What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an NX CAD designer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an NX CAD Designer, you need strong proficiency in mechanical design principles, 3D modeling, and a solid educational background in engineering or a related field. Expertise in Siemens NX CAD software, knowledge of PLM systems, and relevant certifications are highly valued. Attention to detail, problem-solving, and effective communication skills set top performers apart in this role. These skills ensure precise, efficient design work and seamless collaboration with engineering and manufacturing teams.

What are the typical collaboration dynamics for an NX CAD design engineer within a project team?

As an NX CAD Design Engineer, you will frequently collaborate with cross-functional teams, including mechanical engineers, manufacturing specialists, and project managers. Your daily responsibilities often involve integrating design feedback, aligning CAD models with engineering requirements, and ensuring manufacturability. Effective communication and regular design reviews are essential, as your work forms the foundation for downstream processes. This collaborative environment helps ensure that the final product meets both functional and production standards.

What is an NX CAD designer?

An NX CAD Designer is a professional who uses Siemens NX, a powerful computer-aided design (CAD) software, to create, modify, and analyze 3D models and engineering drawings. They are responsible for designing parts, assemblies, and complex systems in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing. NX CAD Designers collaborate with engineers and other stakeholders to ensure that product designs meet technical requirements and are manufacturable. Their expertise includes proficiency in NX software, understanding of engineering principles, and attention to detail in creating precise digital models.

What is the difference between Nx Cad Design vs Mechanical Drafter?

AspectNx Cad DesignMechanical Drafter
Required CredentialsCAD software proficiency, technical trainingCAD software proficiency, technical training
Work EnvironmentDesign offices, engineering firmsManufacturing, engineering, design firms
Industry UsageProduct design, engineering projectsMechanical component drawings, assembly diagrams

Job description

A globally leading consumer device company headquartered in Cupertino, CA is seeking a highly motivated NX CAD Modeler with expertise in NXopen (.net/python) to join their Battery Modeling Team. In this role, you will be responsible for developing and iterating detailed 3D models and assemblies of battery packs, modules, enclosures, and associated components using Siemens NX Software as well as develop, manage and upgrade NXopen applications.
Key Responsibilities:

  • Create high-quality 3D models, assemblies, and 2D drawings of battery modules, packs, and enclosures using Siemens NX.
  • Perform tolerance stacking / analysis and well as enable variability studies using parametric models.
  • Build parametric assembly models with assembly constraints to allow scaling.
  • Use tolerance stacking to build a design distribution.
  • Use geometry evaluation tools to perform quality checks and clean up model
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including mechanical design, thermal, electrical, and manufacturing to develop CAD models and assemblies to be used as inputs for other simulations.
  • Ensure models adhere to design standards, GD&T, and best practices for manufacturability and assembly.
  • Maintain model integrity and revision control using PLM systems such as Teamcenter.
  • Upgrade existing NXopen.net applications 
  • Develop new NXOpen applications and Block Styler user interfaces.


Qualifications:

  • Masters degree or equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in 3D modeling with Siemens NX, ideally within the consumer electronics or battery industry.
  • Expertise in parametric design, assembly design and sketching.
  • NXOpen programming expert level skills.
  • Expertise in geometry analysis and cleanup  
  • Experience in battery pack/module CAD design is highly preferred.
  • Solid understanding of mechanical design principles, GD&T, and design for manufacturing (DFM).
  • Proficiency in working within a PLM system (e.g., Teamcenter).
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks and adapt to changing priorities.
  • Expertise in Synchronous modeling tools in NX preferred.
  • Familiarity with FEA and geometry pre-processing for FEA preferred.


Type: Contract
Duration: 3 months with extension
Work Location: Cupertino, CA (onsite)
Pay range: $52.00 - $67.00 ph (DOE)
