WOODEN CAMERA / CREATIVE SOLUTIONS
SOLIDWORKS PORTFOLIO REQUIREDDesign Engineer Solidworks / Creative Design / Mechanical Engineering
Wooden Camera is growing! We are seeking a creative mechanical designer to join our engineering team! We need someone who has a knack for mechanical engineering and 3D modeling, who can work quickly and efficiently, and has an eye for aesthetically-pleasing designs.
Responsibilities :
Design innovative cinema accessory products with Solidworks3D part modeling to high levels of detail and complex feature treesAssembly modeling with standard and advanced matesIntegration of electronics (printed circuit boards) into mechanical designs, considering wiring, thermals and airflow, conductivity (materials), etc.Create 2D drawings in Solidworks with hole callouts and toleranced dim2.Maintain and improve organization of files in our PDM vault
3.Prototype and iterate designs using 3D printing and supplier samples
4.Assist with assembly team by designing custom tools to aid in assembly of designs
5.Oversee design into production, including communication with suppliers through prototype and sample processes
What we are looking for in a candidate :
Team player with a positive attitude, hustle, and a passion for designing cool stuff.Collaborate through frequent design meetings and one-on-one sessions with design lead and engineering team on project progressWork on several design projects at the same timeDesign input and collaboration with other designers on their projectsWork with the production / assembly teams as needed for engineering support (custom assembly tools, 3D printed jigs, etc.)Willingness to go the extra mile and see a project through to completionTeachability and a spirit to help bring our design team to the next levelConsent to whole-heartedly participate in nerf gun battles if and when the occasion presents itself2.Mechanical aptitude and an obsession with detail.
Innovation of new and improved mechanisms for solving mechanical problemsUnderstanding of applicable materials and their benefits and limitationsUnderstanding of fasteners of all different kindsProficient knowledge of machining and manufacturing processesAttention to machinability (we use 4-axis and 5-axis machines)3.A Creative...
Mindfulness of visual appeal in designsImplementation of 3D tools to increase visual interest and cohesiveness of designs (fillets, chamfers, shapes, cut-outs on large faces, etc.)4.Problem-solver
Ability to work with and modify designs made by other designersAttention to design processes and improvement for faster and better workAttention to correctness and minimization of design oversights and mistakes5.Advanced Solidworks Proficiency
Understanding of how to keep feature trees simple and fully parametricUnderstanding of top-down modeling and when it is appropriateAbility to fix impossibly broken feature trees in SolidworksUnderstanding of how to model in such a way that feature trees are minimal and future-proofExperience with fillets and chamfers, and their role in design aestheticsHole wizard, feature patterns, sketch patternsHeavy integration of construction geometry in sketchesAgreement that the mirror tool is usually a terrible ideaUnderstanding of fully-defined sketches and assembliesFamiliarity with metric and imperial systems of measurementExperience and understanding of Solidworks PDMRequirements
Qualifications :
1.REQUIRED : Portfolio of projects demonstrating detailed 3D modeling capabilities using Solidworks (see woodencamera.com for examples of the level of detail we are looking for). Note : we are interested in Solidworks capabilities, not other CAD programs.
2.Preferred : Experience working in a design team
3.Preferred : Experience with 3D printing
4.Preferred : Certified Solidworks Professional (CSWP) certification
5.Preferred : Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering
