Manager, Mechanical Engineer, Calibration

Job Description

Responsible for leading a team of 4-5 Mechanical Engineers to deliver factory calibration stations from concept to production . Ideal candi date is a strong collaborator; able to reach across organizations to clarify expectations, achieve 'buy-in' where appropriate, and verify system performance through to the final customer. Ideal candidate has a strong technical background and is excited to provide coaching on topics including 3D CAD modeling, 2D Drawings, tolerance analysis, exact constraint design, etc. This position will be based at HQ in Plantation, FL and will require you to be onsite.

Responsibilities

• Ideal candidate is hands-on and versatile, able to serve in a leadership role and as a direct contributor.
• Drives implementation of calibration stations from concept phase to factory-appropriate solutions (on site and at international manufacturing facilities).
• Implements/enforces processes that ensure a high standard of quality for mechanical design, testing, analysis, 3D CAD modeling, drawings/specs, BOM creation, etc.
• Ideal candidate has a strong technical background and is excited to provide coaching on topics including 3D CAD modeling, 2D Drawings, tolerance analysis, exact constraint design, etc.
• Ideal candidate coaches the team to deliver mechanical concepts backed by fundamental engineering principles, calculations, simulations, tolerance analysis, etc.
• Ideal candidate exercises compassionate leadership, communicates clear performance expectations, and coaches team towards independence.
• Adept at problem solving, issue-resolution, and continued system improvement. Understands when an off-the-shelf solution is appropriate and when creative, in-house designs are necessary.
• Ideal candidates can identify short and long-term solutions, confidently schedule work, and close issues in a timely manner.
• Ideal candidate is willing to independently pursue new skills/knowledge as needed to complete projects.
• Implements/enforces processes to ensure station precision / accuracy over time and across duplicate stations.
• Drives station development in sync with high-level product goals (eg. build schedule, budget, cycle time, performance, etc.)
• Drives collaboration between organizations to bridge communication gaps, clarify internal/external customer requirements, identify risks, sync dependencies, and support transparent exchange of data.

Qualifications

• 8-10 years relevant experience in manufacturing of consumer / enterprise electronics products.
• Strong leadership skills with a demonstrated record of leading a team of engineers to success.
• Working knowledge of statistics for hypothesis testing, Gauge R&R, process capability analysis, and process sensitivity metrics.
• Exceptional presentation, organization, and logistical skills.
• Experience with CREO and Windchill. Experience creating and maintaining 'top-down' (AKA 'master-driven') CAD models.
• Experience creating CAD drawings with appropriate ASME Y14.5 GD&T notation.
• Experience with precision machined components (tolerances down to +/-0.05mm), 3D-printed materials,T-Slot Framing.
• Experience with exact-constraint mounting and variations (eg. kinematic, quasi-kinematic, pin/slot, pin/diamond pin).
• Experience with tolerance analysis
• Must be comfortable in a highly dynamic and creative environment bound by time constraints.
• Must be willing and able to travel internationally (10-15%)
• Basic proficiency in Matlab, Python or C++ is a plus.
• Six Sigma Green or Black Belt is a plus.
• Experience with JIRA and driving teams with an agile mindset is a plus.
• Experience in opto-mechanics, optics, robotics, and/or computer vision calibration is a plus.
• Experience in injection molding, silicone molding, and sheet metal is a plus.

• BS in Mechanical Engineering
