RUN Studios, and its client partner, a large online retailer headquartered in Seattle, are seeking a Mechanical CAD Designer to join our creative team as a dedicated contractor for a 6-month project. We are seeking a skilled Mechanical CAD Designer to join our hardware development team. In this role, you will create detailed technical drawings and 3D models for mechanical components and assemblies used in our robotic systems. You will sit at the interface of design and production, translating engineering concepts and specifications into precise, manufacturable documentation that guides our fabrication and assembly processes. As a Mechanical CAD Designer, You Will Create detailed 2D production drawings and 3D CAD models for mechanical components and assemblies used in robotic systems. Work closely with mechanical designers to translate 3D mechanical designs into accurate, production-ready drawings before sending parts to manufacturing. Use Onshape to develop, modify, and maintain accurate mechanical designs and production documentation. Apply GD&T tolerancing principles to ensure drawings communicate clear and manufacturable design intent. Apply mechanical tolerancing, fits—including clearance, transition, and interference fits—and surface finish specifications. Interpret engineering sketches and concepts and translate them into formal, production-ready drawings. Collaborate with engineers, mechanical designers, production teams, and vendors to ensure designs and documentation support fabrication and assembly requirements. Review CAD drawing feedback from vendors, make necessary updates and revisions, and maintain accurate documentation throughout the design-to-production process. Develop documentation with an understanding of common manufacturing processes, including CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing, and casting. Maintain accurate and error-free documentation while adhering to applicable ASME Y14 and/or ISO drawing standards. Support mechanical documentation for electromechanical assemblies and robotic systems, including complex mechanical parts with fast turnaround requirements. Work within revision control systems and support engineering change order (ECO) processes, incorporating continuous feedback as designs evolve. Create drawings and documentation appropriate for hand-built and low-volume production environments. Demonstrate exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to producing clear, accurate, and manufacturable technical documentation, with the ability to respond to drawing and dimensioning feedback within a typical 24-hour timeframe. In This Role, You Bring 2+ years of experience as a mechanical drafter or similar role in a manufacturing environment. Proficiency in Onshape and other 3D CAD software for mechanical part and assembly modeling. Strong working knowledge of GD&T principles and their practical application. Solid understanding of mechanical tolerancing, fits (clearance, transition, interference), and surface finish specifications. Familiarity with
ASME Y14
series and/or ISO drawing standards. Ability to interpret engineering sketches and translate them into formal production drawings. Understanding of common manufacturing processes (CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing, casting) and how they influence drawing requirements. Strong attention to detail and ability to produce error-free documentation. Exposure to electromechanical assemblies or robotic systems. Experience creating drawings for hand-built or low-volume production environments. Familiarity with revision control systems and engineering change order (ECO) processes.
