You want work within a small tight-knit team of Surfacing Designers so you can learn as much as possible about tangent/curvature/acceleration continuity, what makes NURBS be NURBS, challenge yourself to build complex forms cleanly and beautifully yet also manage the innumerable changes that will be asked for, and have the opportunity to develop production-ready geometry that captures the desires of Industrial Designers, Mechanical Engineers and Manufacturing Engineers and will live in millions of homes.
Job Responsibility:
Support the development of category-defining products, helping Meta change the world through design
Help define and refine the visual and physical language of our brand through the design of our hardware
Create and update 3D CAD surfaces and solid bodies to assist the product development process and for cross-discipline use
Create Class-A production-ready 3D CAD surfaces and bodies across multiple projects and product categories
Utilize your good aesthetic and mechanical sensibilities to conceive elegant and effective solutions to complex geometry, ergonomic and mechanical challenges
Work collaboratively with multiple cross-functional teams on complex technical programs in a fast-paced environment
Requirements:
A Bachelor's degree or relevant experience in Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
5+ years of professional experience as a 3D Modeler or CAD Surfacing Specialist, developing complex parts for industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, wearable tech, sports equipment, etc
Mid-level knowledge of a high-end parametric CAD surfacing software such as PTC Creo or Siemens NX, including “master/skeleton” modeling for highly integrated assemblies
Experience designing parts with consideration for plastic injection molding, CNC machining, and metal forming/casting/extrusion/stamping best practices
Experience managing complex part interactions and assemblies
Good understanding of product architecture and internal component layout
Experience utilizing rapid prototyping techniques such as 3D printing and CNC machining to help validate part design
Nice to have:
In-depth sense of manufacturing requirements
Developed sense of design/aesthetics/flow in art, or photography, or automobiles, or boats, airplanes, etc
Love to build stuff, be it tinkering projects, or house renovations, or bicycles, or musical instruments, or cars, etc
Ability to “see” shapes in your head: imagine them, spin them, and express those shapes in CAD or words or clay, etc
Ability to be the paintbrush of the artist, the chisel of the sculptor - intuiting and expressing what they want
Very capable of managing your time, energy, and kindness within ever-changing and often challenging work schedules
