Mechanical Designer I

The Mechanical Designer I supports engineering activities by creating and updating mechanical models and drawings based on redlines and established design direction. This role produces complete mechanical design packages with a moderate level of customization, supports multiple low-complexity projects, and applies intermediate proficiency in Autodesk Inventor while continuing to develop technical independence and design judgment. Responsibilities/Job Duties Create and update 3D models and 2D drawings from redlines and marked-up documentation. Produce complete mechanical design packages containing up to 50% custom assemblies. Manage and execute work for up to three (3) concurrent low-custom projects. Maintain drafting accuracy resulting in fewer than three (3) redline iterations on average due to drafting errors. Apply established drafting standards, templates, and best practices. Incorporate feedback from engineers/senior designers to improve design quality and efficiency. Ensure deliverables are accurate, complete, and ready for review or release. Qualifications Intermediate proficiency in Autodesk Inventor. Basic understanding of mechanical drafting standards and documentation practices. Ability to work on multiple projects while meeting quality and schedule expectations. Strong attention to detail and willingness to learn. Effective communication skills and ability to accept technical feedback.
