  • Develop and modify complex designs, ensuring accuracy, functionality, and adherence to industry standards.

Drafting and Documentation:

  • Generate detailed technical drawings, including dimensions, tolerances, and materials, for use in manufacturing and production processes.
  • Collaborate with engineers and other stakeholders to clarify design intent and incorporate necessary changes into documentation.

Design Optimization:

  • Analyze designs for potential improvements in terms of efficiency, manufacturability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Provide input on design changes that optimize performance and functionality while adhering to project objectives.

Cross-functional Collaboration:

  • Work closely with multidisciplinary teams, including engineers, product managers, and manufacturing personnel, to ensure seamless integration of design concepts and project requirements.
  • Participate in design reviews and provide valuable insights to improve designs and resolve challenges.

Quality Control:

  • Perform rigorous checks on designs, models, and drawings to maintain accuracy, consistency, and compliance with industry standards.
  • Identify and rectify discrepancies or errors in designs to ensure high-quality deliverables.

Project Management:

  • Manage multiple design projects concurrently, prioritize tasks, and meet project deadlines.
  • Communicate progress, updates, and potential roadblocks to project managers and team members.

Qualifications:

  • Proficiency in SolidWorks software with a demonstrated ability to create intricate 2D and 3D designs and assemblies.
