RESPONSIBILITIES:

?Full technical responsibility for planning, organizing and conducting technical projects that involve the creation or modification of mechanical and electro-mechanical components, assemblies and test apparatus.
?Participate in the early phases of development cycle by interfacing with the design engineers and review specs or component samples. Develop initial test procedures on concept models that simulate design intent.
?After initial design approval and prototype build, develop and test methodologies that identify product/component failure points.
?Conduct independent technical investigations involving the application of a variety of mechanical engineering principles in the origination or modification of components or process requirements.
?Develop methods and test equipment to simulate specific human movements, design and construct robots to simulate repetitive motion.
?Design major components of a test system using pertinent machine design factors such as maintaining load and data acquisition conditions, material selection, efficiency and durability.
?Assist cross-functional engineering teams in increasing product development to two new products per year by staggering projects.

QUALIFICATIONS:

?BS Mechanical Engineering; minimum or 5 years experience with devising mechanisms used to test components or assemblies. Pneumatic and hydraulic system design experience a plus.
?Experienced with reliability engineering or statistical techniques when evaluating a design.
?Experience with data acquisition systems, test and measurement equipment, PLC, etc.
?Exposure to solid modeling systems a must, Solidworks preferred.
?Solid analytical skills in areas such as strength of materials, and machine design.
?Very critical for Test Engineer to always maintain a research/investigative approach and constantly devising ways to continuously test components.
?Must be fundamentally solid in engineering theory.
?Exposure to Instron test devices a plus.
?Experience with plastics, castings, electro-mechanical, welded and mechanical components.
