Senior Mechanical Engineer

A Senior Mechanical Engineer designs, builds and tests various mechanical devices, like industrial machines, transportation systems and robotics equipment. Their main duties include locating problems with various machinery, conducting experiments to improve different product designs and using CAD technology to build product designs. 

• Design mechanical and mechatronic systems for industrial robotics applications.
• Analyze mechanisms and components for strength, reliability, and environmental loading. 
• Support cost-down initiatives 
• Work with and possibly direct interdisciplinary teams including electrical, systems, and safety to assist in the definition of mechanical design requirements. Be responsible for or assist with the successful management of engineering programs as they relate to cost, quality, safety, timing and customer satisfaction 
• Manage subsystem and component level design requirements through cross functional collaboration. 
• Conduct and participate in the design meetings/reviews, machine debug, power-up, and machine validation and testing with the appropriate functional teams. 
• Create and manage highly detailed and functional 3D models and detailed drawings.
• Optimize designs via analytical, numerical and/or empirical assessments. 
• Be responsible for the creation, development and release of component and system specifications and documentation, including ECO creation for releasing all product documentation to the PLM system. 
• Be responsible for the creation of component and subsystem design verification plans and test methods, as well as actual testing.
