CAD Mechanical Engineer — Precision Tooling & Electro‑Mechanical Equipment

What if your next model became the machine that powers an entire production line?

At Overton Industries, we fuse advanced engineering with craftsmanship to deliver precision tooling, custom machines, and automation to the automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors. We’re looking for a designer who can turn requirements into reality—especially in tube‑forming—and keep production humming through clear documentation, robust testing, and continuous improvement.

Meeting with stakeholders to review prints and specs. Sketching multiple concepts for a tube‑forming solution. Building out a clean, detailed 3D model—then translating it into component, assembly, and process drawings. You create the BOM, select materials and components, and integrate hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and electro‑mechanical devices. You define test methods, verify builds, document everything from setup sheets to dimensional reports, and train technicians on operation.

Along the way, you support the shop floor, tackle troubleshooting, uphold regulatory and industry requirements, and keep projects on track with teams and customers.

• Interpret drawings/specifications and engineer solutions for tube‑forming and custom machines.
• Contribute to estimating and help set cost targets for designs.
• Develop concept designs for tube‑forming and material handling applications.
• Produce complete 3D models for tools, dies, machines, and automated equipment.

• Build bills of materials; source materials, components, and assemblies.
• Apply hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and electro‑mechanical devices within designs.
• Assist in creating manufacturing processes for fabrication, build, and assembly.
• Design testing methods; test finished products; validate fabrication, assembly, and installation.
• Generate thorough documentation: process prints, setup sheets, fabrication prints, operation manuals, dimensional reports, etc.
• Respond to shop and internal stakeholder questions; provide practical support.
• Ensure compliance with government regulations and industry guidelines.
• Train technicians on new tooling and machine operation.
• Pursue continuing education and stay current with industry advances.
• Participate in project tracking meetings, design reviews, and customer status/project meetings.
