Design Release Engineer

The Design Release Engineer supports a team of Design Engineers by creating, updating, and releasing engineering drawings and related documentation for electromechanical products. This role focuses on high-volume drawing generation, engineering change implementation, revision management, and CAD support across multiple projects. The position increases overall engineering throughput by taking ownership of drawing-intensive work so Design Engineers can concentrate on design development and technical problem solving., * Create and release new engineering drawings in accordance with established standards and procedures.

• Update and revise existing engineering drawings to reflect design changes, corrections, and improvements.
• Apply GD&T and established drawing standards consistently to all released documentation.
• Create detailed 2D drawings and perform associated 3D CAD modeling work to support product development.
• Generate complete drawing packages for electromechanical products, ensuring accuracy and completeness.
• Support engineering change implementation by updating drawings and documentation in line with revision control processes.
• Perform drawing work for wiring harnesses and flexible wiring assemblies, ensuring clear and accurate documentation.
• Develop drawings for bus bars, sheet metal components, and large mechanical structures.
• Work within a PLM environment to manage drawing releases, revisions, and version control for multiple projects.
• Collaborate closely with Design Engineers to understand requirements, design intent, and necessary documentation updates.
• Proactively communicate with engineers to obtain missing or unclear information, ensuring continuous progress and productivity.
• Support multiple Design Engineers simultaneously by prioritizing tasks and managing drawing workloads efficiently.
• Ensure all documentation aligns with engineering standards, configuration management practices, and project timelines., This role operates in a high-volume drawing and documentation environment, where the primary focus is on the accurate execution and release of engineering documentation rather than ownership of full product design. The position involves a combination of 2D drafting and 3D CAD work using professional CAD and PLM tools. The Design Release Engineer supports approximately 20 or more Design Engineers across multiple projects, working in a fast-paced setting that emphasizes precision, consistency, and timely release of drawings and revisions., Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): We may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support parts of our hiring process, including sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates. AI helps assess applications and qualifications, but final decisions are made by our hiring team. By applying, you acknowledge and agree that your application may be reviewed using AI tools.
