Job Description

Answer Precision Technologies (APT) designs and builds custom assembly automation systems, precision checking fixtures, and tooling. Our projects are highly engineered, one-off solutions — not catalog machines — and they require designers who enjoy thinking, problem-solving, and taking ownership.


This role is not about following templates. It’s about figuring things out and making good engineering decisions.


The Role

This is a senior, ownership-driven mechanical design role.

You will be responsible for the complete mechanical design of custom automation equipment — from concept through release and build support. You’ll work with minimal hand-holding, collaborate closely with other disciplines, and be trusted to make decisions that affect cost, performance, and schedule.

If you enjoy accountability, autonomy, and solving problems that don’t have obvious answers, you’ll thrive here.
