Although the role category specified in the GPP is Hybrid, the requirement is for Onsite.

Key Responsibilities

• Investigate and resolve product design issues within Value Package Introduction (VPI), Product Preceding Technology (PPT), or Value Package Change Request (VPCR) programs.

• Create and refine CAD models, drawings, and specifications using tools such as CREO, following internal standards and practices.

• Support and lead the application of engineering tools such as DFMEA, GD&T, tolerance stack-up analysis, and DVA.

• Collaborate across disciplines to drive design intent through effective design reviews and documentation.

• Conduct product-level design assessments and optimization for function, cost, reliability, and manufacturability.

• Provide technical input on component and system-level decisions and present solutions in cross-functional settings.

• Utilize simulation and analysis tools (e.g., ANSYS Workbench) to validate designs.

• Engage in continuous improvement of tools, methods, and processes related to mechanical design.

• Support configuration management and maintain traceability of design changes.

• Participate in the mentoring and coordination of technicians and student interns as needed.
