| An exceptional career opportunity for an experienced and highly motivated CAD designer to join a start-up in the area of bio-technology. Pacific Biosciences is seeking the best for developing instrumentation that will revolutionize DNA sequencing. The CAD designer’s responsibilities will include, but are not limited to: • Must effectively apply solid modeling 2 and 3D tools, to perform drafting and design tasks. • Prepares complex mechanical and electrical layouts providing proper component relationships, positioning, clearances and tolerances. • Prepares complex mechanical or electrical detail and assembly drawings of new or modified designs. • Develops complete major layouts and engineering drawings of complicated components and assemblies from notes, rough sketches or general instructions from engineers. • Collects and organizes data and information required by engineers & other technical sources. • Takes measurements and performs dimensional calculations and analysis. • Applies special techniques in schematic drawings, isometric, orthographic, perspective projection or other techniques of technical illustration. • Maintains and recommends Pacific Biosciences drafting standards and ANSI industry standards. • Stays informed of CAD system design methodology (software and hardware). • Applies machine shop practices to ensure the most cost effective methods of tooling and machining of appropriate engineering changes. • Applies standard documentation control procedures for part number creation and version control to manage design and bill of material changes in pre-production environment according to form, fit and function principles. • Ability to independently perform simple design tasks such as machined part design, bill of material generation and sourcing of mechanical components a plus. Position Requirements: • Expertise with solid modeling mechanical design software required; Solidworks experience preferred. Experience with precision mechanical components and optics preferred • Knowledge of basic manufacturing processes, design limits and tolerances preferred. • Excellent interpersonal, communication skills. Demonstrated experience in working within a multi-disciplinary team in a fast paced, technically challenging environment. Relevant product development and / or industry experience required | |

We are looking for some temporary help building CAD models of client invention concepts. Ideally, this person would be a product designer. It could turn into full-time employment down the road.
We need someone to knock out whole models in 1-3 days per. We prefer to work in SolidWorks for the downstream functionality it has. The models need to look good on the outside, but the inside components may be suggested by simplified versions of themselves. For example, a motor can be shown as a cylinder with a shaft and wires. The basic configurations of the components need to be there, but these are marketing presentation models, so the purpose is selling a concept, not working out all the details. That said, we have to add legitimate value to our clients’ concepts by thinking them through enough to present a basic BOM along with the marketing materials.
Essential duties of job:
- Produce 3D models, renderings and basic technical drawings of invention concepts for marketing portfolio presentations
- Provide design consultation/specifications regarding materials and processes
- Coordinate with the design director and product licensing managers to revise models based on feedback
Skills/Experience:
- Experience with 3D modeling in SolidWorks, and rendering in any application.
- Ability to work independently
- Ability to work quickly and deliver when promised
- Organized and detailed oriented
- Analytical and creative
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
Pay is about 20/hr, or $200-$500 per model.
