CAD Draftsman - #1095637

Responsibility & Work Scope:

Design, Drafting, Assembly and Part Modelling:

1.        Create 2D and 3D models for mechanical components and assemblies based on project specifications.

2.        Convert conceptual designs or rough sketches into detailed CAD drawings, ensuring accuracy and adherence to industry standards.

3.        Produce manufacturing drawings with dimensions, material specifications, tolerances, and surface finish requirements.

4.        Design and model parts and subassemblies, ensuring proper fit and function within larger systems.

5.        Perform virtual assembly checks to identify any potential interference or design conflicts.

6.        Generate exploded views and animations for assembly instructions and presentations.

 Material and Component Selection, Bill of Materials (BOM) Creation:

1.        Assist in the selection of materials for parts and components, ensuring they meet required specifications and standards.

2.        Incorporate material properties (e.g., strength, flexibility, weight) into designs and make recommendations based on the intended use of the product.

3.        Generate and update Bill of Materials (BOM) for assemblies, listing the required materials, quantities, and specifications for production or manufacturing.

Technical Skills:

1.        Proficiency in SolidWorks (including SolidWorks Designer and SolidWorks Simulation).

2.        Strong understanding of 2D drafting, 3D modeling, and parametric design in SolidWorks.

3.        Experience in assembly design, part modeling, and creating detailed drawings.

4.        Knowledge of sheet metal and weldments designs in SolidWorks is an advantage

5.        Ability to create BOM (Bill of Materials), and understand part tolerances, fits, and clearances.

6.        Good understanding of engineering principles and the ability to apply them to design.

7.        Sound knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).

8.        Knowledge of manufacturing processes (e.g., CNC machining, additive manufacturing) is a plus.

Educational Qualifications:

Minimum ITE or Diploma Technical Certification in CAD drafting, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.

Experience:

1.        At least 2-3 years of experience in CAD drafting or mechanical design.

2.        Experience in designing mechanical parts, assemblies, and manufacturing drawings is required.

3.        Familiarity with other CAD software (e.g., Catia) is a plus, though SolidWorks expertise is the primary requirement.

Soft Skills:

1.        Strong attention to detail and accuracy.

2.        Problem-solving skills with the ability to troubleshoot design and drafting issues.

3.        Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines.

4.        Work closely with engineers, designers, and other stakeholders to ensure design accuracy and functionality.

5.        Communicate any technical issues or design constraints that may arise during the drafting and design process.
