Description
Obtain input from stakeholders to deliver information and recommendations that lead to quality product decisions and improve processes such as Engineering Standard Work (ESW), iDFMEA, Failure Incident Report Group (FIRG) and tools including design review checklist to enable high quality decision making. Determine assignable causes for product problems, implement robust, data-based solutions, and identify systemic root causes in order to solve issues and recommend actions to prevent problem reoccurrence. Responsible for the development of product verification and system validation plan to identify failure modes while managing risk and relative priority. Evaluate analytical and experimental test results following engineering principles to verify that products meet internal technical requirements and that design solutions meet user needs. Mitigate potential product failure modes by identifying interfaces, functions, functional requirements, interactions, control factors, and noise factors. Utilize knowledge of Product development execution, Monitoring and Control to assist with activities involved in developing a product to a respectively aligned hierarchy of requirements and technical profiles, meet project resource and quality expectations, ensure product capabilities meets or exceeds expectations, take mitigating actions when project risks are high and understand the full product life cycle process and stakeholders. Identify system capability and risks through analysis and experimental testing of the system, sub-system or super system in the context of its environment. Apply understanding of mechanical systems towards the design for requirements of all lifecycle stages by considering the customer requirements in different operating environments to ensure a robust system. Create complete mechanical design specifications in the form of solid models, configured engineering bill of materials and detailed drawings that communicate the information required to manufacture and inspect a product per its design intent.
