Centrally located just ten minutes outside of downtown San Diego, fostering a flexible, small team environment that provides a very clear path for growth and development. Their senior leadership does a very good job of preventing folks from becoming stagnant in their positions/careers and anyone looking to gain strong experience designing process system components using SolidWorks is encouraged to apply.
Thoughts on the duration of this position: Current labor market conditions often dictate that companies hold onto talented employees after investing months to get them up to speed with the framework of their operations. Many small to mid-sized firms have realized how costly and inefficient it is to let go of a contract employee who has met or exceeded expectations for the duration of the assignment only to use a staffing firm to backfill the position months later. If you go out there and showcase that you can consistently and reliably produce quality design work, this client has a track record of holding onto contract designers and engineers for longer than the initial contract period or hiring contractors directly.
