PRIMARY FUNCTIONAs a member of the Hardware Team, you'll be responsible for exploring new product ideas, developing technology platforms, and supporting existing products. You'll identify technology opportunities, investigate solutions, collaborate with the design team, and validate production designs that deliver exceptional user experiences. You'll use engineering principles to translate marketing requirements into technical measures and collaborate with the test team to validate that product performance meets requirements.You will use validated simulations to increase the number of designs that can be explored, increase the likelihood proofs of concept meet requirements, and optimize concepts. Using both rapid prototyping and traditional fabrication techniques, you will create functional prototypes to evaluate new concepts. The position involves proactive, professional communication and a high degree of collaboration and coordination across functional groups and reporting structures. Regular supervision is not required, although regular reporting to multiple stakeholders and proactive communication is essential for this role.
