RESPONSIBILITIES
Develop 3D models and 2D drawings using CAD tools, ensuring accuracy and manufacturability.
Apply GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) to control critical dimensions and guarantee functional fit.
Translate engineering concepts and requirements into clear technical documentation.
Review designs for compliance with standards, tolerances, and best practices in mechanical engineering.
Collaborate with product engineers, analysts, and manufacturing teams to resolve design challenges.
Maintain CAD libraries, templates, and drawing standards to streamline workflows.
Support prototype builds and provide design updates based on test and validation results.
Prepare technical packages for suppliers and ensure alignment with production capabilities.
Collaborate with hardware, firmware, quality, and manufacturing teams to align technical decisions with product reliability and compliance.
Deliver clear reports and presentations summarizing risks, mitigation plans, and their impact on product design and lifecycle.
