Job Description
We are looking for a CAD Drafter to join our team in Hector, Minnesota and contribute to the development and refinement of engineered products. In this role, you will partner with engineering and design teams to produce accurate models, detailed drawings, and controlled documentation that support both new product development and updates to existing designs. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys translating technical concepts into precise drafting deliverables while helping move ideas from prototype through testing and release.
Responsibilities:
- Build 3D CAD models and prepare production-ready drawings that clearly communicate design intent and technical requirements.
- Collaborate with engineers and designers to support product enhancements, design changes, and the development of new concepts.
- Update drawings and models in response to review feedback, ensuring final documents are accurate, complete, and easy to interpret.
- Assist with prototype-related design tasks and help document results from concept evaluation and testing activities.
- Maintain organized records of drawings, revisions, and related files so project information remains accessible to the broader team.
- Manage engineering change documentation and help ensure revision control is followed throughout the drafting and release process.
- Develop a strong understanding of product components, assemblies, and real-world performance to improve drawing quality and design support.
- Contribute visual materials and supporting graphics for presentations, technical documentation, and project communication as needed.
