About The Position

Tektronix is seeking an entry-level Mechanical Engineer to join its Precision DC Solutions team in Solon, Ohio. The role supports the design, development, testing, and improvement of precision electronic test and measurement products. The successful candidate will have 0 to 5 years of engineering experience and an interest in mechanical design and product development. Three-dimensional CAD modeling experience from school, internships, co-ops, or employment is required. Creo and experience with electronic or electromechanical products are preferred but not required. The engineer will design mechanical parts, assemblies, and enclosures; create and maintain CAD models, drawings, bills of material, and product documentation; and support product development from concept through production release. The role involves collaboration with cross-functional teams, prototype building and design verification testing, and applying design practices that support thermal performance, strength, manufacturability, and reliability. Additional work includes investigating production, quality, and customer issues; supporting engineering changes and product lifecycle management; participating in design reviews; supporting existing products and continuous improvement; and working with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure designs can be built safely and consistently.
