Mechanical Design Engineer III

Honeywell•Woburn, MA

About The Position

As part of our dynamic engineering development team, you will design, develop and test sophisticated RF/Microwave products. This will involve: Support Product Design and Development . Lead the design, development and selection of hardware components utilizing mechanical engineering principles, theories, and techniques. Assigned duties may include design and development of specific modules, mechanisms, packaging, components, or subsystems to meet design requirements. Provide technical direction to design support personnel. Perform Mechanical Analyses . Maintain up-to-date working knowledge of company standard analysis tools. Assure adequate analysis to achieve performance objectives. Perform static, dynamic, and heat transfer analyses of mechanical structures. Analyze data and document results. Coordinate Validation of Design . Coordinate the fabrication and environmental testing of design hardware. Design and procure prototype hardware. Coordinate the environmental testing of hardware including: vibration, shock, thermal, fatigue, and others as required. Review and document test results. Assist in product transition to Production as required. Prepare Documentation. Generate, review, and approve the technical content of drawings, engineering specifications, reports, and other documentation associated with the mechanical design. Prepare design review packages and present for internal review. Support Continuous Improvement. Ensure compliance with CAES Quality System, Configuration Management and the Mechanical Design Process. Maintain up-to-date knowledge of developments in Mechanical Engineering disciplines. Recommend improvements that produce cost effective and producible designs. Product Support. Generate Engineering Change Orders to maintain engineering documentation and incorporation of drawing changes of existing product documentation. Other Duties. Make independent technical decisions on work consistent with objectives. Organizational support of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools and processes. Assignments may include research and development of new techniques and materials as a result of independent study.

Requirements
