Mechanical Design Engineer

Role Responsibilities

• Create and interpret professional engineering drawings, ensuring all relevant details are conveyed for manufacturing
• Translate complex design requirements into clear, manufacturable CAD specifications, with a focus on accuracy and precision
• Produce detailed 2D and 3D models using industry-standard tools (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape, Inventor, Creo, NX) and reference models in FreeCAD
• Apply advanced principles of tolerancing, dimensioning, and Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) to all deliverables
• Document and communicate manufacturing processes and design intent in clear, well-structured written and verbal formats
• Review, critique, and improve existing engineering documentation to enhance clarity and manufacturability
• Contribute insights on design for manufacture (DFM) and help optimize parts for real-world production scenarios

Good Candidature

• Extensive industry experience in mechanical design, with parts successfully transitioned from concept through to manufacturing
• Expert-level proficiency in CAD software, with demonstrated capability across multiple platforms (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape, Inventor, Creo, NX)
• Solid hands-on knowledge of FreeCAD for interpreting or referencing models
• Strong command of drafting standards, GD&T, tolerancing, and the creation of technical documentation suitable for manufacturing
• Deep understanding of various manufacturing processes, material selection, and DFM best practices
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, able to document decisions and explain engineering concepts clearly
• Experience collaborating on engineering projects remotely and sharing feedback in a constructive, professional manner
