Role Overview:
Location: Remote or Hybrid
Role type: Fixed-term, 1 month
We are seeking a highly skilled CAD Designer with advanced proficiency in Autodesk Fusion 360 and a strong background in mechanical design for product enclosures and electronics integration. The ideal candidate will bring expertise in DFM-ready modeling, complex assemblies, and practical knowledge of integrating electrical and mechanical components in high-performance systems.
Key Responsibilities:
* Design and develop parametric models and assemblies in Autodesk Fusion 360
* Create detailed technical drawings, exploded views, and specifications for manufacturing handoff, ensuring all outputs align with DFM principles
* Implement and maintain version control protocols for collaborative design projects, utilizing Fusion 360 Teams or similar systems
* Integrate PC hardware (e.g., GPU, PSU, motherboards) into enclosure designs, considering airflow, cable routing, and thermal performance
* Embed lighting systems (e.g., LED strips) and plan for camera/sensor placement with accurate field-of-view modeling
* Design structural components including hinges, brackets, locks, and modular systems optimized for tool-less access and serviceability
* Select materials and define tolerances for mixed-material assemblies (e.g., aluminum and steel)
* Develop designs within manufacturing constraints, considering factors like bend radii, K-factors, hole clearances, and CNC/laser cutting limitations
* Translate supplier specifications into usable CAD formats (STEP, DXF) for quoting and production
* Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, product, and fabrication teams to ensure design intent and quality
Qualifications:
* 3+ years professional CAD design experience
* Expert-level proficiency with Autodesk Fusion 360
* Strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles and DFM best practices
* Experience designing products that incorporate electrical systems and components
* Familiarity with fasteners, tolerances, and materials for mixed-structure assemblies
* Knowledge of manufacturing processes including CNC routing, laser cutting, and metal fabrication
* Experience with collaborative version control and file management systems
Desirable Skills:
* Ability to create photorealistic renders using KeyShot or Fusion-native tools
* Exposure to thermal and airflow modeling concepts
* Prior experience in kiosk, trade show, or retail fixture design environments
Why Join Us?
* Lead the experience design strategy for a fast-growing immersive tech company
* Work on high-profile projects with global brands
* Be part of a creative, innovative, and highly skilled team
* Competitive salary and career growth opportunities
