Job Type: Contract
Compensation Range: $50 - 65 per hour
We are seeking talented
3D Visualization Designers and CAD Specialists on behalf of our client in the Heavy Equipment Manufacturing industry. We are building a qualified talent pool to meet projected staffing needs for an anticipated contract role. This position is ideal for professionals who bridge the gap between technical engineering data and high-end commercial rendering. Please note that specific pay rates and project details may vary depending on the roles that arise.
Responsibilities:
- The primary objective of this role is to transform complex engineering CAD data into high-fidelity, interactive product visualizations for digital marketing and web-based platforms.
- Data Translation: Import and manage large-scale STEP files from engineering platforms (specifically PTC Creo / Windchill) for use in rendering software.
- Model Optimization: Prepare engineering assemblies for visualization by removing non-visible internal components, simplifying geometry, and managing large datasets to ensure performance efficiency.
- Asset Creation: Extract and export technical decals, labels, and branding elements into appropriate formats for texture mapping.
- Advanced Rendering: Create photorealistic product images and interactive 360-degree assets that allow users to rotate equipment and inspect specific features on web interfaces.
- Supplemental CAD Modeling: Perform precision modeling of missing or simplified components that are not present in engineering-grade files-such as tire treads, hydraulic hose routing, and cabin interior details-to ensure visual accuracy.
Qualifications:
- To be considered for this talent pool, applicants must demonstrate a high level of proficiency in both technical CAD management and artistic rendering.
- Industry Experience: A minimum of 5+ years of experience within the construction, agricultural, or heavy equipment manufacturing sectors is preferred. Familiarity with the scale and complexity of large machinery is essential.
- Technical Proficiency: * Expertise in working with STEP files and navigating PTC Creo and Windchill environments.
- Mastery of industry-standard rendering software (e.g., KeyShot, V-Ray, 3ds Max, or Unreal Engine).
- Modeling Skills: Strong mechanical modeling capabilities to augment existing engineering files with high-detail cosmetic features.
- Portfolio: Candidates must provide a portfolio or work samples demonstrating the ability to turn raw CAD data into photorealistic, marketing-ready assets.
- Education: A Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Graphics, or a related technical field is preferred.
