At Orqa, we’re building technology that allows humans and machines to see the world like never before. We bring together engineers, creators, and innovators who push the boundaries of what’s possible - from cutting-edge FPV systems to advanced Remote Reality solutions, and toward the next generation of robotics. And behind every great technology, there’s great organization.

As a Senior CAD Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in bridging the gap between conceptual design and physical production by applying your deep knowledge of advanced materials, multi-axis CNC machining, and industrial 3D printing, mold design for injection molding, design for injection molding.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Develop complex 3D solid and surface models, as well as precise 2D production drawings, using SolidWorks

• Optimize designs for manufacturability (DFM), specifically tailoring parts for both subtractive processes (3-axis and 5-axis CNC machining) and additive manufacturing (industrial 3D printing)

• Select and specify appropriate high-performance materials based on mechanical requirements, thermal resistance, and weight limits (e.g., high-strength aluminum and composites)

• Perform tolerance stack-up analysis and apply advanced Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T - ASME Y14.5) to ensure accurate manufacturing

• Manage complex assemblies and maintain strict version control using SolidWorks PDM

• Collaborate closely with manufacturing engineers and machinists to troubleshoot production constraints and iterate on designs

WHAT WE EXPECT:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)

• 5+ years of dedicated CAD engineering experience in a precision manufacturing environment

• Expert-level proficiency in SolidWorks (CSWP or CSWE certification is a strong plus)

• Deep, practical understanding of CNC machining limitations, 3D printing technologies, and material properties

• BONUS: Previous experience in the aerospace industry or familiarity with aerospace quality standards (e.g., AS9100) is a major plus, but not required:

  focus on prototyping and precision
