Mechanical Engineering Recruiters and Executive Search

Your mechanical engineering recruitment team

The variety of jobs that require mechanical engineering professionals can make it a challenge for employers to recruit the right people for their opportunities. Mechanical engineering is a very broad field. While most mechanical engineers work in manufacturing, research and development, or at companies that offer engineering services, these versatile individuals are often called on to develop automation systems, design products, develop new technology and tools, and otherwise drive innovation across sectors. The qualifications of a mechanical engineering job will vary just as widely depending on the industry, the projects they’ll work on, and the solutions you need them to deliver.

Luckily, 180 Engineering has had success as a recruiting and executive search firm placing a wide range of mechanical engineers and mechanical engineering managers. Whether you need a Design Engineer to conceptualize new products and components, a Quality Engineer to ensure their safety and performance, or a Director of Engineering with the ability to set strategic goals for your engineering function, our engineering recruiters can deliver talent with the right qualifications for your positions.

John did a great job!
I cannot recommend 180 Engineering—and specifically TJ Gervino—highly enough. TJ went well beyond standard placement work by acting as an active coach and advocate throughout the entire hiring cycle. He kept me updated in real time, broke down the specific focus areas of each interview phase, supplied great preparation assets, and stayed in touch straight through to my first day on the job. If you are looking for a recruiting partner who is reliable, communicative, and invested in your long-term fit, this is the team to trust.
Received excellent feedback from the recruiter every step of the way
