  • Translate product requirements and design standards into reliable CAD models, configuration logic, bills of material, and drawing outputs.
  • Support the engineering release of new products, product enhancements, and custom solutions.
  • Implement engineering changes across models, assemblies, drawings, bills of material, and configuration tools.
  • Maintain organized engineering data, product documentation, revision information, and design standards.

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Design, Engineering Technology, or equivalent experience.
  • 2-5 years of experience with SolidWorks or another parametric CAD platform.
  • Experience creating manufacturing drawings and assemblies.
  • Strong understanding of parametric modeling principles.
  • Excellent analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work across functions.
  • Eagerness to learn new engineering and automation tools.
  • Familiarity with bills of material, manufacturing processes, tolerances, and engineering change practices.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel, including formulas, data organization, and lookup functions.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with DriveWorks.
  • Experience with configurable or engineer-to-order products.
  • Experience with SolidWorks PDM or similar product data management software.
  • Knowledge of bills of material and manufacturing processes.
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
  • Experience working in a manufacturing, industrial equipment, data center, or mission-critical environment.
