- Design mechanical structures, frames, enclosures, mechanisms, fixtures, and prototypes.
- Modify existing designs based on testing, customer requirements, and manufacturing feedback.
- Perform design reviews and identify potential design and manufacturing issues.
- 3D Modelling & CAD Create accurate 3D models, assemblies, exploded views, and manufacturing drawings.
- Work with CAD software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, CATIA, Creo, Fusion 360, or similar platforms.
- Apply appropriate GD&T;, tolerances, fits, and assembly constraints.
- Maintain proper revision control and documentation of design files.
- Model Making & Prototyping Convert CAD concepts into physical prototypes, working models, demonstration models, and functional mechanical models.
- Select appropriate materials and fabrication techniques for prototype development.
- Work with materials such as MDF, acrylic, plywood, plastics, aluminum, mild steel, foam, 3D-printed components,



and other engineering materials.
- Participate in fabrication, cutting, drilling, machining, assembly, bonding, and finishing activities.
- Use 3D printing, laser cutting, CNC machining, and conventional workshop tools where applicable.
- Assemble and test prototypes to verify functionality and design performance.
- Identify prototype failures and implement design improvements.
- Testing & Development Conduct functional and dimensional testing of prototypes.
- Analyze test results and recommend design modifications.
- Support product development from concept → CAD model → prototype → testing → final design.
- Prepare technical documentation, BOMs, drawings, and prototype reports.
- Required Technical Skills Strong knowledge of mechanical engineering design principles.
- Good understanding of engineering drawing and GD&T;.
- Knowledge of mechanical components, fasteners, bearings, shafts, gears, springs, couplings, and mechanisms.
- Understanding of materials and manufacturing processes.
- Knowledge of tolerances, fits, surface finish, and machining processes.
- Basic knowledge of strength of materials and engineering mechanics.
- Hands-on knowledge of prototype and model fabrication.
- Ability to read and interpret technical drawings.

Software Essential:

- AutoCAD
- Any one 3D CAD package such as SolidWorks / Creo / CATIA / Fusion 360

Preferred:

- ANSYS or other FEA software
- SolidWorks Simulation
- KeyShot or similar rendering software
- 3D printing/CAD slicing software




- MS Excel and technical documentation tools
- Educational Qualification: Diploma / B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering
- Candidates with backgrounds in Production, Mechatronics, Automobile, or related engineering disciplines may also be considered.
- Experience 0–3 years of experience in mechanical design, CAD modelling, prototyping, fabrication, or model making.
- Freshers with strong CAD projects, prototype development, engineering models, or hands-on workshop experience may also apply.
- Desired Personal SkillsStrong problem-solving and analytical ability.
- Good visualization and conceptualization skills.
- Creative approach toward mechanical model development.
- Strong attention to dimensions and technical details.
- Good hands-on fabrication skills.
- Ability to work independently as well as in a team.
- Willingness to learn new CAD, manufacturing, and prototyping technologies.
- Positive communication and technical documentation skills.
- Key Performance Areas (KPIs)Accuracy and quality of mechanical designs.
- Timely completion of CAD models and engineering drawings.
- Prototype/model development efficiency.
- Design accuracy and manufacturability.
- Number and quality of design improvements.
- Prototype testing and validation performance.
- Compliance with design standards and documentation requirements.

Typical Work Process: Concept Development → Preliminary Design → 3D CAD Modelling → Engineering Analysis → 2D Drawing → Material Selection → Prototype/Model Making → Assembly → Testing → Design Modification → Final Product

Employment Type: Full-Time

Work Environment: The position involves a combination of CAD/design-office work and hands-on workshop/prototyping activities. The candidate should be comfortable working with both computer-based design tools and physical model-making equipment.
