Description

About the Role We are seeking a CAD Designer to join our design team supporting the development of Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) blanket systems. This role is ideal for candidates with a background in industrial design, apparel/technical design, or pattern development who are interested in applying their 3D-to-2D translation skills in a high-performance manufacturing environment. This is not an engineering role. We are looking for someone with strong spatial visualization skills, attention to detail, and an interest in growing their CAD capabilities — particularly in Creo. This role operates with direct mentorship and structured guidance while building technical proficiency. What You'll Do * Create and modify 3D CAD models in Creo based on design inputs and guidance from engineering. * Translate 3D models into accurate 2D flat patterns for fabrication and production. * Develop detailed drawings and documentation to support manufacturing. * Assist with configuration updates and drawing revisions. * Prepare layout files and ensure pattern accuracy for production use. * Support internal design reviews and incorporate feedback into revisions. * Maintain organized CAD files and follow established naming and revision control processes. * Collaborate with engineering and production teams to ensure designs are practical and manufacturable. * Learn and apply company design standards and CAD best practices. * Contribute to continuous improvement of templates and workflow processes as skills develop. What We’re Looking For * Associate's or Bachelor's degree in CAD Design, Industrial Design, or a related field. * 2+ years of CAD engineering or design experience in a manufacturing or engineering environment. * Basic proficiency in Creo (preferred) or equivalent CAD platforms such as SolidWorks. * Strong ability to conceptualize 3D forms and translate them into accurate 2D flat patterns. * High attention to detail and strong visual-spacial skills. * Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. * Excellent verbal and written communication skills. * Strong organizational skills and ability to follow structured processes. * Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines. * Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite or similar tools. * Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, production-focused environment. About Aerothreads Aerothreads is an aerospace manufacturing company specializing in high-performance Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) blanket systems and thermal solutions for space and defense applications. We work in a highly technical, configuration-controlled environment where precision, quality, and collaboration are critical. Our engineers partner closely with customers, manufacturing, and program teams to deliver reliable, mission-ready solutions and continuously improve how we design, validate, and build our products. Position is in person in Riverdale, MD
