Job Title:
Mechanical Designer Location:
Wilmington, NC Duration:
5 Months, possible extension Work Hours:
40 hours/week. Flexibility is required, with occasional overtime (10-20 hours per week) during peak project periods.
Job Description: Job Summary:
Client is seeking an experienced Mechanical Designer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will be responsible for creating and refining mechanical equipment designs and layouts using advanced CAD tools, ensuring strict adherence to client's Machine Drafting Standards. Your work will directly contribute to optimizing production systems, resolving design challenges, and delivering innovative solutions. The ideal candidate will have a strong technical background, exceptional problem-solving skills, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop and deliver mechanical equipment designs and layouts using AutoCAD® 2023 and Inventor 2023, ensuring compliance with client's drafting standards. Produce and maintain detailed drawing packages, build packages, machine part lists, illustrations, and equipment specifications for production systems. Assemble comprehensive machine design packages by reviewing and updating existing packages, ensuring accuracy and completeness of documentation. Redesign mechanical components to reduce installation costs, resolve equipment interferences, and correct design deficiencies. Review, redline, and oversee updates to installation documentation and drawings, collaborating with drafting teams to resolve design issues efficiently. Execute design changes to address equipment or process challenges, ensuring all designs meet functional and performance requirements. Perform elementary design calculations (e.g., statics, hydraulics, power transmission) to support both new designs and modifications of existing systems. Collaborate with internal stakeholders and project managers to ensure designs meet project goals and customer expectations. Provide detailed sketches and marked-up drawings to address evolving project needs.
Required Qualifications: Education:
Associate's degree (AAS) in Mechanical Engineering Technology or a Bachelor's degree (BS) in Mechanical Engineering Technology or Mechanical Engineering. Equivalent work experience may be considered in exceptional cases.
Experience:
A minimum of 3-5 years of professional experience in mechanical design, preferably in an industrial or manufacturing setting.
Technical Expertise:
Proficiency with AutoCAD® 2023, Inventor 2023, and related CAD software tools. In-depth understanding of mechanical drive trains, electrical and pneumatic actuators, and system integration. Expertise in preparing complete drawing packages, from assembly to detailed drawings, for industrial equipment. Strong knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) and experience interpreting pneumatic and electrical schematics. Familiarity with manufacturing processes, including machining and fabrication, to ensure efficient and practical designs.
Preferred Qualifications:
Highly motivated and results-oriented professional with excellent organizational skills. Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and adapt to changing project requirements. Comfortable working in small teams and collaborating across departments to meet deadlines. Experience with precision measurement tools (e.g., tape measures, calipers, micrometers).
Work Environment/Conditions: Travel Requirements:
Occasional travel may be required to the Concord Plant or vendor locations to gather equipment-related information; travel is expected to be minimal. On-Site Work: Some time on the production floor may be required gathering information about existing equipment.
