Mechanical Designer

Role & responsibilities

• Proficiency in SolidWorks CAD, including complex assemblies, sheet metal, and surface modeling.
• Knowledge of CNC machining and CAM-centric design.
• Hands-on proficiency in SolidWorks Simulation and FEA.
• Knowledge of CFD simulation using ANSYS Fluent, SolidWorks Flow Simulation, or equivalent tools is good to have.
• Understanding of GD&T, engineering tolerances, and mechanical fits.
• Knowledge of aerospace materials including aluminium alloys, carbon-fiber composites, engineering plastics, and polymers.
• Experience preparing production-ready drawings and manufacturing documentation.
• Develop 2D engineering drawings and 3D models of mechanical components, assemblies, and equipment.
• Prepare detailed manufacturing drawings, assembly drawings, fabrication drawings, and bills of materials (BOMs).
• Interpret engineering specifications, sketches, customer requirements, and technical standards to develop appropriate design solutions.
• Perform basic engineering calculations, material selection, dimensional calculations, and tolerance analysis as required.
• Ensure designs comply with applicable engineering standards, safety requirements, and company quality procedures.
• Coordinate with production, manufacturing, procurement, quality, and project teams to ensure design feasibility and smooth execution.
• Review existing designs and recommend improvements to enhance product performance, reliability, manufacturability, and cost efficiency.
• Incorporate design modifications based on engineering reviews, production feedback, and customer requirements.
• Support prototype development, testing, troubleshooting, and resolution of design-related issues.
• Maintain accurate design documentation, drawing revisions, engineering records, and technical files.
• Ensure designs follow Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), and standardization principles.
• Assist in resolving technical issues during fabrication, machining, assembly, and installation.
• Meet project schedules and deliver design outputs within agreed timelines.

Preferred candidate profile

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related discipline.
• Previous experience designing UAV structures, robotic platforms, or aerospace components.
• Familiarity with composite manufacturing and vibration isolation.
• Exposure to rapid prototyping and product development cycles.
