• - Drive mechanical product development from concept and specifications to final machine launch.
• - Perform engineering analysis of machine elements, sub-assemblies and structural components using first-principles engineering.
• - Perform calculations involving forces, torque, power, deflection, stress, vibration, thermal effects and metal cutting.
• - Select and evaluate motors, ball screws, linear guidance systems, hydraulic/pneumatic components, pumps and other machine elements.
• - Apply DFM, DFA, DFX and FMEA principles throughout the design process.
• - Conduct FEA and simulation for mechanical, thermal and vibrational behaviour.
• - Apply GD&T, material properties, heat treatment and surface treatment principles in design.
• - Define and execute life-cycle testing and validation of critical components, sub-assemblies and complete equipment.
• - Conduct feasibility studies for new technologies and engineering innovations.
• - Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver technically robust and manufacturable solutions.

Required Skills:

• - Strong experience in Mechanical Design & Development.
• - Hands-on experience with Fixtures, Automation and SPMs.
• - Strong understanding of machine building and mechanical systems.
• - Excellent knowledge of Machine Design, Engineering Mechanics and Machine Elements.
• - Strong understanding of GD&T, manufacturing processes and design for manufacturing.
• - Ability to perform engineering calculations and interpret simulation/FEA results.
• - Strong analytical, first-principles and critical-thinking approach.
• - Methodical approach with strong attention to detail.

Tools:

• - PTC Creo – preferred
• - Exposure to PLM systems
• - FEA: Mechanical, Thermal & Vibrational

Ideal Candidate:

This opportunity is suited for engineers currently working in:

• - Machine Design
• - Robotic Automation
