  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, or a related field.
  • Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Inventor, AutoCAD) for 3D modeling and 2D drafting.
  • Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, GD&T, and Design for Manufacturability (DFM).
  • Knowledge of various manufacturing processes (e.g., machining, injection molding, sheet metal) and material properties.
  • Experience with prototyping, testing, and validation of designs.

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience with advanced simulation tools (e.g., FEA, CFD).
