You’ll be responsible for delivering high-quality mechanical and structural design solutions, CAD models, and detailed engineering drawings to support advanced nuclear technology projects.

    Key Responsibilities:

    + Develop 3D CAD models of conceptual and detailed mechanical designs, with a focus on future scalability and system integration.

    + Maintain and manage large, complex assembly models to support multidisciplinary performance analyses.

    + Create engineering drawings in compliance with ASME Y14.1 and Y14.5 standards.

    + Perform design and drawing checks to ensure accuracy and adherence to drafting standards.

    + Revise and update existing CAD models and drawings based on engineering feedback and design changes.

    + Ensure accurate documentation and version control within a product data management (PDM) system.

    + Define and implement modeling structures for complex mechanical systems.

    + Review and suggest improvements to design processes and group standards.

    Required Qualifications:

    + Minimum of 7 years of mechanical/structural CAD design experience; SolidWorks strongly preferred.

    + Strong knowledge of ASME Y14.5 Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).

    + Demonstrated experience with Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA).

    + Mechanical/machine design experience; background in nuclear fuel handling or similar highly regulated industries is a plus.

    + Proficiency in using PDM systems.

    + Detail-oriented, organized, and capable of managing concurrent tasks independently.

    + Strong written and verbal communication skills.

    + Creative problem solver with strong analytical skills.

    + Experience in nuclear design is preferred, but not required.

    Work Requirements:

    + Remote work environment; must be able to sit or stand for extended periods and perform computer-based tasks for >8 hrs/day.

    + Occasional lifting of up to 20 lbs.

    + Minimal travel (0–5%).

     

    This is a great opportunity for experienced mechanical design professionals looking to contribute to cutting-edge nuclear technology development while enjoying the flexibility of a remote, contract-based role.
