Acron Polymer Products is an established manufacturing company with over 11 years of experience. We design and manufacture consumer products, with a strong focus on silicone and related manufacturing technologies.

We are looking for a  Senior 3D CAD Designer – Product Development  who is fast, technically strong, comfortable working independently, and enjoys turning physical products and ideas into accurate, manufacturable 3D designs.

This is not just a CAD operator role. We are looking for someone who understands  shape, surfaces, manufacturing and product design .

What you will work on A large part of the role involves  reverse engineering and developing consumer products .
Examples of work include:
Receiving an imported consumer product and accurately recreating it in 3D for local manufacturing
Designing silicone kitchenware, household products and other consumer products
Creating complex curved and organic surfaces from physical samples or reference designs
Modifying existing products to improve manufacturability or functionality
Designing moulds and tooling for silicone products — training will be provided where required
Designing jigs, fixtures and simple production aids for use inside our factory
Creating prototypes on our resin 3D printers to physically verify designs before tooling

Key responsibilities  Create accurate 3D product models
Reverse engineer products from physical samples
Create 2D manufacturing drawings with dimensions and tolerances
Maintain drawing revisions and CAD documentation
Work closely with the Product Head, tooling team and factory
Operate and manage resin 3D printers for prototyping
Design jigs and fixtures for internal manufacturing requirements
Understand measurements from physical components using vernier calipers, radius gauges, fillet gauges and similar instruments
Convert requirements into finished designs quickly, without needing extensive step-by-step guidance

What we are looking for You should have:
Around  4–5 years of professional CAD/design experience
Exceptional candidates with less experience but strong demonstrated ability will also be considered
Strong 3D surface modelling skills , especially curved and organic forms
Strong reverse-engineering ability
Good understanding of dimensions, tolerances and manufacturing drawings
Ability to understand a brief quickly and translate it into a high-quality model
A practical product-design mindset
Ability to work independently and manage multiple design requirements
Fusion 360 is our preferred software.
However, if you are highly proficient in software such as Rhino, Blender or another professional 3D modelling/CAD platform , we are open to discussing this. You should either know Fusion 360 or be willing to learn it.

Preferred background We would especially like to meet candidates who have experience in:
Consumer product design
Plastic product design
Silicone or rubber products
Injection moulding or compression moulding
Tooling or mould design
Product development
Reverse engineering
A  

B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering  is preferred, although candidates from a strong  Product Design  background will also be considered.

Product thinking is a bonus Initially, your focus will be on developing and indigenising products that are currently imported.
However, if you are someone who also enjoys researching products, identifying opportunities and developing  new, commercially relevant product ideas , there will be plenty of opportunity to grow into this area.
We are happy to provide training and manufacturing exposure to help the right designer develop…
