Reports
- Structural (FEA), Thermal (CFD), Noise & Vibration (NVH) analysis
Production Instructions
- Welding cards, anti-corrosion specifications, assembly flowcharts
Test & Validation Plans
- Seismic, waterproof, and wind-load test plans

Industry Trends & Technical Outlook

Lightweight Design: Use of composite materials (e.g., CFRP) to reduce container weight.
Smart Maintenance Ready: Reserve sensor mounting points for temperature, humidity, and vibration monitoring.
Green Energy Compatibility: Design structural reserves for future battery or hydrogen system integration.

Salary Range: RM8500 - RM13000
