Design Engineer

Job Title

Design Engineer – SolidWorks

Role Overview

We are looking for a detail-oriented and skilled Design Engineer with advanced expertise in SolidWorks to join our product development team. In this role, you will bridge the gap between physical concepts and digital production & primary focus will be reverse engineering existing components and driving prototype designing from initial concepts through to functional testing.

Key Responsibilities

1. Reverse Engineering

• Deconstruct physical products using 3D scanners, calipers, micrometres, and other metrology tools to create highly accurate digital replicas.
• Translate complex scan data (mesh/point clouds) into fully parametric, editable 3D SolidWorks models.
• Analyze existing designs to identify material types, manufacturing methods, and operational tolerances.

2. Prototype Designing & Development

• Develop 3D models and assemblies from initial hand sketches, design briefs, or conceptual ideas.
• Design for Outstanding Manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA), ensuring prototypes can be scaled for production (injection molding, sheet metal, CNC machining, or 3D printing).
• 3D Modelling & Drafting: Create complex 3D parts, large assemblies, and 2D production/manufacturing drawings using SolidWorks.
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM/DFA): Apply DFM, DFA, and GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) principles to ensure designs are optimized for production.
• Engineering Calculations: Perform strength, fit, and tolerance stack-up analyses.
• Bill of Materials (BOM): Prepare and maintain accurate BOMs, revision logs, and technical documentation.
• Prototyping & Testing: Support physical prototype builds, design validation (DVP), and root-cause analysis for field or test failures.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with manufacturing, quality, procurement, and client teams to resolve shop-floor or design-related queries.
• Engineering Change Management (ECM): Handle ECOs (Engineering Change Orders) and update legacy designs.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Education: Diploma in Mechanical Engineering (or a related engineering field).
• Experience: 2 to 5 years of hands-on experience in mechanical design or special purpose machine (SPM)/component manufacturing.
• Software Proficiency:
• Advanced proficiency in SolidWorks (Part modeling, Assembly, Sheet Metal, Weldments, and Detailing).
• Working knowledge of FEA/Simulation tools (SolidWorks Simulation) is a plus.
• Familiarity with 2D drafting tools like AutoCAD.
• Technical Knowledge:
• Strong grasp of mechanical design principles, material selection, and manufacturing processes (machining, sheet metal, casting, or injection molding).
• Proficiency in GD&T and tolerance analysis.
• Suitable profile can revert to HR in 7397755053
