Mechanical Designer

About the role

The Mechanical Designer on the New Product Development team plays a key role in transforming initial concepts into fully realized product designs. You will work closely with engineers and cross-functional partners to take new products from idea through prototype, pilot, and into production. You create accurate, well-organized 2D and 3D models and documentation that align with industry standards and internal requirements, directly influencing product performance, manufacturability, cost, and overall project success.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with the Lead Project Engineer and a team of engineers to translate product requirements into prototype and pilot designs.
• Utilize 3D CAD software, such as PTC Creo, to develop robust digital models that support faster and more efficient development cycles.
• Create detailed 3D models and engineering drawings based on concepts, sketches, or legacy designs with a strong focus on manufacturability and production feasibility.
• Design sheet metal components using both 2D and 3D tools while ensuring appropriate tolerances and fit are achieved.
• Recommend efficient assembly and fabrication methods that optimize designs for cost, quality, and ease of production.
• Support technical and design reviews by preparing, presenting, or assisting in the presentation of design models and documentation in alignment with internal processes.
• Prepare complete documentation packages for release to manufacturing, including drawings, bills of materials (BOMs),
