Junior Design Engineer

About the role

We are looking for a Junior Design Engineer to help transform the AEC design process. This role includes CAD modeling and detailing, parametric design, work instruction creation, modeling strategy development, design for manufacturing and assembly, CAD management, and quality assurance.

Responsibilities

• CAD Modeling and Detailing: Collaborate with architects to engineer design concepts, converting them into high-fidelity 3D CAD models.
• Parametric Design: Collaborate with software developers to set requirements and rulesets for parametrized modeling that can be written into software to automate modeling.
• Work Instruction Creation: Collaborate with operations and build teams to generate the right assets for the operators to build from effectively. Generate details for structural, MEPF and other systems, ensuring compliance with building codes and regulations.
• Modeling Strategy: Develop and implement high-impact decisions for an evolving modeling strategy, adapting to new tools and designs while preserving speed and flexibility, with the ultimate goals of standardization and automation in mind.
• Design for Manufacturing and Assembly: Have a keen understanding of the processes, machines, and people that manufacture and assemble designs. Find opportunities for improving the design to remove parts, simplify materials, and make the resulting product simpler, easier, and faster to assemble.
• CAD Management: Organize and maintain controlled documentation of 3D models and work instruction files, in a highly collaborative cloud environment, to ensure that the latest versions are readily accessible.
• Quality Assurance: Own the modeling and work instructions review process, ensuring 3D models are accurate, complete, and compliant with project standards and regulations. Make revisions as necessary to address design changes or discrepancies.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience as a Design Engineer is required for this role.
• Bachelor's degree in an engineering field is required.
• Background in the construction industry is a plus.
• Proficiency in Onshape (or similar - CATIA, Solidworks, CREO).
• Excellent attention to detail and the ability to produce maintainable 3D models.
• Effective communication skills and the ability to work well both cross-functionally and within a team.
• Problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt to changing project requirements.
• Experience with wood-based construction is a plus.
