  • Support the creation of detailed engineering drawings and print packages for released designs
  • Ensure all drawings and documentation meet internal standards and are ready for manufacturing and assembly
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of design processes, tools, and documentation practices
  • What will make you successful:
    • Strong AutoDesk Inventor skills, including 3D modeling and design
    • Strong mechanical design fundamentals, with the ability to take designs from concept through detailed execution

    • Experience with automation tooling or custom machine design in Solid Works, including an understanding of manufacturability and assembly considerations

    • Ability to manage multiple projects or tasks simultaneously while maintaining attention to detail and quality

    • Problem-solving mindset with the ability to troubleshoot design challenges and propose practical solutions

    • Effective communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across engineering, manufacturing, and project teams

    • Self-motivated and able to take ownership of work, driving projects forward with minimal supervision

    • Adaptability and willingness to shift between completing existing designs and supporting new project development
