Job Summary:

The

Senior Design Engineer

will be responsible for designing, developing, and optimizing mechanical components and assemblies for packaging machinery. The role demands strong 3D modeling skills, attention to detail in technical drawings, and the ability to collaborate effectively with production, R&D, and procurement teams to ensure accurate and efficient design execution.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Product Design & Development

Create and model

2D and 3D components, sub-assemblies, and full machine assemblies

using SolidWorks. Develop

innovative and practical design solutions

that meet functional, performance, and cost requirements. Ensure all designs adhere to industry standards, safety norms, and company guidelines.

2. Technical Drawings & Detailing

Prepare detailed

manufacturing and assembly drawings

, incorporating correct dimensions, tolerances, materials, and finishes. Release technical drawings for production with complete clarity to minimize rework. Maintain drawing accuracy and consistency across design versions.

3. Design Documentation & BOM Management

Bills of Materials (BOMs)

for all assemblies and components. Ensure all design data and documentation are properly stored and version-controlled. Support procurement and production teams with relevant design documentation.

4. Design Analysis & Validation

Perform basic

design validation, fitment checks, interference detection, and motion studies

using SolidWorks tools. Participate in design reviews to ensure manufacturability, assembly ease, and cost-effectiveness. Incorporate feedback from production and field teams into future design improvements.

5. Revision Control & Coordination

Manage and control

design revisions

in coordination with the production and quality teams. Implement engineering change notes (ECN) and maintain updated design versions in the system. Collaborate closely with

cross-functional teams

(production, R&D, service, purchase) to resolve design or assembly issues.

6. Continuous Improvement & Support

Participate in

value engineering, cost reduction, and design optimization

initiatives. Support in

prototype development, testing, and troubleshooting

during the trial and commissioning phase. Stay updated with new technologies and software tools relevant to mechanical design.

Key Skills & Competencies:
