Mechanical Engineer – 3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering

ReLogic Research, Inc. is seeking a self-starting and highly-motivated individual to join our team! ReLogic’s central focus is to continually promote a culture that stimulates personal, professional, and intellectual growth, while developing elegant solutions to tough problems. We encourage teammates to be self-governing based on high standards of professionalism and judgement.

What You’ll Do

This is a hands-on engineering role with a strong design component. You’ll operate and apply advanced 3D scanning systems, produce high-quality CAD models from scan data, and support mechanical design projects from concept through fabrication. Day-to-day work spans digital measurement, reverse engineering, and design of tooling and hardware with direct impact on customer deliverables.

3D Scanning & Optical Metrology

Operate structured-light, laser, and photogrammetry scanners (Smarttech3D, ATOS, Hexagon, Leica) to capture detailed 3D geometry of components and assemblies
Perform Digital Image Correlation (DIC) data capture on hardware and material tests
Conduct dimensional inspections using Control X and GOM Inspect, applying GD&T best practices to verify part conformance

CAD Modeling & Reverse Engineering

Build parametric and surface 3D models in Geomagic Design X and Geomagic Wrap, working from scan data to reconstruct design intent or meet customer specifications
Produce engineering drawings and system schematics from scan-derived models
Collaborate with the design team to validate and refine models for downstream manufacturing use

Mechanical Design & Fabrication Support

Design tooling, fixtures, prototype hardware, and system assemblies — from sketch through CAD to fabricated part
Perform analyses to support and substantiate design approaches
Develop and optimize inspection and scanning workflows tailored to customer hardware and requirements

Qualifications

Education & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical discipline
2–5+ years of experience in mechanical design, metrology, quality inspection, or 3D scanning applications
Background in aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or industrial equipment is a strong plus

Technical Skills — Core

Hands-on experience with 3D scanning technology (structured light, laser scanning, or photogrammetry)
Proficiency with CAD software (SolidWorks preferred; CATIA, NX, or similar also considered)
Solid understanding of GD&T and ability to read and create engineering drawings
Experience with metrology or inspection software (Geomagic, PolyWorks, or similar)

Technical Skills — Nice to Have

Experience with reverse engineering workflows and scan-to-CAD processes
Familiarity with automation or robotic scanning systems
Basic programming or scripting (Python, MATLAB, or similar) for workflow automation

Communication & Collaboration

Self-starter who can manage projects independently and communicate progress clearly
Comfortable working with customers on-site to understand requirements and demonstrate solutions
Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills to solve tough problems
Willingness to travel approximately 25–50% for on-site support, demos, and customer engagement

Why ReLogic

Work on a wide variety of hardware — no two projects look the same
Use industry-leading scanning and metrology equipment from day one
A culture that values engineering, technical leadership, personal judgement, and autonomy
Full benefits, competitive salary, and a collaborative team enviroment that takes the work seriously

In addition to completing the application in BambooHR, please send a brief note about your interest, and any portfolio or previous projects highlighting your capability to hr@relogicresearch.com.

This is a full-time salaried position with full benefits offered. Approximately 25–50% of travel is expected.
