What You Bring:

  • 5+ years of 3D parts and assemblies SolidWorks modeling and 2D drafting (CATIA a plus).

  • Proven experience designing or drafting industrial equipment—pumps, motors, or similar assemblies.

  • Extensive hands-on mechanical experience: assembly, testing, prototyping, or troubleshooting machinery.

  • Strong knowledge of mechanical drawings, GD&T, and assembly standards.

  • Ability to produce production-ready part and assembly drawings with precision and clarity.

What You’ll Do:

  • Turn concepts into detailed CAD models and 2D drawings ready for manufacturing.

  • Verify assemblies, define tolerances, and optimize designs for real-world functionality and manufacturability.

  • Support R&D with hands-on product testing, prototyping, and iterative improvements.

  • Maintain organized CAD files and ensure drawings meet company and industry standards.

  • Collaborate with production and procurement to review orders and ensure manufacturability.

Why This Role Matters:
Your hands-on experience will guide design decisions, ensuring our industrial equipment performs reliably in the field. We value people who understand how machines work, not just on paper but in practice.

Ready to design, build, and test real industrial equipment? Apply now and make a tangible impact.
