We are looking for a skilled Mechanical Drafter to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for preparing detailed mechanical drawings, schematics, and technical documentation essential for manufacturing and assembly processes. You will collaborate closely with engineers, designers, and production teams to ensure accuracy, clarity, and compliance with industry standards and specifications. As a Mechanical Drafter, you will utilize computer-aided design (CAD) software to create precise and detailed drawings of mechanical components, assemblies, and systems. Your role will involve interpreting engineering sketches, specifications, and calculations to produce accurate technical drawings. You will also be responsible for revising and updating existing drawings based on feedback from engineers and production personnel. Your attention to detail and strong understanding of mechanical principles will be crucial in ensuring that all drawings meet quality standards and are suitable for manufacturing purposes. You will be expected to maintain organized records of drawings, revisions, and related documentation, ensuring easy retrieval and reference. In addition to technical skills, effective communication and teamwork abilities are essential. You will regularly interact with engineers, project managers, and production staff to clarify requirements, resolve issues, and ensure alignment with project goals and timelines. Your ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously and prioritize effectively will contribute significantly to the success of our projects. The ideal candidate will have a solid background in mechanical drafting, with experience in industries such as manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, or industrial equipment. Familiarity with industry standards, materials, and manufacturing processes is highly desirable. You should be proficient in using CAD software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or Inventor, and possess a strong understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). We offer a dynamic and collaborative work environment where your contributions will directly impact the success of our engineering projects. You will have opportunities for professional growth and development, working alongside experienced engineers and industry professionals. If you are passionate about mechanical drafting and committed to delivering high-quality technical documentation, we encourage you to apply and become a valuable member of our team.
