    • Create detailed 3D models and mechanical layouts for fire pump packages, suppression system components, and specialty industrial assemblies.
    • Produce system layouts, drawings, schematics, and complete production documentation using Autodesk Inventor.
    • Perform mechanical design calculations and ensure accuracy across all deliverables.
    • Prepare and maintain technical documentation, including bill of materials and specification support.
    • Collaborate with project managers, engineers, and cross‑disciplinary teams to develop coordinated designs.
    • Review drawings for correctness, constructability, and alignment with applicable codes and internal standards.
    • Provide recommendations on equipment selection, layout feasibility, and product application.
    • Support design revisions, document control, and design‑tracking processes to meet shifting project needs.


    Qualifications:

    Must‑Have

    • 2–5 years of Autodesk Inventor experience (non‑negotiable).
    • Mechanical design experience within industrial, manufacturing, construction, pump systems, valve assemblies, or related mechanical environments.
