We are currently seeking a Mechanical Designer on behalf of our client-a manufacturer of ruggedized heating and cooling systems for military and aerospace applications. This is a 6-month onsite contract position offering competitive pay and the opportunity to work on mission-critical technology.

About the Role:

In this role, you'll support our client's engineering team by providing drafting, design, and technical documentation for both new product development and improvements to existing systems.

Create and revise 2D manufacturing drawings and 3D models based on new concepts or reverse-engineered parts.


Process Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) and incorporate redline changes.


Collaborate with engineers and other team members to support design reviews and implement updates.


Ensure compliance with MIL-STD, ASME, and GD&T standards where applicable.



Required Qualifications:

Proven experience with sheet metal design, weldments, and structural steel.


Background in reverse engineering of products.


Skilled in producing manufacturing-ready drawings with attention to detail and tolerancing.


Familiarity with GD&T and MIL-STD practices preferred.

Work history involving military or aerospace equipment and standards.



About the Client:

Our client designs and builds robust HVAC systems specifically engineered for military aircraft, expeditionary shelters, and command posts. Their products include large, mobile sheet metal enclosures mounted on wheels, trailers, or forklift-compatible bases-designed to provide climate control in the harshest environments.
