Mechanical Designer

Job Description

Job Description

Want your designs to become the backbone of critical industrial and technology infrastructure? We’re looking for a detail-driven Mechanical Designer to join a focused engineering team in Houston and take ownership of design packages for complex, high-visibility projects, including data center infrastructure.

What you’ll do

• Build detailed 3D models and mechanical designs in SolidWorks, Inventor, or Creo from engineering concepts and specifications
• Produce fabrication and assembly drawings that apply GD&T and follow ASME standards
• Design the structural layout of frames, supports, and mechanical components for industrial applications
• Own drawing revision control and make sure every change is tracked, approved, and communicated
• Create and maintain BOMs, part lists, and the engineering documentation that manufacturing and installation depend on
• Work with engineers to solve design issues and optimize components and system performance
• Check drawings for accuracy, completeness, and compliance before release
• Present models and drawings in design reviews and turn the feedback into updated packages

What you bring

• Proven experience as a Mechanical Designer or Mechanical Drafter in an industrial or engineering environment
• Strong 3D CAD skills in SolidWorks, Inventor, or Creo
• Hands-on experience with GD&T and ASME drawing standards
• Experience managing drawing revisions and engineering documentation in a structured system
• Solid understanding of mechanical components, assemblies, and structural design principles
• Ability to turn specifications, calculations, and layouts into precise, build-ready drawings
• Sharp attention to detail and the ability to juggle multiple projects under tight deadlines
• Clear communication with engineers, project managers, and fabrication teams
• Associate’s degree or technical diploma in Mechanical Design, Drafting, Mechanical Engineering Technology, or a related field (a BS in Mechanical Engineering is a plus but not required with strong experience)

Bonus points

• Data center design experience (equipment layouts, structural supports, cooling systems)
• PDM/PLM experience (SolidWorks PDM, Vault, Windchill, or similar)
• Knowledge of machining, welding, and sheet metal fabrication and how each affects design
• Background in oil & gas, energy, or process equipment design
• Ability to run basic engineering checks or calculations
• CAD certification (CSWA/CSWP, Autodesk, PTC) or GD&T/ASME training

Why join

• High-impact work on technically demanding infrastructure projects
• Real ownership of design packages from concept to release
• A collaborative engineering team that moves fast
