Product Design Engineer at Nesco Resource
Bethel, CT 06801
About the Job
Position Overview:
Design Engineer for pressure transducer / sensors product design and evaluation. The primary function of the position is design work and project engineering support for both sustaining products and new product development.
Product designs are evaluated with layouts, modeling, drawing creation using CAD (CATIA V5, Creo, AutoCAD) and the product release configuration control processes (Enovia). The design engineering position will primarily focus on product design layout, modeling, and drawing creation for machining, casting, assembly, dimensional tolerance, marking, and GD&T per industrial standards. Design decisions will be substantiated with appropriate analysis, trade studies, and legacy product similarities. Phase-Gate product development strategies are utilized for the concept development, design, validation, production, and delivery stages of new product implementation.
They will support product design activities of mechanical and electrical product lines / focus areas by providing sustaining product support, pursuing alternative design approaches and processes when needed, while taking market trends and best practices into account.
Essential Functions:
A. Provides engineering solutions that meet customer performance requirements, interface details, reliability, cost and schedule requirements. Works with customers to define explicit non-ambiguous requirements. Provides technical direction for assigned projects from initial concept phase to product delivery.
B. Understands mechanical, electric-mechanical systems and robust design methods. Responsible for concept layout, modeling, detailing, release and change management of drawings in configuration control system. Ensures compliance to quality system requirements.
C. Establishes technical requirements for fabricated and procured components. Selects materials, finishes, processes, dimensions and GD&T to meet the design intent. Works closely with manufacturing and quality engineers, customers, and suppliers. Visits suppliers and customers as required.
D. Performs mechanical design tasks for cast, machined, and plastic/metallic additively manufactured components. Works with manufacturing and external suppliers to optimize design decisions. Designs electromechanical sensor packaging with CAD component modeling, assembly and BOM structure creation, and production drawings.
E. Works with other *** teams to perform structural static and dynamic analyses, thermal and fluid dynamics analyses, and other engineering analysis methods to verify compliance.
F. Capable of working directly with the customer and have the ability to clearly explain and discuss drawings, engineering analyses, and manufacturing processes.
G. Review customer specifications and drawings and developing Compliance Matrices against requirements.
H. Manages and releases drawings, models and documentation through ***'s product lifecycle management system.
I. Develops plans for design verification and validation testing for design compliance. Provides support in the testing environment.
J. Implements product improvement and cost reduction initiatives by evaluating engineering change requests.
K. Perform Failure investigations associated with field, production and/or development/certification hardware.
L. Supports sales and marketing in generation of proposals and responses to customer inquiries.
M. Designs fluid flow products and fixturing with substantiation of design choices based on fluid mechanics concepts.
N. Oversees the design, build, and testing of engineering prototypes for proposals and internal research and development projects.
Required (Basic) Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering from an accredited institution.
• Minimum of 6 years experience in mechanical design or project engineering.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without company sponsorship, now or in the future.
