We are seeking a Design Development Engineer to join our team. If you have a strong background in designing steel structures and working with CAD software, we want to hear from you!
Key Responsibilities:
- Technical Design:
- Create detailed technical drawings and 3D models using CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Tekla, etc.).
- Design steel structures, beams, frames, and other components according to project requirements.
- Prepare design layouts and prototypes that meet strength, durability, and aesthetic standards.
- Collaborate with engineers to optimize designs for manufacturability and cost-effectiveness.
- Drafting and Detailing:
- Produce fabrication drawings with accurate dimensions, materials, and welding specifications.
- Provide a bill of materials (BOM) and cutting lists for the fabrication team.
- Detail structural components, joints, and other elements for production.
- Collaboration and Communication:
- Work closely with production, welding, and quality control teams to ensure the designs are feasible and align with manufacturing capabilities.
- Liaise with clients and project managers to understand design needs and make necessary modifications.
- Present design concepts and solutions to stakeholders for feedback and approval.
- Quality and Compliance:
- Ensure that all designs comply with relevant standards and codes (AISC, ASTM, EN standards).
- Review designs to identify and resolve any technical issues.
- Make sure all materials and processes meet safety and quality regulations.
- Project Management Support:
- Help plan production schedules by providing accurate design timelines and material estimates.
- Manage design revisions and document changes to track project progress.
- Provide technical support throughout the project lifecycle, from design to installation.
- Continuous Improvement:
- Stay updated on the latest design techniques, technologies, and fabrication methods.
- Implement design optimizations to reduce waste and manufacturing costs.
Skills and Qualifications:
- Education:
- A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering, Industrial Design, or a related field (preferred).
- Experience:
- At least 3 years of experience designing steel structures or working in metal fabrication, ideally in a manufacturing or fabrication environment.
- Technical Skills:
- Proficiency in CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Tekla, or similar).
- Knowledge of steel fabrication processes (welding, cutting, bending, etc.).
- Strong understanding of structural design principles and mechanical systems.
- Familiarity with industry standards (AISC, EN, ASTM, etc.).
- Soft Skills:
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
- Problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
- Excellent communication skills for effective collaboration and presenting ideas.
- Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
Working Conditions:
- This is a full-time position with standard working hours.
- Some overtime may be required to meet project deadlines.
- The role involves working in both an office and factory setting for site visits or design validation.
Additional Considerations:
- Knowledge of CNC machinery, robotic fabrication, and other advanced manufacturing techniques is a plus.
- Experience with BIM (Building Information Modeling) for construction projects is a plus.
- Familiarity with SAP/STAAD software is also beneficial.
