Job description

Position Summary

SUMMARY:

Researches, analyzes, designs, and tests electro-mechanical component parts, processes, or systems to develop new and/or improve core products. Develops and recommends solutions for technical project assignments using fundamental principles of engineering. Applies electrical engineering principles to support production/legacy designs, supplier products and test equipment.

Interaction is primarily within Parker and core team or cross-functional internal teams.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

• Collaborating in a team environment develops assigned portions of design by analyzing specifications and performance requirements. Performs routine design and supports development of assigned products (e.g. new mechanical or electromechanical components, subsystems, and systems) by applying basic engineering principles and established analytical tools.
• Design, fabricate, modify, test and evaluate circuitry of electronic devices or systems. Develop documentation (schematics, theory of operation, design package, etc.) for hardware and test boxes as needed. Requires a working knowledge of Analog & Digital electronic theory and design. Knowledge of microcontrollers and related software/tools is a plus.
• Design, test and build circuits and troubleshoot production and test equipment to identify root cause of failure or noncompliance. Must support Corrective Action.
• Create detailed electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and layouts to integrate motors, actuators, and other electrical devices in the design and development of electromechanical fuel and pneumatic components.
• Choose appropriate components and materials that meet the strict requirements for aerospace applications and ensure all designs comply with rigorous aerospace standards, regulations and obsolescence.
• Participate in design reviews and collaborate with other engineers, project managers, and regulatory agencies.
• Develop and test prototypes, perform simulations, analyze test data, and troubleshoot electrical issues to ensure component reliability and performance.
• Investigates product development factors such as ease of manufacture, availability of materials and equipment, interchangeability, strength-weight efficiency, contractual specification requirements, cost-defining recommendations, and change proposals.
• Completes defined technical tasks (e.g. modify product functional specifications, detailed drawings and schematics; define data elements and structure; analyze and interpret test reports).
• Develops reports and documentation in response to technical information requests.
• Conducts routine analysis and/or tests to evaluate product designs, methods, materials or processes and completes required technical documentation by applying engineering principles and company standards, and generating reports, procedures, or change proposals as required.
• Provides technical information for review with product engineering and design review teams.
• Consistently applies established engineering practices, standards, and documentation methods.
• Contributes to supporting documentation for procedures and technical reports.
• Adopts lean product development and standard engineering development and techniques.
• Maintains professional and technical knowledge by attending educational workshops, reviewing technical publications, and/or participating in professional associations.
• Work assignments may include cross-functional or project team responsibilities. Contributes and supports other teams or individuals as needed.

JOB REQUIREMENTS:

• Bachelor's degree (BS) (or Professional Engineer (PE) certificate) in electrical engineering. Professional entry level position. May have limited prior industry experience or have worked with direction in student internship programs.
• Fundamental knowledge of electrical engineering domain principles, concepts, and techniques.
• General knowledge of industry products, customers, and related legal/regulatory requirements.
• Fundamental knowledge of and use of basic engineering design and analysis tools (e.g. computer-aided design programs). Learns and utilizes specialized engineering databases; may require programming skills.
• Develops familiarity with products and customer specifications and standards applicable to assigned product line or system.
• Ability to communicate status of technical tasks and actions taken with clarity and precision.
• Ability to work with general direction and instruction regarding the scope of assignments; determines the priority and order of assignments; and applies judgment in selecting procedures and techniques.
• Ability to read, analyze, and interpret technical journals and reports. Ability to present findings and information in both formal meetings and informally within and across Parker teams.
