Job description

Shape Modular Energy Systems from the Ground Up
Location: Franklin, TN (On-Site)
Type: Full-Time
Seniority: Skilled Technical Contributor
Join Enexor BioEnergy
Enexor is a venture-backed climate tech company building distributed systems that convert waste into clean energy and captured carbon. Located just outside Nashville, we're rethinking how the world handles emissions, energy access, and sustainability-one rugged system at a time.
Why This Role Matters
Our systems don't live on a whiteboard. They get built. We need a Mechanical CAD Designer who can own our product models end-to-end: updating and refining Inventor models, managing drawings, and collaborating daily with engineers across mechanical, electrical, and process domains.
You'll be the go-to person for CAD at Enexor, bridging vision and execution with precision and speed.
What You'll Do
  • Create, update, and maintain detailed 3D models and 2D drawings in Autodesk Inventor
  • Support engineering teams with drawing packages for fabrication, assembly, and field deployment
  • Manage part libraries, drawing revisions, BOMs, and design documentation
  • Collaborate across disciplines to ensure full system integration in tight spaces
  • Translate conceptual layouts into manufacturable designs
  • Work directly with engineers and fabricators to resolve design issues in real time

Requirements
What We're Looking For
  • Expert-level Inventor skills (parts, assemblies, and drawings)
  • Strong mechanical drafting and modeling fundamentals
  • Experience working with weldments, sheet metal, and structural framing
  • Ability to interpret and apply GD&T, tolerances, and DFM best practices
  • Detail-oriented with excellent file organization and version control habits
  • Comfortable on the shop floor and working hands-on with prototypes

Bonus Points For:
  • Experience with pressure systems, piping, or modular assemblies
  • Familiarity with electrical routing and harnessing in CAD
  • Prior work in cleantech, energy, or field-deployed hardware

Benefits
Why You'll Love It Here
  • Mission with urgency
  • Flat org, fast decisions
  • Equity upside in a growing climate tech startup
  • Hands-on, real-world product work
Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive salary + equity opportunities
  • 401(k) and QSEHRA health stipend
  • Paid vacation and holidays
