Job Area

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Mechanical Engineering

General Summary

Designs and analyzes mechanical systems, equipment and packaging. Conducts feasibility testing on new and modified designs to determine potential costs and time to market. Directs support personnel in the preparation of detailed design, design testing and prototype fabrication. Provides design information to multiple functional teams. Receives and/or develops requirements from other functional areas and ensures that the design meets the goals of the project.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field, and 2+ years of experience with mechanical systems, equipment, and packaging, or related work experience.
  
  

OR

Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field, and 1+ years of experience with mechanical systems, equipment, and packaging, or related work experience.

OR

PhD in Mechanical Engineering or related field.

• Grasps, turns, and manipulates objects of varying size and weight, requiring fine motor skills and hand-eye-coordination.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience with mechanical systems, equipment, and packaging, or related work experience.
• 4+ years of experience with design testing and/or prototyping.
• 4+ years of experience with 3D CAD software (e.g., Creo).
• 2+ years of work experience in a role requiring interaction with senior leadership (e.g., Director level and above).
  
  

Principal Duties And Responsibilities

• Helps to set sub-system application cognizant requirement specifications and other design information to produce a design concept for relatively straightforward projects; provides guidance to less experienced engineers.
• Participates in the development of complex design features; identifies potential flaws (e.g., mechanical, equipment, packaging) with minimal supervision of more experienced engineers.
• Contributes to the design of overall system by focusing on an individual part of the system.
• Designs prototypes for complex parts that meet design requirements.
• Applies knowledge to identify specific off-the-shelf parts needed for design process and provides clear recommendations for sourcing and the number of required parts.
• Verifies board designs by determining size, outline, mounting, and interface of circuit board features.
• Prepares detailed documentation so that parts can be fabricated by outside tooling shops; makes sure long lead items are ordered early enough in process.
• Follows design verification plans of varying complexity/ambiguity to contribute to prototype design and assess product reliability.
• Applies basic mechanical engineering principles to the evaluation of the assembly process of a product and provides input on potential improvements to more senior engineers.
• Creates Assembly Bill of Material; documents essential details about product components and assemblies; records and tracks changes to mechanical design accurately.
• Writes, reviews, and edits documentation of mechanical processes, and outlines how mechanical designs/analyses are to be used.
• Serves as a tech lead on small to mid-sized projects and owns the outcome of elements of a project.
• Provides accurate schedule for own tasks in the planning process for a project and assists junior engineers in the planning process. Manages own schedule and completes work on time.
• Performs analyses and conducts research and investigation to find the cause of product/design issues; identifies possible solutions and ensures solutions meet customer needs while also preventing future issues.
  
  

Level Of Responsibility

• Working under some supervision.
• Making decisions that are moderate in impact; errors may have relatively minor financial impact or effect on projects, operations, or customer relationships; errors may require involvement beyond immediate work group to correct.
• Using verbal and written communication skills to convey information that may be somewhat complex to others who may have limited knowledge of the subject in question. May require basic negotiation and influence, cooperation, tact, and diplomacy, etc.
• Having a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions (e.g., is consulted by senior leadership to provide input on key decisions).
• Completing tasks with multiple steps that can be performed in various orders; some planning and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively; mistakes may result in some rework.
• Exercising creativity to draft original documents, imagery, or work products within established guidelines.
• Using deductive and inductive problem solving; multiple approaches may be taken/necessary to solve the problem; often information is missing or incomplete; intermediate data analysis/interpretation skills may be required.
• May be solicited during strategic planning period.
  
  

The Responsibilities Of This Role Do Not Include

• Financial accountability (e.g., does not involve budgeting responsibility).
