Qualifications and responsibilities for this Mechanical Engineer position include:

2–7 years of hands-on refrigeration/HVAC product engineering experience with the ability to design and optimize refrigeration units for certification

Experience supporting the transition to HFC-free refrigerants; experience with flammable refrigerants such as R290 or R600a is a strong plus

Use SolidWorks or comparable design software to support design and development efforts
