Mechanical CAD Data Management & PDM Consultant

Integrity PCB Design Inc

Phoenix, AZ

Full-time

Posted 8 days ago

Job description

Description

This is a contractor position only and must have your own software and PC!  


This position focuses on Mechanical CAD data management, library architecture, and SolidWorks PDM implementation. It is not a mechanical product design role.


Seeking an experienced Mechanical CAD Data Management Consultant to establish a scalable mechanical CAD library and data-management infrastructure in preparation for a SolidWorks PDM migration.

This is not a mechanical product design position. We are looking for someone with hands-on experience organizing, restructuring, and administering mechanical CAD data, assemblies, libraries, and PDM environments.

The ideal candidate has successfully developed CAD standards, part classification systems, and migration strategies that improve long-term maintainability and engineering efficiency.


Primary Responsibilities
  • Assess existing mechanical CAD files, assemblies, and library structure. 
  • Review current part classifications, assembly hierarchy, and design workflows. 
  • Develop logical part-numbering and classification standards for: 
    • Components 
    • Assemblies 
    • Subassemblies 
    • CAD reference objects 
  • Define best practices for organizing mechanical CAD data. 
  • Map legacy CAD data into the new organizational structure. 
  • Assist with planning and executing migration into SolidWorks PDM. 
  • Resolve legacy assembly reference and broken-link issues. 
  • Recommend processes for long-term CAD library governance and maintenance. 
  • Collaborate with engineering and ERP stakeholders to improve data consistency. 
Ideal Candidate

We're seeking a consultant who has built and organized engineering CAD infrastructure, not simply created mechanical designs. This individual understands how to structure engineering data so it remains scalable, searchable, maintainable, and ready for future product development.


Requirements

Required Qualifications
  • 7+ years of SolidWorks mechanical CAD experience. 
  • Demonstrated experience implementing or administering SolidWorks PDM. 
  • Strong understanding of mechanical CAD data organization and library management. 
  • Experience developing CAD standards, naming conventions, and part-numbering systems. 
  • Experience restructuring large mechanical CAD libraries. 
  • Ability to troubleshoot broken file references and assembly relationships. 
  • Familiarity with engineering document control and configuration management. 
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills. 
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience integrating CAD data with ERP or PLM systems. 
  • Experience leading CAD migration or data-cleanup initiatives. 
  • Background supporting electronics or embedded hardware development environments. 
  • Experience developing engineering documentation standards and workflows.
