About Us
PSI Industries is a high-performance automotive group of companies and divisions built by people who are obsessed with cars — not a dealership, not a chain, not a corporate shop with a logo on a polo shirt. We operate across the full spectrum of performance automotive: from hands-on service, upgrades, ECU calibrations, tuning, and dyno testing, to product design, development, and manufacturing. On the supply side, we source and distribute raw materials and exotic metals — titanium, stainless steel, Inconel, aluminum — and operate CNC machining capabilities that support our own production and partner programs.If you’ve spent more time in a shop than in a classroom and still know how to run CAD, this might be the role for you.
The Role
We’re looking for a Product Design Engineer who lives at the intersection of engineering and fabrication. You’ll work directly on the development of aftermarket performance components — exhaust systems, forced induction parts, and engine components — from initial concept all the way through to a production-ready file that a fabricator can actually use.
This is not a corporate desk job. You will be involved in real builds on real cars, working alongside fabricators and technicians in an active shop environment. This is a hands-on operation, and the person who will thrive here is someone who understands both the engineering side and the shop reality — someone who can scan a component, model it, and hand off a file that works the first time In a real World Application
What You Will Do
· Design exhaust systems, forced induction components, and engine parts with a working understanding of airflow, backpressure, heat management, stress analysis, and structural integrity
· Perform 3D scanning of existing components and vehicles for reverse engineering, fitment verification, and new product development
· Work from scan data to develop production-ready CAD models
Design work holdings and fixtures
Work with Production and operators to proof out concepts
· Solve real-world fitment, performance, and manufacturing challenges — not theoretical ones
· Collaborate closely with fabricators and technicians to make sure every design is actually buildable in-house
· Support the development of new product lines
· Research materials and process solutions to optimize performance, weight, and durability, with a focus on titanium, stainless steel, Inconel, and aluminum
· Contribute to product documentation and specifications
What You Need (Required)
· Solid engineering knowledge of exhaust systems and engine components — you understand airflow, thermal dynamics, backpressure, and how design decisions affect real-world performance
· Hands-on experience with 3D scanning equipment and a working reverse engineering workflow
· Proficiency in 3D CAD software — SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or comparable professional tools
· Ability to design from scan data and produce accurate, clean production files
· A practical, application-first mindset — you think about how something gets made, not just how it looks on screen
What Will Set You Apart (Strong Pluses)
· Welding and/or fabrication experience — you’ve been in a shop, worked with metal, and understand what’s realistic to build
· Background in motorsport, performance tuning, or the automotive aftermarket
· Experience working with exotic materials: titanium, stainless steel, Inconel, aluminum
· Knowledge of forced induction systems — turbocharger kits, intercoolers, charge piping, intake fabrication
· Experience designing for small-batch or custom production runs
· Familiarity with dyno testing and how tuning results feed back into design refinement
Who Thrives Here
This is a small team. There’s no bureaucracy, no layers of approval, and no one holding your hand. The best idea wins, regardless of title. You’ll have direct access to the owner, real cars to work on, and the ability to see your designs go from file to finished product quickly.
If you’re passionate about performance cars, care about the quality of the work you put out, and can move fast without sacrificing accuracy — you’ll fit right in. If you need a structured corporate environment with defined processes and weekly check-ins, this probably isn’t your place.
Car passion is not optional here. The people who do best at PSI are the ones who would be working on cars whether they were getting paid to or not.
