Are you a creative problem‑solver with a passion for turning sketches into functional hardware? Our fully remote engineering studio is expanding, and we need a Mechanical Designer who can deliver high‑quality 3D models, detailed drawings, and prototype guidance without ever leaving the house. If you thrive in a digital‑first environment and love collaborating across time zones, read on.

Salary Range

Estimated compensation: $55,000 – $75,000 USD per year, based on experience, skill set, and market benchmarks.

About the Role

As a Remote Mechanical Designer, you will be the bridge between concept engineers and manufacturing partners. Your day‑to‑day responsibilities include:

• Developing 3D solid models using SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, or Fusion 360.
• Producing detailed 2D drawings, Bill of Materials (BOM), and GD&T annotations for CNC machining, injection molding, and sheet‑metal fabrication.
• Collaborating with product managers, electrical engineers, and industrial designers through video calls, Slack, and shared PLM tools.
• Running design‑for‑manufacturability (DFM) and design‑for‑assembly (DFA) analyses to reduce cost and lead‑time.
• Creating rapid‑prototype parts via 3D printing and coordinating with external vendors for low‑volume production.
• Maintaining version control and ensuring all documentation meets ISO 9001 standards.

Key Requirements

Technical Skills

• 3+ years of professional mechanical design experience.
• Proficiency in at least one major CAD platform (SolidWorks, Inventor, Fusion 360, or CATIA).
• Strong grasp of material properties, tolerancing, and manufacturing processes.
• Experience with FEA or CFD tools is a plus.

Soft Skills & Remote Work Competencies

• Excellent written and verbal communication; ability to convey complex ideas clearly in a virtual setting.
• Self‑motivated with proven time‑management skills and a dedicated home office setup.
• Comfortable collaborating across multiple time zones and using project‑management platforms such as Asana, Jira, or Trello.
• Detail‑oriented mindset with a commitment to delivering error‑free documentation.

Education & Certifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, or a related field.
• Certified SolidWorks Professional (CSWP) or equivalent certification is highly desirable.

What We Offer

• Fully remote flexibility – work from anywhere in the United States.
• Competitive salary with performance‑based bonuses.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance plans with 100% employer contribution.
• 401(k) matching up to 5% of salary.
• Generous paid time off (PTO) and unlimited sick days.
• Professional development stipend for courses, certifications, or conferences.
• State‑of‑the‑art software licenses and a home‑office equipment allowance.
• Inclusive, collaborative culture with weekly virtual coffee chats, hackathons, and team‑building events.

How to Stand Out

We love seeing your work! Include a link to an online portfolio or a PDF showcase of recent projects that demonstrates:

• Complex assemblies you’ve designed from concept to production.
• Clear, production‑ready drawings with GD&T.
• Examples of cost‑saving design improvements or successful prototype iterations.

Our Hiring Process

1. Resume & Portfolio Review – Our talent team matches your experience to the role.
2. Technical Interview – A live CAD challenge and discussion of your design methodology.
3. Culture Fit Call – Meet the team, learn about our remote workflow, and ask questions.
4. Offer & Onboarding – Quick, transparent, and fully virtual.
