Position: Mechanical Designer (NX)

Mechanical Designer (NX)

Join a high-impact engineering team as a Mechanical Designer (NX), creating precise 3D CAD models and engineering drawings for mechanical and electro-mechanical components and assemblies. You will contribute to the design, test, and development of advanced maritime systems and unmanned underwater vehicles, working in accordance with ASME engineering standards and digital product definition practices. This role is fully on-site and offers the opportunity to collaborate with multi-disciplinary engineers in a state-of-the-art waterfront facility.

Responsibilities

  • Create accurate 3D CAD models and detailed engineering drawings of mechanical and electro-mechanical components and assemblies using Siemens NX and other CAD tools.
  • Develop drawings and documentation in accordance with ASME Y14.100 engineering drawing practices, dimensioning and tolerancing standards, and digital product definition data practices.
  • Review and validate engineering drawings and designs for accuracy, manufacturability, and ease of assembly, ensuring they meet internal standards and customer expectations.
  • Ensure engineering documents are clear, complete, and consistent so that downstream users receive satisfactory and usable documentation.
  • Interface with a multi-disciplined engineering review team to present designs, incorporate feedback, and ensure customer satisfaction with the final design solution.
  • Support continuous improvement of mechanical design processes by identifying opportunities to enhance quality, efficiency, and standardization.
  • Monitor and understand cost and schedule impacts of design decisions, contributing to projects that meet technical requirements within budget and timeline constraints.
  • Apply principles of mechanical and machine design to support the development of complex systems, including components used in vehicles, sonar, radar, and related maritime applications.
  • Collaborate effectively in a team environment, sharing knowledge and coordinating work with other engineers, designers, and stakeholders.
  • Prioritize and manage multiple design tasks simultaneously, maintaining strong attention to detail and organization throughout the design and documentation process.

Essential Skills

  • 3–5 years of relevant mechanical design experience with a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, or 1–2 years of experience with a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering.
  • An additional 4 years of relevant experience in mechanical design in lieu of a degree.
  • 3–5 years of hands-on experience with Siemens NX or Solid Works for mechanical design and 3D modeling.
  • Proficiency in creating 3D CAD models and engineering drawings for mechanical and electro-mechanical components and assemblies.
  • Strong understanding of ASME Y14.100 engineering drawing practices, including dimensioning and tolerancing and digital product definition data practices.
  • Experience with geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) and geometric dimensioning principles applied to mechanical designs.
  • Ability to review, check, and verify CAD models and drawings for accuracy, manufacturability, and assembly considerations.
  • Ability to work fully on-site with no telework option, collaborating in person with engineering and review teams.
  • Ability to understand and monitor project cost and schedule, and to consider these factors in design decisions.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills when managing design files, documentation, and multiple tasks.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience with additional CAD tools such as Creo, AutoCAD, CATIA, and other solid modeling software.
  • Experience or interest in mechanical and machine design, particularly in applications related to vehicles, sonar, radar, and maritime systems.
  • Familiarity with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems such as Teamcenter, Enovia, or Windchill.
  • Experience working as a checker or drafter, reviewing and validating drawings created by other designers.
  • Solid understanding of solid modeling and 3D modeling principles for complex mechanical assemblies.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively in a team environment, contributing ideas and working toward shared design goals.
  • Ability…
