Duration: 12 months contractJob overview- We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer with experience in precision mechanical design and mechanism development to support next generation advanced equipment platforms.
- The role involves developing mechanical and optomechanical assemblies, taking designs from initial concepts and requirements through detailed CAD modeling, prototyping, testing and design refinement. The ideal candidate will have Handson experience with precision mechanisms, tolerance analysis and mechanical assemblies, along with proficiency in Creo or similar CAD software.
Key responsibilities
- Develop precision mechanical mechanisms and optomechanical assemblies from concept through detailed design and prototyping.
- Translate engineering requirements into mechanical concepts, designs, 3D models and detailed drawings.
- Design precision assemblies involving optical components, including apertures, lenses, mounting and positioning arrangements.
- Perform tolerance stackup analysis to ensure accurate component placement, alignment and assembly performance.
- Support actuator and motor selection in collaboration with motion control and controls engineering teams.
- Work with optical, systems, electrical and other engineering teams to define requirements and coordinate subsystem designs.
- Collaborate with suppliers on component selection, design feasibility and prototype development.
- Support prototype builds, testing, troubleshooting and design modifications for nextgeneration equipment.
- Assist with design qualification, documentation and transition to manufacturing.
Must-have skills- 5+ years of relevant mechanical design and product development experience.
- Handson experience in precision mechanical mechanism design, beyond CAD modeling and drafting.
- Proficiency in Creo; experience with other 3D CAD packages may also be considered.
- Strong understanding of GD&T, precision tolerances and tolerance stackup analysis.
- Experience developing mechanical assemblies from concept through detailed design and prototyping.
- Good understanding of mechanical components, positioning mechanisms and assembly design.
- Ability to work cross functionally with engineering teams and communicate technical concepts effectively.
Desired skills- Exposure to optomechanical design, including optical mounting, lens positioning, apertures and alignment mechanisms.
- Experience in semiconductor equipment, medical devices, instrumentation, aerospace or other precision engineering environments.
- Exposure to thermal analysis or thermal simulation; ANSYS experience is a plus.
- Familiarity with liquid cooling or water-cooled mechanical assemblies.
- Experience with actuator selection, supplier coordination and prototype qualification.
Education- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline preferred.
