Industrial Designer Position
At our company, we are seeking an Industrial Designer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a passion for designing products that must survive the real world.
The successful candidate will be responsible for building 3D CAD models, assemblies and drawings for plastic, metal and jig components. They will also review tooling limits, draft angles, ribs, wall thickness, shrink and all the fun constraints of real manufacturing.
In addition, the Industrial Designer will align enclosure design with IP requirements, gaskets, seals, fasteners and tight tolerances. They will work shoulder-to-shoulder with electronics, firmware and product teams to refine requirements and PCB layouts.
The successful candidate will also prototype quickly through 3D printing or CNC, testing fit and function, and closing gaps before they can become problems. They will prepare fabrication packs, drawings, tolerances, GD&T, BOMs and assembly instructions.
Finally, the Industrial Designer will support pilot builds, gather field feedback, and help solve issues on live hardware.
Responsibilities:
* Building 3D CAD models, assemblies and drawings for plastic, metal and jig components
* Reviewing tooling limits, draft angles, ribs, wall thickness, shrink and all the fun constraints of real manufacturing
* Aligning enclosure design with IP requirements, gaskets, seals, fasteners and tight tolerances
* Working shoulder-to-shoulder with electronics, firmware and product teams to refine requirements and PCB layouts
* Prototyping quickly through 3D printing or CNC, testing fit and function, and closing gaps before they can become problems
* Preparing fabrication packs, drawings, tolerances, GD&T, BOMs and assembly instructions
* Supporting pilot builds, gathering field feedback, and helping solve issues on live hardware
Requirements:
* Degree in Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering or similar
* CAD modelling experience across plastics and metal components
* Exposure to prototyping, tolerance analysis and common production processes
* Understanding of IP-rated enclosure principles
* Strong SolidWorks (or similar) skills; surface and solid modelling
* Knowledge of injection moulding, die casting, sheet metal and machining
* Ability to design for IP ratings, seals and harsh environments
* Understanding of manufacturability, tolerance stacking and production constraints
* Ability to run fast design cycles, test early and refine
* Experience across both low- and high-volume production desirable
* Familiarity with vibration, environmental and ingress testing desirable
What We Offer:
* A great balance of hands-on prototyping and detailed CAD work
* Exposure to volume manufacturing, injection tooling, regulatory testing and offshore suppliers
* A clear growth path into Senior Designer, Manufacturing Engineering or Hardware Lead roles
* A chance to see your designs rolled out nationwide, used by water authorities, and critical infrastructure customers
