Product CAD Designer

Reporting to the Application Engineering Manager, the Product CAD Designer creates and maintains 3D models and 2D drawings for rubber‑molded sealing products developed by Hutchinson PSS North America. The role serves both Automotive and Non‑Automotive markets and converts internal AE requests or direct customer inputs into production‑ready CAD deliverables. Outputs must comply with Hutchinson dimensioning rules, internal dimensioning tools, and customer specifications including technical cleanliness, ISO/GD&T tolerances, and constraints linked to customer mating parts. The role supports APQP/PPAP documentation and IATF 16949 requirements, enabling robust launches and durable product performance.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

·        Create robust 3D models and fully detailed 2D drawings for elastomeric sealing components using SolidWorks (expert level); CATIA experience is a plus.

·        Apply Hutchinson dimension rules and internal dimensioning tools to all drawings; ensure consistency with = drawing templates, title blocks, and revision practices.

·        Interpret and apply ISO/ASME GD&T to elastomeric parts and mating interfaces; perform basic tolerance stack‑ups for functional fit.

·        Translate customer specifications (cleanliness, materials, tolerances, packaging) into clear, manufacturable drawings; incorporate constraints from the customer mating components.

·        Generate and maintain CAD for RFQs, prototypes, DV/PV builds, and production release; publish neutral formats (STEP/IGES) as required.
