AF_101 - Mechanical Design Engineer – MV Switchgear & PLM Data Migration

Location: Bangalore, India

Department: Staffing

Experience: 3-6

Role Overview

Key Responsibilities

1. CAD Cleansing & Product Architecture

• Cleanse, audit, and restructure complex 3D CAD models and assemblies using Autodesk Inventor.
• Reorganize non-standard assemblies into modular, configurator-friendly product structures.
• Validate DXF cut profiles and flat patterns against 3D sheet-metal models to guarantee fabrication accuracy.

2. Engineering BOM & Data Standardization

• Construct, clean, and re-architect Engineering Bills of Materials (EBOM) to align with manufacturing and PLM structures.
• Standardize material specifications, material grades, and hardware callouts across drawings and CAD metadata.
• Implement and manage standard fastener and hardware libraries across switchgear sub-assemblies.

3. Sheet Metal & Machined Component Design

• Detail, model, and create manufacturing drawings for MV switchgear sheet-metal enclosures, frame structures, and machined components.
• Apply proper Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), fabrication tolerances, and surface treatment callouts.
• Ensure physical designs account for electrical clearances, creepage/clearance distances, and structural integrity.

4. PLM & Data Migration Readiness

• Audit and clean engineering drawings, model attributes, and assembly dependencies for Windchill PLMmigration.
• Identify and fix broken links, missing metadata, duplicate part numbers, and non-standard drawing formats.
• Collaborate directly with internal engineering leads and customer stakeholders at the Bangalore site.

Key Qualifications & Skills

• Education: B.E. / B.Tech / M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering or Production Engineering.
• Domain Experience: 3 to 6 years of mechanical engineering experience focused on Medium Voltage (MV) or High Voltage (HV) Switchgear, panel enclosures, busbar routing, or similar electrical power distribution equipment.
• CAD Tools: Advanced proficiency in Autodesk Inventor (Sheet Metal, Large Assemblies, Frame Generator, Drawing Creation).
• PLM/PDM Experience: Direct experience with PTC Windchill or similar PLM environments (handling lifecycle states, CAD check-in/check-out, attribute mapping, and BOM management).
• Manufacturing Knowledge: Strong grasp of sheet-metal operations (punching, bending, laser cutting), machining processes, fastener selection, and tolerance stack-up analysis.

Preferred / Desirable Skills

• Prior experience in large-scale CAD migration, legacy data conversion, or PLM transition projects.
• Familiarity with rule-based design automation, iLogic in Autodesk Inventor, or product configurators.
• Strong communication skills and experience representing an engineering services partner at a client location
