About the Role

You'll turn pump concepts into manufacturable, serviceable designs. The role centers on 3D modeling, detailing, and complete drawing packages (GA, cross-sections, assemblies, service drawings) aligned with our Design Department structure.

Key Responsibilities

- Create accurate 3D models of components and full pump assemblies (PP/PVDF/PFA/PE-UHMW parts, metal fitments, fasteners, seals, bearings, bases).
- Produce complete 2D manufacturing drawings with dimensions, tolerances (GD&T), surface finishes, and machining notes.
- Prepare GA (General Arrangement) drawings, cross-sections, exploded/assembly drawings, and service/maintenance drawings with BoM callouts.
- Generate and maintain BOMs and part codes aligned with internal standards (ISO-style coding, rev control).
- Apply DFM/DFA principles; incorporate standard norms (ISO 2858, 9906 2B—where applicable).
- Collaborate with Product Development, Manufacturing Design, Documentation & Standards, and Test & Validation teams for releases, proto builds, and ECR/ECO changes.
- Support tolerance stack-ups, fits & clearances for rotating components; ensure interchangeability across variants.
- Participate in design reviews, QAP/test readiness, and respond to NCR/field feedback with quick design updates.
- Maintain data integrity in PLM/ERP (revisioning, drawing registers, article codes).

Must-Have Qualifications

- Diploma/BE/ME in Mechanical/Production/Industrial Engineering (or equivalent).
- 2–6 years of relevant CAD experience (exceptional freshers with strong portfolios may be considered).
- Proficiency in SolidWorks.
- Strong command of GD&T, limits & fits, fasteners, bearings, seals, O-rings, and fabrication/machining processes.
- Experience preparing clear, shop-ready drawings and service manuals/illustrations.

-

Good to Have

- Experience in centrifugal/chemical process pumps, impeller/volute parts, bases, and alignments.
- Exposure to plastics/non-metallic MOC (PP, PVDF, PFA, PE-UHMW) and corrosion-resistant design.
- Familiarity with CFD/FEA interfaces (providing geometry, reading reports).
- Basic knowledge of ISO 9001 documentation, QAPs, and test standards (ISO 9906).

Tools & Platforms

- SolidWorks / Inventor, AutoCAD
- PDM/PLM (e.g., SolidWorks PDM)
- MS Office/Google Workspace; ERP/MRP for BoM & routing (nice to have)

Soft Skills

- Detail-oriented, disciplined revision control.
- Clear technical communication; clean drawing annotation and conventions.
- Team player across design → manufacturing → testing → service.

Reporting & Interfaces

- Reports to: Head – Design & R&D
- Works with: Product Development Engineers, Manufacturing Design Engineers, Documentation & Standards Engineer, Test & Validation Engineer, and Production/QA teams.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

- Drawing first-time-right (FTR) ≥ 95%
- On-time release rate ≥ 95% vs. project plan
- Change turnaround time for ECR/ECO within agreed SLA
- Shop/Service defect tickets attributable to drawings ≤ target
- BOM accuracy and revision discipline (audit score)

What We Offer

- Impactful role in a fast-scaling engineering org
- Exposure to complete product lifecycle from concept to field service
- Merit-based growth and learning opportunities
