Mechanical Engineer

This role ensures the accuracy, integrity, and long-term reliability of the company's technical data. The Mechanical Engineer will focus on migrating legacy 2D/3D product information into current CAD and PDM standards, maintaining drawing files and engineering records, and protecting the quality of Bills of Materials across the full product lifecycle. This position plays a critical role in preventing data errors, reducing production disruptions, and supporting efficient new product and sustaining engineering activities.

Key Responsibilities

Legacy CAD Migration & Data Integrity (Primary Focus)

• Convert legacy 2D and 3D models into updated SolidWorks formats aligned with current CAD standards.
• Rebuild, clean, and optimize models, assemblies, and drawings for long-term maintainability.
• Ensure all migrated data meets accuracy, completeness, and revision-control requirements.
• Maintain and organize the CAD database to ensure accessibility, consistency, and traceability.
• Standardize drawing templates, title blocks, notes, and dimensioning practices across product lines.

Engineering Documentation Control

• Maintain drawing files, engineering records, design procedures, and reference documentation.
• Implement updates to engineering documentation as standards evolve.
• Support creation and revision of assembly drawings, exploded views, installation instructions, and technical documentation.
• Prepare, manage, and execute Engineering Change Orders (ECO/ECR/ECN) with full documentation accuracy.

Bill of Materials (BOM) Accuracy & Maintenance (Major Risk Area)

• Build, validate, and maintain Bills of Materials for new and existing products.
• Audit BOMs to ensure alignment with current engineering designs, material specifications, and revision history.
• Identify, correct, and prevent BOM discrepancies that could impact purchasing, manufacturing, or inventory.
• Collaborate with Operations, Supply Chain, and Production to resolve BOM issues promptly.
• Support reconfiguration of BOMs for custom orders and product variations.

Support for Engineering & Production

• Assist engineering teams with updates to existing products and minor design improvements.
• Provide production support through accurate documentation, clear drawings, and timely updates.
• Coordinate with vendors on manufacturability questions and technical discrepancies.

Testing & Product Validation

• Support basic product or materials testing as needed.
• Document results and implement design or documentation changes as required.

Essential Skills

• Advanced proficiency in SolidWorks (parts, assemblies, drawings).
• Strong understanding of CAD standards, modeling best practices, and design documentation.
• Experience with PDM systems for data control and revision management.
• Ability to manage large volumes of data and maintain version accuracy.
• High attention to detail—especially in BOMs, drawing accuracy, and file structures.
• Strong organizational and analytical skills.

Experience & Education

• BSME or equivalent mechanical engineering background.
• Minimum 3–5 years working with CAD data management, drawing control, or product documentation.
• Experience in manufacturing, product development, or sustaining engineering preferred.
• Prior work involving CAD migration or BOM-heavy environments strongly valued.
