3D Modeler

Description We are looking for a technically strong 3D Modeler to support product design and engineering efforts in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This Long-term Contract position is ideal for someone with deep Solid Works expertise and a practical understanding of design for manufacturing, with a focus on precise modeling and production-ready documentation rather than early-stage concept development. The role suits a drafter or design engineer who is comfortable working onsite and collaborating closely with engineering teams to translate technical requirements into accurate 3D models and visual outputs.

Responsibilities:

- Create detailed 3D models and assemblies in Solid Works for components and products intended for manufacturing.

- Produce accurate drawings, specifications, and supporting documentation that align with engineering standards and fabrication needs.

- Refine existing designs to improve manufacturability, dimensional accuracy, and overall technical performance.

- Partner with engineers and cross-functional stakeholders to interpret design inputs and convert them into build-ready models.

- Develop renderings and visual materials to help communicate design intent, structure, and functionality.

- Maintain organized model files, revisions, and design records to support efficient project execution and updates.

- Apply drafting and design engineering principles to ensure models meet technical, quality, and production expectations. Requirements - Proven experience creating complex 3D models and technical drawings in Solid Works.

- Strong knowledge of design for manufacturing principles and production-oriented engineering practices.

- Background in drafting, design engineering, or a related technical discipline.

- Ability to work in a hands-on onsite environment and collaborate effectively with engineering teams.

- Experience with 3D design, rendering, and visualization tools such as 3D Studio Max is preferred.

- Solid understanding of dimensions, tolerances, materials, and documentation required for manufacturing.

- Strong attention to detail with the ability to deliver accurate, technically sound design files. Innovation starts with people.®
