HireSetu's note
Refrigeration and AC is the screen
A mechanical degree with 2 to 5 years is the easy part. What narrows this pool fast is the demand for design engineering in refrigeration or air conditioning applications, plus a working grasp of HVAC systems. Compressors and refrigeration cycles sit in the good-to-have list, so a candidate who can explain why a part is sized the way it is beats one who only recites CAD hours.
If your experience is automotive brackets, pumps or appliances, think about how you would pick up the domain. The conversation will test whether you understand the product, not just the modelling.
Change paperwork fills the week
ECN execution, BOM upkeep in PLM, version control and release processes get as much space in the responsibilities as concept design does. Most weeks carry both: modelling and drawings on one side, and the paperwork that pushes changes through the system on the other. The listing calls this an individual contributor role, and the KPIs are on-time delivery, quality and consistency. Nobody will check your drawings for you.
Project management appears as future scope, so this can grow into planning and scheduling work if you want it to. They also want someone who spots automation possibilities in current processes, which tells you they value engineers who trim the repetitive parts themselves.
Put fitment work first
Lead with NX, or whichever CAD tool you use daily, for both 3D models and 2D drawings. Then GD&T and tolerance stack-up, with one example of checking fitment across parts and fixing an interference. After that, PLM workflows: which system, how many ECNs you have driven, what your BOMs covered. HVAC application work belongs high on the page if you have it.
DFMEA, VAVE and DOE read well only when you can point to a project where you ran one. The same goes for casting, machining and sheet metal. One line saying your parts went into production says more than a long tools list.
