Autodesk Vault jobs

About the role
Join our Fabrication Engineering team to design and develop precision assemblies that meet demanding customer requirements—balancing thermal and mechanical performance, manufacturability, and schedule. You’ll move from concept to prototype to production, collaborating cross‑functionally to deliver high‑quality products on time and within budget. This position requires a high level of attention to detail, organizational, project management and multi-tasking skills, including proactive problem solving. As part of the NPI Engineering, team will be expected to offer suggestions and participate in Continuous Improvement initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

- Review RFQs, customer requirements, drawings, and BOMs to support manufacturing feasibility and project planning.
- Develop manufacturing process plans for machined parts and assemblies.
- Determine manufacturing sequence and routing for parts, including Lathe, Mill, secondary operations, and outside processing requirements.
- Understand how parts can be manufactured efficiently based on geometry, tolerance, material, and machine capability.
- Create and maintain process flow diagrams, routing sheets, SOPs, and manufacturing documentation.
- Handle Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) in Vault and ensure proper revision control of drawings and manufacturing documents.
- Create, update, and manage CAD drawings, in-process drawings, and manufacturing support drawings using Autodesk Inventor.
- Coordinate with CNC programmers, planners, machinists, quality teams, and production teams to ensure smooth execution of work orders.
- Track released work orders and monitor production status to ensure parts are progressing according to schedule.
- Coordinate with planners and shop floor teams regarding machine loading, production priorities, raw material readiness, and scheduling constraints.
- Support new part introduction from quotation stage through production release.
- Review part drawings and determine suitable machining strategy, machine selection, work holding, and operation sequence.
- Work on cost estimation, cycle time review, and manufacturing feasibility during RFQ stage.
- Support fixture planning and review fixture requirements for new parts.
- Communicate with USA-based teams regarding project status, engineering changes, production updates, and open issues.
- Monitor project timelines and follow up with internal teams to ensure deadlines are met.
- Support issue resolution for machining, documentation, scheduling, and process-related problems.
- Drive continuous improvement activities related to productivity, cycle time, rework reduction, and manufacturing efficiency.
- Maintain organized documentation, project files, ECO records, and manufacturing data in Vault and source folders.
- Work closely with quality teams on transparency data, inspection feedback, NCRs, and process improvement opportunities.
- Support transition of manufacturing and planning activities into ERP systems such as Epicor.
