• Work closely with the hardware, thermal, software, supply chain and outside partner teams to ensure project goals and schedules are met.
• Validate product performance against requirements from many internal customers using design and simulation tools.
• Perform part and assembly level tolerance analysis, motion and performance studies.
• Quickly iterate through various design concepts, bringing them to life via fast prototypes that can be fabricated with assistance from our prototyping lab.
• Create test plans, design test equipment and undertake testing procedures to verify design performance.
• Create documentation and specifications suitable for prototyping, quoting and production.
• Work with contract manufacturing partners through the design-for-manufacturing process and engineering verification stages required to move the product from prototype to production.
• Understand different type of product packaging and the testing requirement.
• Support our manufacturing partners by working on-site with their overseas design and manufacturing teams.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical or mechatronic engineering or equivalent industry experience.
