CAD Design Engineer, Mechanical & Code-First Reverse Engineering

SoftAge Information Technology Limited; Pune District; Sur place; INR 1 200 000 - 1 800 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

SoftAge Information Technology Limited in Pune is seeking an experienced CAD Design Engineer, Mechanical with code-first reverse engineering skills. You will create and refine high-quality CAD models, assemblies and drawings, and help establish robust design workflows for production-ready parts.

The role emphasizes parametric modelling, GD&T and DFM across multiple CAD platforms, and includes Python scripting to support build123d/Cad Query based workflows.

Qualifications

• B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech/Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from Tier 1/Tier2 institute.
• 4+ years of hands-on CAD/mechanical design across multiple platforms.
• Strong command of parametric modelling, assembly design, engineering drawings, GD&T, and DFM.
• Working Python ability with code-first CAD (build123d / Cad Query) or a track record of rapid scripting.

Responsabilités

• Create and review data grounded in real CAD and mechanical design practice, parts, assemblies, drawings, and the reasoning behind them.
• Reverse-engineer geometry from STL/mesh into parametric, code-first CAD (build123d) identifying sketches, features, datums, patterns, and key relationships.
• Evaluate AI-generated design solutions, 3D models, feature trees, mating strategies, drawings and identify failure and quality gaps.
• Decompose complex modelling tasks into structured, step-by-step workflows the model can learn from and be measured against.

Description du poste

Job Title: CAD Design Engineer, Mechanical & Code-First Reverse Engineering

Type: Full-Time

Experience: 4+ years

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced CAD professional with strong expertise in 3D modelling, part and assembly design, and technical drafting. In this role, you will create and refine high-quality CAD models and engineering drawings, develop robust design workflows, and collaborate with engineering teams to deliver accurate, manufacturable, and production-ready designs.

What You'll Do

• Create and review data grounded in real CAD and mechanical design practice, parts, assemblies, drawings, and the reasoning behind them.
• Reverse-engineer geometry: take an STL/mesh with no feature history and reconstruct the design intent as parametric, code-first CAD (build123d), inferring sketches, features, datums, patterns, and key dimensional relationships.
• Evaluate AI-generated design solutions, 3D models, feature trees, mating strategies, drawings, and pin down failure cases, edge cases, and quality gaps.
• Decompose complex modelling and verification tasks into structured, step-by-step workflows the model can learn from and be measured against.

Domain Responsibilities

• Build and assess parametric models, assemblies, and detailed2D drawings across machined, sheet-metal, cast/moulded, and weldment parts.
• Judge design intent, constraints, and robustness, modelling approach.
• Apply and check GD&T, tolerancing, and design-for-manufacturing across the full product design lifecycle (concept → detailing → design review → handoff).
• Validate code-first reconstructions against source geometry via deviation and dimensional-accuracy checks.

Requirements

Must Have

• B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech/Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering (or closely related) from a Tier 1/Tier2 institute (IIT, NIT, BITS, IIIT, DTU/NSUT, or equivalent).
• 4+ years of hands-on CAD/mechanical design with breadth across multiple platforms (Autodesk Fusion, SolidWorks, Creo, NX, CATIA, or Inventor), multiple part types, and the full design workflow.
• Strong command of parametric modelling, assembly design, engineering drawings, GD&T, and DFM.
• Working Python ability and genuine comfort with code-first CAD (build123d / Cad Query), or a clear track record of picking up scripting fast.

Good to Have

• Mesh processing (trimesh, Open3D, numpy-stl) and familiarity with OpenCascade/OCCT.
• Exposure to adjacent disciplines, surfacing, simulation-driven design, generative/topology optimization, or CAM handoff.
• PLM/PDM and configuration management.
