Job description

Our client Recruit AI is looking for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer in Karachi

Recruit AI seeks a Senior Design Engineer (Mechanical) to lead the development of mechanical designs with a focus on precision and manufacturability. This role requires expertise in 3D CAD modeling, detailed 2D drafting, and strong knowledge in geometric dimensioning and tolerancing. The engineer will be responsible for transforming product and engineering requirements into accurate, manufacturable designs and drawings, ensuring full compliance with internal and customer standards. The candidate will also oversee a team of 10 designers, providing technical guidance and quality reviews to uphold high standards across all deliverables.

This position demands practical experience in AutoCAD and Pro/ENGINEER (now PTC Creo), strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to coordinate effectively with production, quality, procurement, and maintenance teams. The role emphasizes managing multiple design projects concurrently, maintaining strict document control, and driving continuous improvements through cost reduction and value engineering initiatives. The ideal candidate possesses a mechanical engineering background with a minimum of 3 years hands‑on design experience and demonstrates clear communication skills for cross-functional collaboration.

Responsibilities

• Prepare detailed 2D drawings using AutoCAD, including layouts, assemblies, part drawings, and fabrication documents to support manufacturing.
• Develop precise 3D part and assembly models in Pro/ENGINEER (PTC Creo), generating production-ready drawings that adhere to engineering standards.
• Apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, appropriate fits, and material specifications accurately across all engineering drawings to ensure design functionality and manufacturability.
• Convert conceptual ideas, sketches, and customer inputs into detailed, manufacturable CAD models with clear documentation.
• Create and maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs) consistent with approved designs and manage documentation revisions carefully to preserve data integrity.
• Implement rigorous document control procedures to manage drawings, models, and change requests, communicating updates to all relevant stakeholders effectively.
• Maintain and update design libraries, templates, and standardized drawing practices to ensure uniformity and efficiency in deliverables.
• Collaborate closely with production, quality, procurement, and maintenance teams to resolve design issues, optimize manufacturability, and address queries promptly.
• Lead design improvement initiatives focused on reducing costs, improving quality, and supporting value engineering efforts within the product development process.
• Review and verify designs and drawings produced by junior engineers or draftsmen, ensuring compliance with internal standards and accuracy before release.
• Coordinate the team of 10 design professionals, providing mentorship, managing workloads, setting quality expectations, and fostering professional development.
• Manage multiple simultaneous projects with strict adherence to deadlines, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality engineering outputs.
• Monitor key performance indicators including drawing accuracy, first-time-right rates, design delivery timelines, and reductions in design-related rework or change requests.
