Sr. Product Designer

ABOUT THE POSITION: As a Sr. Product Designer, you will develop complex CAD models and production-ready drawings that support new and existing products. Using Creo and Windchill (or similar PDM), you will take designs from concept through release, applying best practices in surfacing, tolerancing, and manufacturability. You'll collaborate closely with engineering and manufacturing teams to support prototypes, resolve design challenges, and ensure high-quality, production-ready designs. There is also an opportunity to contribute to CAD standards and tools, including CAD administration, for those interested in expanding their technical influence.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE: You're an experienced Product Designer with 5+ years of experience designing components and assemblies, ideally including injection molded or assembled products. Knowledge of electronics packaging and / or lighting technology is a plus! You are proficient in Creo and PDM systems (e.g., Windchill), have exposure to Catia (ideally), and are comfortable taking designs from concept through detailed, production-ready release with a clear understanding of manufacturing considerations. Surfacing experience is also a plus.

You hold a two-year technical degree or bachelor's degree from an accredited technical institution (mechanical design focus preferred.) You collaborate effectively across teams, communicate clearly, and enjoy balancing hands-on design work with mentoring others and supporting CAD standards and processes.

HOW YOU WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE:

You will PERFORM by:

• Executing advanced 3D Modeling using Creo and / or Catia.
• Utilizing best practices in surfacing, molded part design, and design for assembly when developing part and assembly models.
• Using Windchill PDM system to properly manage, organize, and vault design data.
• Creating and delivering concepts, designs, layouts, illustrations, and detailed drawings in accordance with internal and industry best practices, standards, and guidance from Sr. Design Engineers.
• Conducting component and assembly reviews including tolerance studies and communicating risks or potential issues to project stakeholders.
• Generating and verifying accurate BOM's, engineering changes, and GD&T.
• Managing multiple concurrent projects and setting priorities to ensure timely completion of assignments.
• Supporting prototype procurement, Engineering / sample builds, and hands on evaluations.
• Utilizing business system software to locate information, maintain documentation, and execute changes.
• Maintaining reliable operation of all CAD Systems to ensure protection of CAD data.

You will INNOVATE by:

• Collaborating with all internal and external supporting Team members to improve designs, optimize manufacturability, and minimize costs.
• Teaching, coaching, and mentoring team members to elevate the Team's technical capabilities.
• Providing training and support to users on CAD tools, PDM systems, and related software.

You will EXPLORE by:

• Developing, maintaining, and enhancing CAD standards, drawing guidelines, starter models, templates, and standard geometry libraries.
• Coordinating with IT to plan hardware / software upgrades and assisting with implementation.
