The Senior Electro-Mechanical Engineer is responsible for the design and development of mechanical parts for new electronic products and systems. This includes the design of injection molded plastic parts, stamped metal parts, cast metal parts, and rubber parts. It also includes understanding electronics manufacturing processes to determine the best mechanical design of the printed circuit boards. Product design may include mechanical simulation / analysis and mechanical testing. The electro-mechanical engineer will work with other members of the product development team and with Indesign’s clients for new product introduction into manufacturing.
Specific Job Responsibilities:
• Estimate electro-mechanical development costs for new projects
• Develop mechanical requirements for products / systems
• Create mechanical product / system architectures
• Select electro-mechanical parts (connectors, cables, potentiometers, encoders, etc.) with input from electrical engineers
• Create detailed designs of mechanical parts
• Perform mechanical stress analysis and thermal simulations
• Conduct mechanical design reviews
• Procure and evaluate prototype mechanical parts
• Assemble mechanical parts for prototype models
• Test mechanical parts and product prototypes
• Work with the factory to incorporate DFM requirements into the mechanical design
• Create mechanical design release packages for factory production
• Evaluate production tooled parts
• Support the factory for pilot product introductions
• Provide mechanical sustaining engineering
• Provide support to create project proposals / statements of work
• Work with the project team and project manager to create project plans
• Work with electrical engineers and PCB designers to accommodate electronics into design
• Interface with clients to communicate electro-mechanical design progress and seek client inputs
• Oversee mechanical design processes
Qualified Candidates MUST be able to meet the following requirements:
