Holley Performance

Boyne City, MI • On-site

Full-time

Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Retirement, PTO

Re-posted 6 days ago


Job description

Overview:

Holley Performance Brands, founded in 1903, is a leader in high-performance automotive aftermarket products. Our portfolio of iconic brands fuels car enthusiasts and racers worldwide—from classic muscle to modern performance and off-road innovation.

At Classic Instruments, we live by a simple philosophy: We build it better—or we don’t build it. Every gauge is proudly designed, assembled, and calibrated in Boyne City, MI. Our products are crafted by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts, and are featured in some of the most respected custom builds in the industry.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Product Designer - CAD - who thrives at the intersection of precision measurement, CAD design, and creativity. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys transforming ideas and customer concepts into detailed, production-ready designs using SOLIDWORKS.

You’ll play a key role in designing custom, one-of-a-kind instrument panels for high-end builds and award-winning vehicles—bringing both function and craftsmanship together.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead measurement and layout of customer-supplied components to inform design direction
  • Create detailed 3D models and drawings in SOLIDWORKS for custom instrument solutions
  • Design components that integrate modern electronics with classic aesthetics
  • Collaborate with internal teams to bring designs from concept through production
  • Support prototype development and refinement of custom builds
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of design processes and standards

(Note: This role includes some hands-on collaboration with production, but is primarily focused on design and engineering.)

What You Bring

  • Experience with SOLIDWORKS (1+ year minimum) and strong CAD fundamentals
  • Ability to translate measurements and concepts into precise, manufacturable designs
  • Strong attention to detail and a passion for craftsmanship
  • Problem-solving mindset with the ability to work on custom, one-off projects
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Team-oriented but comfortable owning individual design work

Nice to Have:

  • Exposure to machining, fabrication, or manufacturing environments
  • Interest in automotive performance, hot rods, or custom builds

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on unique, custom designs—not repetitive production work
  • See your designs come to life in high-profile, award-winning vehicles
  • Be part of a team that blends engineering precision with craftsmanship
  • Join a company with over a century of performance innovation

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs and perform basic physical tasks as needed in a shop environment

Why Holley Is a Great Place to Work

At Holley, we’re more than a performance parts company—we’re a community of enthusiasts, innovators, and problem-solvers. We offer a competitive benefits package and a culture that values both performance and people.

Benefits:

  • Competitive medical, dental, and vision coverage starting day one.
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off and 9 paid holidays
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Company-paid life and short-term disability insurance
  • Employee discounts on Holley Performance Brands products, events, and partnerships
  • Education Assistance program


Holley is an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, marital status, veteran status, disability, or any other legally protected status.
