Mechanical CAD Design Engineer

Mahindra Group • Freiberufler

Jul 2019 - Sep 2022 • 3 yrs 2 mos

Joined the engineering design team supporting manufacturing and industrial clients across multiple international projects. Created 2D manufacturing drawings, detailed 3D CAD models, assemblies, and engineering documentation using SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, and AutoCAD. Collaborated with senior engineers to improve product designs for manufacturability, performed design revisions, prepared bill of materials (BOM), and supported prototype development. Contributed to engineering validation through basic finite element analysis and technical reporting while ensuring compliance with client specifications and industry standards. Streamlined documentation workflows that reduced drawing revision turnaround and improved project consistency across distributed engineering teams. Regularly communicated with multidisciplinary stakeholders in remote project environments while maintaining high-quality deliverables and on-time project completion.
