Work is performed in collaboration with and under the technical direction of mechanical engineers and project technical leads.
Responsibilities - Create and maintain SolidWorks parts, assemblies, layouts, engineering drawings, bills of materials, and controlled design records in PDM or PTC Windchill.
- Translate requirements, engineering direction, sketches, and concepts into practical, manufacturable mechanical designs.
- Develop and document components and assemblies for injection-molded plastics, machined parts, sheet metal, electronic packaging, cable routing, and related mechanical systems.
- Apply drafting standards and GD&T to produce clear, inspectable, and configuration-controlled product definition.
- Support concept development, packaging and interface studies, tolerance evaluations, manufacturability reviews, and incorporation of approved engineering-analysis results.
- Identify and communicate design, assembly, tooling, manufacturing, serviceability, and documentation concerns; participate in design reviews and implement approved changes.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to support prototypes, testing, design refinement, quality documentation, schedules, and project-status communication.

- Experience in conceptualizing design requirements and being able to transform requirements into a feasible design based on both verbal and visual information under moderate supervision
- Proficiency in SolidWorks, including complex parts, assemblies, configurations, and engineering drawings
- Familiarity with manufacturing techniques e.g. plastic part design, machined parts, sheet metal, packaging of electronics/cables, etc., for products such as automotive, consumer, and medical devices
- Experience applying drawing standards, dimensional tolerancing, revision control, and configuration practices to released product documentation
Preferred Qualifications - Familiarity with PDM or PTC Windchill vaults
- Working knowledge of GD&T per ASME Y14.5.
- Plastic injection molding and plastic part design
- Hands-on general lab skills e.g. building and testing prototypes
- Familiarity with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing per ASME Y14.5
Travel Requirements: Limited travel up to 10% annually
Citizenship: U.S. Citizen or Existing Work Authorization
