Key Responsibilities

• Create detailed 3D models and 2D technical drawings using industry-standard CAD software.
• Perform tolerance analysis and ensure all designs are optimized for manufacturing (DFM) and assembly (DFA).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams via digital platforms to refine product specifications.
• Identify and resolve mechanical design flaws through rigorous simulation and testing protocols.
• Maintain comprehensive documentation for all design iterations and material specifications.
• Stay at the forefront of emerging manufacturing technologies to integrate advanced production methods into designs.

Requirements

We are looking for a professional who blends technical mastery with a proactive, problem-solving mindset. To succeed in this remote position, you must possess:

Technical Expertise

• Proven experience in mechanical design, preferably within the aerospace, automotive, or medical device sectors.
• Expert-level proficiency in SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, or similar high-end CAD software.
• A deep understanding of material properties, manufacturing processes, and GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).
• Experience with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is highly preferred.

Soft Skills & Remote Readiness

• Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts through digital channels.
• A dedicated, professional home office setup with high-speed internet connectivity.
• Strong time-management skills and the ability to meet strict project deadlines without direct supervision.
• A collaborative spirit and a willingness to participate in virtual design reviews and brainstorming sessions.

Salary and Compensation

We value top-tier talent and offer a competitive compensation package that reflects your expertise and the high level of responsibility this role entails.

Estimated Salary Range

$75,000 – $115,000 USD / year
