We’re working with a leading Australian manufacturer that specialises in innovative seeding and tillage equipment used across the country’s agricultural landscape. With continued investment in R&D and a growing engineering team, they’re now seeking a Senior Design Engineer to help deliver new and improved products tailored to local farming conditions.

About the Role

You’ll join a collaborative engineering team focused on full-cycle product development — from concept and prototyping through to testing and final production. Based on-site in Cowra, this is a practical, hands-on role that works closely with fabrication, assembly, and production teams to deliver robust, customer-focused machinery.

• Design new machinery and refine existing models for performance, efficiency and usability;
• Use CAD (SolidWorks or Creo) and FEA tools to drive robust, field-tested designs;
• Liaise with production, marketing and suppliers to ensure smooth product delivery; and
• Occasionally travel to Mannum, SA to collaborate with the wider team.

What We’re Looking For

• Background in agricultural, mechanical or heavy equipment design;
• 5+ years’ experience in machinery design, ideally with agricultural machinery exposure;
• Strong skills in product design, CAD, FEA, and engineering documentation;
• Comfortable working in a regional, on-site environment; and
• A practical mindset and team-first attitude — you're happy to jump into the detail and support others.

Ideal Candidate Backgrounds

• Agricultural equipment manufacturers (tillage, seeding, harvest);
• OEMs in heavy machinery, earthmoving, or construction equipment; and
• Engineers with rural backgrounds or a passion for ag innovation.

What’s on Offer

• Salary up to $150k + Super + Performance Bonus;
• Full-time, permanent role in regional NSW;
• Chance to work in a growing, well-resourced team with real product ownership; and
• Help shape products that directly impact Australian farming communities.
