[Remote] Mechanical Designer – Power Transformers

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. CTS International is recruiting Mechanical Designers to support an unnamed leading transformer manufacturer. The role focuses on creating production-ready CAD models and manufacturing drawings for transformer and heavy electromechanical equipment, while collaborating with the client’s mechanical design team.

Responsibilities

• Convert 3D CAD models into complete, dimensioned manufacturing drawing packages
• Create accurate 3D models from existing 2D engineering drawings
• Design sheet-metal and welded assemblies , including:
• Apply GD&T and tolerance stack-up principles to ensure drawings are ready for fabrication
• Develop detailed manufacturing and fabrication drawings
• Maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs) alongside models and drawing packages
• Work within established client engineering standards and drawing conventions
• Collaborate remotely with the client's in-house mechanical design team
• Produce designs and drawings that can move efficiently from engineering to the shop floor

Skills

• Demonstrated mechanical design experience with power transformers, distribution transformers, or comparable heavy electromechanical equipment
• Strong proficiency with Solid Edge
• Advanced experience with another parametric CAD platform such as: • SolidWorks • Autodesk Inventor • Creo with the ability to quickly become productive in Solid Edge
• Strong sheet-metal and weldment design experience
• Experience developing flat patterns through final fabrication drawings
• Strong understanding of GD&T and manufacturing tolerances
• Experience producing engineering drawings that have successfully moved into manufacturing
• Ability to work independently in a distributed remote engineering environment
• IEEE, ANSI, ASTM, or CSA standards related to transformer design
• Transformer thermal and cooling design
• Short-circuit force considerations
• Heavy electrical or electromechanical equipment

Benefits

• Remote opportunity — work remotely while supporting a hands-on manufacturing engineering program; required on-site travel to Pine Bluff, Arkansas at project start and approximately every six weeks thereafter.
• Initial six-month engagement with possible extension and possible FTE opportunity.
• Required travel to the client site is covered.
• Referral incentives on eligible placements.
• CTS benefits on eligible assignments: medical, dental, vision, HSA access, 401(k) + Roth, paid holidays, and additional eligible benefits.
