Msp Technologies Ltd

The Role

Overview

Design and develop CAD models/drawings for multi-source power systems

Key Responsibilities

  • cad modeling
  • technical drawings
  • tolerance analysis
  • design documentation
  • supplier liaison
  • design review

Tasks

To support the design and development of innovative multi-source power systems through the creation of high-quality CAD models and drawings (using 3D CAD software "Onshape”). The CAD Designer will assist in turning conceptual ideas into manufacturable components and assemblies, contributing to the engineering team’s delivery of efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable power solutions. Liaise with suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure feasibility and cost-effectiveness of designs. Internal: Collaborates with Senior Engineers, Project Managers, Manufacturing, Procurement, and Quality teams. Assist in the preparation of technical drawings for prototype development and production release. Support continuous improvement initiatives to enhance design processes and standards. Produce accurate 2D drawings and 3D models using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar). Support the creation and maintenance of design documentation, including bills of materials (BOMs), part specifications, and assembly instructions. External: May interact with suppliers, fabricators, and component vendors under the supervision of senior staff. Conduct tolerance analysis and basic stress/load analysis under guidance. Work closely with the engineering and R&D teams to develop design concepts into manufacturable solutions. Participate in design reviews, providing input and taking feedback to refine designs.

Requirements

  • cad
  • bachelor's
  • technical drawing
  • teamwork
  • communication
  • time management

What You Bring

Experience with CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD) through academic or placement projects. A bachelor’s degree (or expected graduation) in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or a related discipline. Strong visualisation and technical drawing skills.
