- Designing (70%) testing (30% ) of new components and products, sometimes as sole contributor but often as part of a team of contributors .
- Manage assigned mechanical design projects, adhering to project timelines, budget constraints, and quality standards.
- Perform day-to-day CAD (3D 2D) activities and documentation .
- Conduct periodic design review with mechanical teams cross functional teams.
- Reviewing and analyzing solutions to achieve the best outcome for performance/cost/schedule
- Product testing (DVT) Testing proof-of-concepts and prototypes for performance
- Failure analysis and root cause identification
- Component review and approval, including global travel to be on-site at vendors during pre- production stage.
- Generating own (and reviewing others ) documentation, including concept proposals, analysis reports, component specifications, review minutes
- Ensure quality by design .
- Product testing (DVT) Testing proof-of-concepts and prototypes for performance
- Design and execute comprehensive test plans (Inhouse and external lab) to verify mechanical performance against design specifications, including static and dynamic loading, fatigue testing, environmental testing, and reliability testing.
- Analyze test data, identify potential issues, and implement design improvements to address any deficiencies.
