Key Responsibilities

Product Design & CAD Modeling

• Create and modify 3D component and assembly models using Creo based on engineering requirements, design inputs, packaging constraints, and applicable standards.
• Develop and maintain product specifications, including solid models, configured engineering bill of materials, and detailed engineering drawings.
• Support engineers in developing CAD concepts and basic design solutions for assigned EBU components and assemblies.
• Apply mechanical design principles and working knowledge of product systems to develop accurate and practical design solutions.
• Consider product requirements, operating environments, interfaces, clearances, manufacturability, and lifecycle requirements when developing models and drawings.
• Escalate complex design or technical decisions to the responsible engineer or technical lead.

Engineering Drawings & GD&T

• Create and revise production drawings using Creo, including dimensions, tolerances, GD&T, notes, materials, and other required engineering specifications.
• Ensure drawings accurately communicate design intent and manufacturing and inspection requirements.
• Apply Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) principles appropriately to product designs.
• Ensure models and drawings comply with applicable Cummins, industry, national, and international standards.
• Participate in Drawing Quality Reviews and incorporate review feedback into engineering documentation.

CAD Quality & Self-Check

• Perform detailed self-checks of Creo models and drawings before formal review.
• Verify geometry, dimensions, interfaces, clearances, drawing details, GD&T, and design requirements.
• Identify and correct discrepancies, errors, and quality issues before release.
• Maintain high standards of CAD and drawing quality through adherence to established design practices and procedures.

Windchill & Product Data Management

• Use Windchill and applicable CAD data management tools to manage models, drawings, associated product data, revisions, and lifecycle activities.
• Maintain configuration control, data integrity, security, and traceability of product artifacts.
• Establish and maintain product artifact baselines in accordance with configuration management processes.
• Support the release, tracking, control, and communication of product changes from concept through obsolescence.

Engineering Change Management

• Process and implement approved engineering changes, including CR/CN/CA activities, in Creo models, drawings, and associated product data.
• Complete required Windchill activities while maintaining accurate revision and configuration control.
• Process internal engineering work requests in accordance with established procedures and timelines.
• Ensure changes are accurately reflected across applicable product documentation and configurations.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Engage with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Product Development, and other functional teams as required.
• Obtain and incorporate engineering inputs to develop accurate product specifications and documentation.
• Communicate technical information, requirements, risks, and work status clearly to relevant stakeholders.
• Support effective communication of product design intent across engineering, manufacturing, and inspection functions.

Delivery & Continuous Improvement

• Complete assigned design and drafting activities within agreed quality, scope, and timing expectations.
• Communicate risks, technical concerns, and potential delays at an early stage.
• Progressively work with reduced supervision as technical capability and product knowledge develop.
• Learn from drawing reviews, checker feedback, quality issues, and completed assignments and apply lessons learned to future work.
• Participate in maintaining and improving design standards, practices, tools, and processes.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of product design quality, documentation, and engineering workflows.
