Job Description

Our client, an organization specializes in custom-designed solutions across construction, fabrication, and engineered products. They are seeking a Design Engineer to join the growing engineering team and support end-to-end project execution—from concept development and CAD modeling through fabrication support, installation guidance, and customer interaction. This role offers a blend of technical design, hands-on manufacturing collaboration, and direct customer engagement.

Key Responsibilities

Design & Engineering

• Develop detailed 2D and 3D CAD drawings , models, and technical specifications for custom construction and fabrication projects.
• Translate customer concepts, architectural drawings, and engineering requirements into accurate design packages.
• Ensure all designs meet structural, code, and manufacturing requirements.
• Perform engineering calculations, material analysis, and feasibility assessments as needed.

Project Support & Coordination

• Collaborate closely with project managers, fabrication teams, and field crews to ensure design intent is accurately executed.
• Participate in design reviews, troubleshoot issues, and adjust drawings to accommodate site conditions or changes in scope.
• Support creation of manufacturing routings, BOMs, cut lists, and assembly instructions.

Fabrication & Manufacturing Interface

• Work directly with in-house fabrication teams to optimize manufacturability and reduce production bottlenecks.
• Provide shop-floor support, including clarifying design details, resolving engineering questions, and validating prototypes.
• Evaluate materials, fabrication processes, and vendor capabilities to ensure efficiency and quality.

Customer & Field Support

• Engage with customers to understand requirements, present design concepts, and incorporate feedback.
• Provide technical guidance during installation or field construction activities as needed.
• Respond to customer inquiries related to design changes, product functionality, or technical troubleshooting.

Qualifications
