## Description

We are seeking a Hardware Designer II to support the design, development, documentation, and release of mechanical components and assemblies used in complex equipment systems. This role is responsible for creating detailed CAD models, production drawings, engineering documentation, and Bills of Materials (BOMs) while supporting the full product development lifecycle from concept through manufacturing.

The ideal candidate will have strong mechanical design experience, advanced CAD skills (particularly Siemens NX), and experience supporting manufacturing through engineering change processes.
Key Responsibilities

 * Design and develop mechanical components, assemblies, and sub-systems for product development and manufacturing support.
 * Create and maintain detailed 3D CAD models, assemblies, and production drawings.
 * Generate and manage Bills of Materials (BOMs) and engineering documentation using Engineering Change Management processes.
 * Develop and maintain large, complex CAD assemblies and multi-CAD product layouts.
 * Create 3D routing designs for electrical and pneumatic harnesses.
 * Support design reviews and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure manufacturable and cost-effective designs.
 * Design sheet metal, machined, fabricated, welded, and cast components.
 * Interpret engineering specifications, manufacturing requirements, and design standards.
 * Support additive manufacturing (3D printing), rapid prototyping, and advanced manufacturing initiatives as needed.
 * Participate in continuous improvement projects focused on product performance, quality, manufacturability, and cost reduction.
 * Collaborate with Product Engineering, Manufacturing, Program Management, Field Service, and Supply Chain teams throughout the design lifecycle.
 * Develop test methods, support inspections, and assist with failure analysis and root cause investigations when required.
