Role Summary
We are looking for a Mechanical Engineer with strong hands-on experience in 3D/2D CAD design, GD&T application, plastic component design, tooling knowledge, and packaging design for embedded/electronic products.
Key Responsibilities
• Create and maintain 3D models and 2D manufacturing drawings using NX, CATIA, or Creo
• Apply GD&T principles to ensure design intent, manufacturability, and interchangeability
• Design plastic components (enclosures, housings, brackets) considering mold-flow, draft angles, wall thickness, and material behavior
• Coordinate with tooling/mold vendors on DFM, tool design reviews, and mold trial issue resolution
• Design mechanical packaging/enclosures for embedded electronic products (PCB fit, connector placement, thermal/EMI considerations, ingress protection)
• Prepare BOMs, tolerance stack-up analysis, and design validation documentation
• Collaborate with electronics, firmware, and manufacturing teams for design integration
• Support prototype builds, DVT/PVT testing, and design iterations based on test feedback
Required Skills
• Proficiency in one or more: NX, CATIA, Creo (Siemens NX preferred, others acceptable)
• Strong understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5 or ISO equivalent)
• Experience in plastic part design and injection molding processes
• Knowledge of tooling/mold design fundamentals (gate location, ejector pins, parting lines)
• Experience designing mechanical enclosures/packaging for embedded/electronic products
• Familiarity with tolerance stack-up analysis and DFM/DFA principles
• Working knowledge of materials (engineering plastics, metals) and finishing processes
Preferred / Good to Have
• Experience in automotive or consumer electronics product design
• Exposure to IP-rated enclosure design (ingress protection standards)
• Knowledge of thermal management for electronic enclosures
• Understanding of EMI/EMC shielding considerations in mechanical design
Qualifications
Education B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent)
Experience 3–7 years of relevant experience (adjust based on seniority level)
