Job description

DFM - Mechanical Assembly Designer & DFM Engineer

The Mechanical Assembly Designer & Design for Manufacturing (DFM) Engineer is responsible for designing mechanical assemblies with a strong emphasis on manufacturability, cost efficiency, reliability, and scalability. The role bridges mechanical product development, manufacturing engineering, and industrialization — ensuring that designs are optimized for production processes, assembly workflows, tooling, tolerances, material selection, and quality standards.

The position leads global ME assembly design and fixture design teams across all UX R&D locations (~20 headcount). It directly impacts OEE by aligning product assembly features with production process requirements, improving First Pass Yield, and driving significant cost reductions in both unplanned scrap.

Role Overview

A mechanical assembly designer is responsible for designing mechanical parts and assemblies to ensure proper fit, function, and performance of the product.

Key Responsibilities

• Create 3D models and 2D drawings for parts and assemblies using CAD tools (Creo, SolidWorks, CATIA, NX)
• Design mechanical assemblies considering fit, form, and function
• Define assembly sequences, interfaces, and mating conditions
• Prepare BOMs, engineering drawings, and specifications
• Perform tolerance stack‑ups and basic design validations
• Collaborate with analysis, testing, and manufacturing teams
• Support prototype build and design revisions

Primary Focus

Ease of manufacturing, cost, quality, and scalability.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering
• Strong knowledge of mechanical design principles
• Hands‑on experience with CAD modeling
• Understanding of GD&T
• Basic awareness of manufacturing processes
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical / Manufacturing Engineering
• Strong knowledge of manufacturing processes
• Experience with DFM, DFA, PFMEA
• Cost reduction and process optimization skills
• Understanding of quality and production constraints

Additional Information

• Product Assembly — assembly processes, design principles, and component integration
• Technical Drawing Review & Tolerance Calculation — GD&T, stack‑up analysis
• FEM Simulation & Process Simulation — structural and process analysis tools
• CAD Design & Tools — 3D modelling, drafting, and design software
• Process Engineering — understanding of manufacturing and assembly processes
• Action Implementation Tracking — structured follow‑up and delivery management
• Tolerance Calculations — dimensional chain analysis and precision engineering

Qualifications

Education

• Mechanical Engineering degree with a strong understanding of precision assembly processes and detailed knowledge of the product life cycle (PLC) in automotive electronics / displays

Professional Experience

• More than 3 years in product engineering, industrial engineering, or process engineering

Project Experience

• At least one successful product design taken through to manufacturing

Leadership Experience

• More than 2 years in ME project management or a component management role

International Experience

• Experience working in international teams and supporting global production sites
• Electrical Hardware Development, PCB Design, or Embedded Hardware Engineering.
• Proven experience in project planning, WBS creation, cost/effort estimation, and engineering project tracking.
• Hands‑on experience in EE simulation (pre- and post-layout), high‑speed design, and signal/power integrity analysis.
• Experience with DFMEA creation, updates, and risk‑mitigation methodologies.
• Strong background in component qualification, manufacturing technology development, and prototype build support.
• Prior exposure to engineering release management (material release notes, release plans, documentation).
• Experience working cross‑functionally with mechanical, software, quality, manufacturing, and product management teams.

Technical Skills

• Proficiency in PCB CAD tools (e.g., Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, Mentor Graphics).
• Knowledge of EE simulation tools (e.g., HyperLynx, LTspice, PSpice, Ansys SIwave).
• Strong understanding of EMC/EMI, high‑speed design, SI/PI, impedance control, and PCB stack‑up.
• Experience with environmental & climatic robustness requirements.
• Understanding of safety characteristics (SCs), DFMEA, CQM, and reliability engineering.
• Familiarity with manufacturing processes, prototype builds, and equipment validation (RE1/RE2).
• Ability to create clear technical requirement specifications and evaluation packages.
• Knowledge of industry standards (IEC, ISO, IPC standards like IPC‑2221/2222/6012).

Project & Process Skills

• Strong capability to create and manage project schedules, WBS, and engineering project plans.
• Skilled in opportunity & risk identification, assessment, and mitigation planning.
• Experience preparing procurement decisions, equipment requests, and proof‑of‑concept documentation.
• Proficient in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools and release processes.
• Ability to conduct structured design reviews and engineering release reviews.
• Experience with requirements elicitation and stakeholder analysis.
