• Develop 2D/3D plant floor layouts with cobots, conveyors, fixtures, safety fencing and workstations (layout design).
• Proficiency in 3D CAD software (SolidWorks, CATIA, NX, Creo, AutoCAD) for drawing creation.
• EOAT design: design grippers, vacuum tooling and fixtures for cobot end-effectors.
• Drafting: create detailed 2D drawings from 3D CAD models and ensure they follow standards.
• Release and manage drawing revisions through PLM/PDM systems.
• GD&T: apply symbols and callouts per ASME Y14.5 / ISO 1101.
• Review supplier drawings for GD&T correctness and conformance.
• Support tolerance allocation discussions with design and manufacturing teams.
• Cross-Functional Support with design, manufacturing and quality teams to reflect design intent.
• Knowledge of engineering drawing standards, tolerancing practices and datum structures.
• Ability to read and interpret complex assembly drawings.
• Experience with tolerance stack-up analysis (preferred).
• Excellent interpersonal skills to navigate a large organization and communicate technical concepts.

Responsibilities

• Layout Design: Develop 2D/3D plant floor layouts integrating cobots, conveyors, fixtures, safety fencing and operator workstations.
• Strong proficiency in 3D CAD software (SolidWorks, CATIA, NX, Creo, AutoCAD) for drawing creation.
• EOAT (End-of-Arm Tooling) Design: Design custom grippers, vacuum tooling and fixtures for cobot/robot end-effectors.
• Drafting: Create detailed 2D engineering drawings (part drawings, assembly drawings, sub-assembly drawings) from 3D CAD models.
• Release and manage drawing revisions through PLM/PDM systems (Teamcenter, AWC, NX, etc.).
• GD&T: Apply GD&T symbols and callouts per ASME Y14.5 / ISO 1101 standards.
• Review supplier/vendor drawings for GD&T correctness and compliance with design intent.
• Support tolerance allocation discussions with design and manufacturing teams to balance cost vs. precision.
• Cross-Functional Support: Work closely with design engineers, manufacturing engineers and quality teams to ensure drawings reflect accurate design intent.
