Develop and maintain mechanical designs, including SolidWorks models, drawings, and related documentation
Ensure designs meet performance, quality, safety, and manufacturability standards prior to release to production
Apply and follow established CAD standards, part libraries, revision control practices, and documentation requirements
Collaborate with Production, Quality, and Supply Chain to ensure designs are practical, cost-effective, and aligned with manufacturing capabilities
Support Project Managers by providing design input, technical feedback, and timeline estimates throughout the project lifecycle
Participate in design reviews and incorporate feedback to improve design quality and consistency
Work with internal sales teams or customers, when needed, to clarify requirements and design intent
Identify and resolve design issues, including tolerance, fit, and manufacturability concerns
Contribute to the improvement of design workflows, checklists, and design-for-manufacturability standards
Drive continuous improvement by suggesting enhancements to design processes, tools, and documentation practices
Explore and apply new SolidWorks features, tools, or design methods to improve efficiency and quality
Support new and existing product development efforts with innovative mechanical design solutions

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or a related engineering field, or equivalent hands-on experience
Strong proficiency in SolidWorks and mechanical design best practices
Solid understanding of manufacturing processes, design-for-manufacturability, and revision control
Experience working cross-functionally with production, quality, supply chain, and project teams
