About AV Industries

AV Industries is a growth-focused manufacturing company delivering high-quality engineered products for diverse sectors. We combine smart design, robust manufacturing, and strict quality systems to bring reliable products to market.

Role Summary

We're looking for a

Mechanical Design Engineer

to own end-to-end product/part design--from concept and 3D modeling to drawings, prototyping, validation, and release to manufacturing. You'll collaborate with production, quality, supply chain, and customers to deliver cost-effective, manufacturable designs on schedule.

Key Responsibilities

Create

3D models

and

fully-defined 2D drawings

(dimensions,

GD&T

, tolerances, surface finish, notes). Perform tolerance stack-ups; ensure fit, form, function, and manufacturability (

DFM/DFA

). Select materials/finishes; define specs for

sheet metal, machining, casting, welding, and injection-molded

parts. Build and maintain

BOMs

, part numbers, revisions; manage

ECR/ECN

through

PDM/PLM

. Run basic

FEA/CAE

checks (stiffness, stress, thermal) and coordinate advanced analysis/testing with the team. Lead

design reviews

, risk assessments (DFMEA), and value engineering/cost-down initiatives. Support

prototype

build, supplier discussions, and manufacturing line bring-up; resolve build issues via RCCA/CAPA. Ensure compliance to

ASME Y14.5

, company standards, and relevant safety/regulatory norms (e.g., CE, RoHS where applicable). Generate technical documentation: assembly instructions, test plans (DVP&R), and release packages. Coordinate with quality for PPAP/FAI/inspection plans; respond to customer/field feedback and drive design updates.
Required Qualifications & Skills

B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering

(or equivalent).

2+ years

hands-on experience in mechanical design/product development in a manufacturing environment. Proficiency in at least one major

CAD

tool:

SolidWorks/CATIA/NX/Creo/Inventor

; working knowledge of

AutoCAD

for layouts. Strong command of

GD&T (ASME Y14.5)

, tolerance stack-ups, and 2D detailing best practices. Practical understanding of

manufacturing processes

(sheet metal, machining, casting, welding, injection molding) and

DFM/DFA

. Experience with

PDM/PLM

(e.g., Teamcenter, Windchill, SolidWorks PDM) for revision control and release. Basics of

FEA/CAE

(e.g., ANSYS, SolidWorks Simulation) for preliminary checks. Familiarity with

materials & heat treatment

, corrosion protection, and surface finishes. Exposure to

APQP/PPAP

,

ECR/ECN

,

BOM

management, and documentation discipline. Strong problem-solving, ownership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Good to Have (Preferred)

Experience with

DFMEA/PFMEA

, DVP&R, and test fixture design. Knowledge of

lean manufacturing

,

value engineering

, and cost modeling. Hands-on with

GD&T-based inspection

, CMM reports, and metrology tools. Supplier/Vendor interaction for manufacturability and cost negotiations. Scripting/automation in CAD or data tools (Excel/Power Query, Python) for productivity.
What We Offer

Competitive salary (commensurate with experience). Statutory benefits including

Provident Fund

,

paid leaves

,

national holidays

, and performance-based incentives. Learning & growth opportunities with real ownership of projects.
How to Apply
