Mechanical Designer; CREO - Remote

Johnson Service Group (JSG) is a professional staffing firm and we are recruiting for an experienced Mechanical Creo Designer for a 12-month contract assignment supporting the Idaho National Laboratory in Idaho Falls,  Status:
Remote with occasional travel to Idaho Falls. Target W2 Pay Rate: $47.00 - $52.00/hour (commensurate with experience) Duration: 12-months Due to Federal DOD regulations: U.S. Citizenship is required.

This position will assess engineering requirements and translate into technical blueprints, drawings, layouts, and simulation models using CAD/CAM/CAE software or applying standard CAD/CAM/CAE techniques to digitize, edit, and revise engineering drawings of components, parts, and assemblies, or to model complex or unusual designs.

• Develop and revise 2D drawings, 3D parametric models, assemblies, and associated documentation from approved engineering inputs.
• Create complete, unambiguous drawings that define geometry, interfaces, materials, finishes, processes, tolerances, inspection requirements, quantities, and assembly relationships needed for fabrication and installation.
• Select and apply functional datum reference frames, feature control frames, material condition modifiers, basic dimensions, and general tolerances in accordance with ASME Y14.5-2009.
• Evaluate tolerance accumulation and fit at part and assembly interfaces; identify conditions that could prevent fabrication, inspection, assembly, interchangeability, or intended operation.
• Apply good parametric modeling practices, including stable design intent, fully constrained sketches, appropriate feature order, controlled references, reusable geometry, and clean assembly structure.
• Check drawings and models for fit, form, function, completeness, consistency, manufacturability, inspectability, and compliance with applicable drafting and engineering standards.
• Verify parts lists, item balloons, quantities, drawing references, zone locations, next-assembly information, notes, weld symbols, revision identifiers, and change markings across the full drawing package.
• Maintain drawing, model, and reference-file integrity through established document control, revision control, configuration management, and records processes.
• Resolve technical comments from engineers, independent checkers, fabricators, inspectors, and formal document change reviews, while preserving an auditable disposition of changes.
• Coordinate with engineers and other disciplines to clarify requirements, document assumptions, identify missing inputs, and recommend practical drawing or modeling solutions.
• Plan assigned work against negotiated priorities and dates; provide credible progress updates and raise scope, resource, or schedule concerns before commitments are missed.
• Support backlog reduction with a constructive, service-oriented approach and mentor drafting personnel in modeling, detailing, checking, and GD&T application when requested.

• Bachelor's degree in engineering or similar technical field with 5+ years’ experience is preferred.
• In lieu of a degree, 10+ years of relative design experience is required.
• Overall specialization in precision mechanical design is required.
• 3+ years of advanced skill with PTC Creo design software is required.
• Familiarity with Windchill Data Management Software or comparable parametric 3D CAD software and Data Manager (PDM or Vault) and working knowledge of AutoCAD is preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to apply ASME Y14.5-2009 to real parts and assemblies, including datum systems, position, profile, orientation, runout, form controls, composite controls, projected tolerance zones, virtual condition, and bonus tolerance.
• Ability to explain why a GD&T scheme protects function and…
