What is the difference between Foundry Developer vs CAD Developer?

AspectFoundry DeveloperCAD Developer
Required CredentialsTypically requires a degree in metallurgy, materials science, or engineering; certifications in foundry processes are a plusRequires a degree in mechanical engineering, industrial design, or related fields; certifications in CAD software are common
Work EnvironmentWorks in foundries, manufacturing plants, or industrial settings focusing on metal casting and productionWorks in design studios, engineering firms, or manufacturing companies focusing on product design and drafting
Industry UsageUsed mainly in metal casting, manufacturing, and industrial production sectorsUsed across engineering, product design, and manufacturing industries

Foundry Developers focus on metal casting processes and work in industrial environments, while CAD Developers specialize in computer-aided design for product development. Both roles require technical skills but serve different stages of manufacturing and design processes.

What is a foundry developer?

A foundry developer is a software engineer who specializes in developing and maintaining tools and systems used in the semiconductor manufacturing process, such as automation software, data analysis, and equipment control.

Job description

Metal Foundry Engineer
Who We Are
ME Global Inc. is headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, and operates two foundries in North America: Tempe, Arizona, and Duluth, Minnesota. We have been in business for more than 100 years and employ over 1,000 team members across five continents.
We produce high-quality metal castings for grinding media, mill liners, crushing liners, and slag pots using optimized designs and proprietary alloys developed for the global mining, aggregate, and recycling industries. Our products are used by customers in more than 40 countries.
We have strong jobs for strong people. This is your invitation to make your journey part of our journey.
About the Foundry Design Engineer Position
We are seeking a hands-on Metal Foundry Design Engineer to support the design, development, and continuous improvement of cast metal components, tooling, patterns, gating, risering, and manufacturing processes.
This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving real production challenges, collaborating with shop-floor teams, and turning customer requirements into reliable, manufacturable casting solutions. You will work closely with engineering, quality, production, the pattern shop, and customer-facing teams to design castings that meet dimensional, metallurgical, quality, and cost requirements. You will evaluate customer drawings and 3D models, develop foundry-friendly designs, support casting simulations, troubleshoot casting defects, and help improve processes from quotation through production launch.
Key Responsibilities
  • Review customer drawings, specifications, and 3D models to determine casting requirements and manufacturability.
  • Design and improve casting layouts, patterns, core boxes, gating, risering, chills, and related tooling.
  • Use CAD software to create or modify solid models, manufacturing drawings, and tooling concepts.
  • Support solidification and mold-filling simulations to improve casting quality and reduce scrap.
  • Partner with production, quality, and pattern shop teams to troubleshoot defects, dimensional issues, and process concerns.
  • Recommend design changes that improve castability, reduce rework, and support customer performance requirements.
  • Assist with new product launches, sample castings, process documentation, and production standards.
  • Support cost estimating and quoting by providing engineering input on tooling, cores, risers, weights, yields, heat treatment, and finishing requirements.
  • Maintain accurate engineering records, process notes, and product master data.
  • Promote a safe, quality-focused, and continuous improvement culture throughout the foundry.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Materials Science, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field preferred.
  • Experience in a metal foundry, casting operation, pattern shop, tooling environment, or heavy manufacturing setting strongly preferred.
  • Knowledge of sand casting, mold design, cores, gating, risering, shrinkage, solidification, heat treatment, and casting defects.
  • Experience with CAD software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Inventor, Creo, or similar.
  • Experience with casting simulation software such as MAGMASOFT or similar is a plus.
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, GD&T, and customer requirements.
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting, communication, and project management skills.
  • Comfortable working in both office and foundry production environments.
  • Self-motivated, practical, and willing to collaborate directly with operators, supervisors, engineers, and customers.

What's In It For You
  • Competitive market-leading compensation.
  • Quarterly bonus opportunities based on company performance.
  • Comprehensive benefits with low employee costs.
  • Excellent retirement and savings programs with strong company contributions.
  • Work-life balance with 3 weeks of vacation, 11 paid holidays, and 48 hours of paid sick time annually.
  • Opportunities for personal, professional, and financial growth through local and global career paths.
  • Long-term job stability backed by more than 100 years of success in the growing global mining industry.
