Job summary

Hadrian is seeking a skilled CAD Modeler to build manufacturing-ready 3D models and 2D drawings for naval and aerospace parts, starting from customer documents. You will own each part from initial model through release and subsequent changes, collaborating with design, manufacturing, and quality teams.

Expertise with NX (or CATIA/Creo/SolidWorks) and a strong command of GD&T per ASME Y14.5 is required. You will manage M-states, release workflows in PLM, and translate complex drawings into

Qualifications

• 3+ years building production CAD models and drawings for hardware a factory made.
• Expert in one parametric 3D CAD application with models others can modify.
• Experience building 3D models from complex 2D drawings with no existing model.
• Reads GD&T per ASME Y14.5, weld and NDT symbols per AWS A2.4, and drawings to ASME Y14.100.
• Experience releasing parts and controlling changes in a PLM system.
• Asks when a drawing cannot answer a question instead of guessing.
• Sets their own release schedule across many parts and switches priorities quickly.

Responsibilities

• Build manufacturing-ready 3D models from naval prints, aerospace drawings, partial models, and other customer documents, matching the customer’s definition feature for feature.
• Make the 2D drawings the factory runs on, from your models or the customer’s.
• Build the models and drawings for each M-state of a part.
• Work out conflicting or unclear views against the rest of the drawing.
• Keep PLM data correct and structured, and send your parts through the release workflow.
• Carry each customer change through the customer geometry and every related M-state across the part family.
• Build models that tooling, programming, and inspection teams can use as a base.
• Work with manufacturing teams and turn around the model and drawing changes they need.
