Design the Machines That Build the World
Flexible Part-Time Engineering — Work Around Your Schedule
Winona Van Norman has spent more than 140 years designing and manufacturing precision grinding and machining equipment trusted worldwide for accuracy, reliability, and craftsmanship. As we develop the next generation of machine tools and advanced manufacturing equipment, we're looking for a Mechanical Engineer in the Wichita area to join us on a part-time basis — evenings and weekends, built around your existing schedule.
This is real engineering work: designing the machines that manufacture precision components, not just the components themselves.
What You'll Be Working On
- New machine tool and equipment designs
- Precision mechanical systems and assemblies
- Motion control and automation systems
- Weldments, castings, fabricated structures, and sheet metal design
- Product development from concept through production
- Engineering solutions for complex, high-tolerance manufacturing challenges
Who We're Looking For
- Mechanical Engineer with hands-on design experience
- Proficiency in SolidWorks required
- Proficiency with CAD required
- Background in machine design, automation, manufacturing equipment, heavy machinery, or industrial systems highly desirable
- A creative problem-solver who enjoys turning concepts into practical, working solutions
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on project-based assignments
- Someone who takes pride in precision and engineering craftsmanship
Why Winona Van Norman?
At Winona Van Norman, you'll work on equipment measured in thousandths—and often tenths of a thousandths —of an inch. You'll contribute to products that help manufacturers around the world achieve exceptional accuracy and performance.
Whether you're employed full-time and looking for engaging supplemental work, recently retired, consulting independently, or simply want intellectually rewarding engineering outside a traditional 9-to-5, we'd like to talk. This role is structured around part-time evening and weekend availability, so you can take on meaningful project work without disrupting your primary schedule.
