Drafter / Design Engineer

Are you a CAD professional who wants to see your work leave a real mark on the world? At Bradley Pulverizer, the drawings you create become equipment operating in over 40 countries — in cement plants, steel mills, and mining operations across the globe. And because we’re a small, close-knit team, you’ll have visibility across the entire business — working alongside engineers, the shop floor, project managers, and customers.
Bradley Pulverizer has been designing and manufacturing some of the most reliable pulverizing and classification systems in the world since 1886. We’re headquartered in Allentown, PA, and while our footprint is global, our team is tight-knit, collaborative, and genuinely invested in each other’s success.
We're looking for a Drafter / Design Engineer to join our team. This is not a heads-down, work-in-isolation kind of role. You'll collaborate with engineers, manufacturing, project managers, field service teams, and our UK office — and you'll see the direct result of your work on the shop floor and at customer sites around the world.
What You'll Be Doing
Creating, revising, and maintaining 2D and 3D engineering drawings using AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor
Producing detailed fabrication, assembly, and component drawings to tight standards
Supporting the manufacturing team with drawing questions and technical issue resolution
Managing Bills of Materials (BOMs), drawing revisions, and engineering documentation within our ERP system
Assisting with product development, design updates, and R&D prototype support
Collaborating with our global engineering team, including our UK office, on shared projects and standardization initiatives
Participating in equipment inspections, audits, rebuilds, and retrofit projects
Traveling (domestically and occasionally internationally) to support customer installations, commissioning, and field verification activities
What We're Looking For
Required:
Proficiency in AutoCAD (2D) — detailed, precise drawings are your foundation
3D CAD experience in Autodesk Inventor or SolidWorks
2+ years of drafting/design experience in an industrial or manufacturing environment
Associate degree or technical diploma in Drafting, Mechanical Design, or related field
Understanding of manufacturing processes, fabrication drawings, and mechanical assemblies
Strong attention to detail
Collaborative mindset and strong communication skills
Curiosity and openness
Preferred / Nice to Have:
Experience with ERP systems and BOM management
Familiarity with PDM/document management systems
Experience supporting field service, commissioning, or installation activities
Knowledge of machining, welding, and fabrication practices
Experience working with heavy industrial equipment or material processing equipment.
Why This Role Stands Out
At a large corporation, you might spend years in a narrow lane. At Bradley Pulverizer, you'll get exposure to the full spectrum of engineering operations — from design to shop floor to customer sites — in a fraction of the time.
Small team = high visibility, real relationships, and meaningful contribution from day one
Direct feedback loop with our manufacturing team — you'll see and hear how your drawings perform in the real world
What We Offer
Competitive compensation based on experience
100% company-paid healthcare for employees
401(k) with company match
Annual profit-sharing program
Flexible hours (preferred start time 7:00–9:00 AM)
