Symmetrio is recruiting a SolidWorks Drafter / CAD Designer for our customer, a global conglomerate in the medical device space. This individual will play a critical role within the Mechanical Engineering and Product Development teams, supporting the design and documentation of electromechanical and precision-engineered systems used in clinical and imaging environments.

This position is responsible for the creation, refinement, and maintenance of detailed 3D models and 2D drawings that directly support product development and manufacturing. The focus will be on translating engineering inputs into accurate, manufacturable documentation, applying GD&T standards, supporting prototyping and build activities, and enabling efficient new product introduction.

This is an onsite position based in Melbourne, FL, offering a pay range of $35–$42 per hour. Relocation assistance may be available for the right candidate.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain 3D CAD models and 2D drawings in SolidWorks for new and existing products

• Generate manufacturing deliverables (PDFs, DXF, STEP/IGES) for internal teams and external suppliers
• Support prototype builds and production efforts with exploded views, cross-sections, and assembly documentation
• Review and update drawings based on engineering change orders (ECOs/ECRs)
• Interface with suppliers and fabrication partners to clarify drawing details and improve manufacturability
• Help maintain drawing standards, templates, and revision control processes

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in mechanical drafting/design using SolidWorks within a manufacturing environment
• Proven experience converting legacy documentation into production-ready CAD models and drawings
• Strong understanding of:
• GD&T (ASME Y14.5)
• Mechanical drawing standards (ASME Y14.x)

• Ability to produce clear, detailed, and manufacturable drawings (sections, tolerances, weld symbols, etc.)
• Experience with ECO/ECR processes and revision control
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to interpret engineering intent from incomplete inputs

Benefits

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• Retirement Plan (401k)
