Quality:

• Actively pursues continuous improvement and ease of doing business to meet or exceed customer needs.
• Develops procedures and processes that lead to reliable designs.
• Understands and uses the philosophy and tools of total quality, lean manufacturing, and design for manufacturability and serves as an engineering resource in teaching the use of these tools to others within the department.

• Researches and develops core technologies required by company to sustain or improve its competitive lead.
• Designs, develops, analyzes and documents product designs which meet the functional, cost, reliability, manufacturability and safety requirements of the company.
• Acquires and applies skills necessary to design, develop and introduce new products with the greatest possible design margins and in the shortest amount of time.
• Identifies, quantifies, and implements tools, methods, processes and equipment, which improve the quality, reliability and productivity of the department.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical or Product Design Engineering. 
• 8+ years of product design/engineering experience, including the use of standard mechanical engineering analysis and software (i.e. FEA, kinematics and tolerance analysis).
• Able to analyze components and assemblies (static, vibe and fatigue strength) to meet design goals. Working knowledge of thermal management, basic electronics and optics is a plus.
• Experience in design for manufacturability and assembly, able to apply engineering fundamentals to solve complex design problems. Strong experience designing for fabrication processes: sheet metal, extrusion, injection molding, machining and casting.
• Experience with Technical Proposal Support (ability to generate specification compliance documents, Conceptual Drawings, estimate project cost, and execute proposal deliverable items).
• Experience with contract execution (maintain project documentation package, coordinate various multi-functional engineering tasks in a fast environment, manage design development schedule and status meetings).
• Strong experience in electro-mechanical packaging. CAD - SolidEdge and CATIA 5.
• Use standard test and measurement equipment to quantify design margins and problems.
• Ability to identify, quantify and permanently resolve problems.
• Ability to sustain existing product lines.
• Able to use Windows PC’s and standard software applications including Excel and Word.
• Ability to positively communicate with customers (internal and external), to address their needs promptly and to follow through on commitments.
• Project leadership experience is a plus.
• Ability to establish technical standards, methods and priorities.
• Ability to communicate plans, projects and capabilities to the Management.
