Associate, Mechanical Engineer, Calibration and Verification

Job Description

Responsible for conceptualizing, designing, fabricating, and delivering robust opto-mechanical systems. Ideal candidate can apply fundamental engineering principles in conjunction with rapid prototyping and testing to identify potential issues before delivering a final product. Ideal candidate can work across disciplines to understand system requirements and required resources to deliver on schedule. Ideal candidate must be willing to independently pursue new skills/knowledge as needed to complete projects.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate across disciplines to define/refine system requirements and resource needs.
• Develop opto-mechanical concepts backed by fundamental engineering principles, calculations, simulations, tolerance analysis, etc.
• Focus on prototyping early and often to identify potential/future issues. Adept at creating mitigation plans to address issues.
• Define necessary tests and verification plan to ensure system level performance during high-volume manufacturing.
• Manage logistics, schedules, BOMs, cost, and interfacing with suppliers to maintain component quality within schedule.
• Adept at problem solving, issue-resolution, and continued improvement of systems.
• Drive system schedule in sync with critical high-level product goals defined by organization.
• Assist in all facets of the regulatory approvals process, including participating in component and system level design reviews.
• Design, execute and manage tests to collect statistically significant data to ensure technical specifications and product requirements are met.

Qualifications:

• 2-5 years related experience
• Experience with 3D modeling (CREO preferred), tolerance analysis, print generation (GD&T knowledge a plus)
• Experience designing precision machined components.
• Experience with 3D-printed materials.
• Experience working in a high volume manufacturing environment.
• Must be confident in a highly dynamic and creative environment.
• General knowledge of optical principles a plus.
• Basic proficiency in Matlab a plus.
• Working knowledge of statistics for hypothesis testing and Gauge R&R studies.
• Must be willing and able to travel internationally (15-20%)

Education:

• • BS in Mechanical Engineering
