CAD Designer

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled and innovative CAD Designer to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for creating detailed 2D and 3D CAD models, technical drawings, and schematics that support the design and development of mechanical systems and products. Your expertise will help translate conceptual ideas into precise, manufacturable designs, ensuring compliance with industry standards and client specifications. This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to complex projects across various engineering disciplines, utilizing cutting-edge CAD software to bring ideas to life.

Responsibilities

• Develop detailed mechanical drawings, schematics, and system layouts using CAD software such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, Revit, or similar tools.
• Create accurate 3D models for product design, assembly simulations, and system visualization employing software like SolidWorks, Creo, Autodesk Inventor, or Pro/ENGINEER.
• Collaborate with engineers and project teams to interpret design requirements and produce comprehensive CAD documentation aligned with ASME codes & standards.
• Generate piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), schematics, and building information modeling (BIM) models for construction and manufacturing purposes.
• Conduct design reviews, perform finite element analysis (FEA), and ensure mechanical integrity through GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing) practices.
• Maintain organized CAD files within PDM (Product Data Management) systems and ensure version control throughout project lifecycles.
• Support technical writing efforts by preparing detailed reports, assembly instructions, and system design documentation.

Skills

• Proficiency in CAD software such as AutoCAD, Bluebeam, NavisWorks, Revit, MicroStation, SolidWorks, Creo, Autodesk Inventor, or Pro/ENGINEER.
• Strong mechanical drafting skills combined with experience in 2D CAD drafting and 3D modeling for product design.
• Knowledge of mechanical engineering principles including system design, piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), schematics, and construction documentation.
• Familiarity with GD&T standards and ASME codes & standards for mechanical components.
• Experience with building information modeling (BIM) tools and construction experience is a plus.
• Ability to perform FEA analysis to evaluate mechanical performance under various conditions.
• Excellent technical writing skills for creating clear documentation and reports.
• Understanding of PDM software systems for efficient data management.
• Mechanical knowledge combined with skills in CAD documentation, assembly processes, and system integration.
