Senior Mechanical Engineer (Memory Test, Agoura Hills, CA)

Teradyne•Agoura Hills, CA

4d•$121,700 - $214,200

About The Position

The Senior Mechanical Engineer will develop detailed design solutions from product requirements with minimal oversight, present proposed solutions to design and manufacturing engineers, perform design-for-manufacturing work with vendors, and prepare final fabrication drawings and bills of material. The role also builds initial prototypes for validation and performs required design verification. Success requires effective teamwork and communication in a remote environment, as well as curiosity, initiative, and eagerness to take on new challenges. The engineer collaborates with Hardware, Software, Signal Integrity, and Mechanical engineering teams on signal delivery projects. The work spans requirements and constraints, design concepts and reviews, project schedules, prototyping and testing, and New Product Introduction. The position coordinates validation of signal integrity requirements, maintains engineering documentation and design records, and communicates designs to other Teradyne teams.

Requirements

BS or BSME, or an equivalent degree.
Five or more years of relevant experience with electro-mechanical design.
Familiarity with SolidWorks or similar software and PDM tools.
Familiarity with sheet metal and machined-part design.
Familiarity with stress/strain analysis and FEA.
Ability to prepare presentations explaining work and design proposals to remote teams.
Familiarity with remote collaboration tools such as Teams, Webex, or Zoom.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Demonstrated ability to work successfully with a team.
Must be local to the position location; relocation is not provided.
Not eligible for visa sponsorship.

Nice To Haves

Working knowledge or experience with electrical connector design for power delivery and high-speed signal delivery.
Familiarity with measuring connector performance metrics such as lifecycle, contact resistance, and current carrying capacity.
Familiarity with signal integrity concepts for single-ended and differential signaling, including insertion loss, return loss, and crosstalk.
Familiarity with coaxial cable mass termination techniques.
Knowledge of basic PCB design concepts, including material choice, high-speed signal routing, and manufacturing techniques.
Experience with Cadence Allegro or a similar PCB CAD tool.

Responsibilities

Collaborate with Hardware, Software, Signal Integrity, and Mechanical engineering teams to understand requirements and constraints for new signal delivery projects.
Develop and maintain design documentation.
Manage signal delivery project schedules through design, prototyping and testing, and New Product Introduction phases.
Develop Statements of Work for third-party vendors.
Work with signal delivery architects and third-party vendors to create design concepts and participate in design reviews.
Coordinate with signal delivery architects to create test plans, interpret signal integrity test results, and determine whether results meet design requirements.
Collect and maintain engineering design documentation, calculations, simulation results, and measured performance data for new and existing signal delivery designs.
Create and maintain part numbers, bills of material, and assembly drawings for new and existing signal delivery projects.
Create Engineering Change Notices (ECNs) to document and track design changes.
Create high-level documentation to communicate signal delivery designs with other Teradyne teams.
Prepare design proposals and presentations for design and manufacturing engineers and remote teams.
Build initial design prototypes for validation and perform required design verification.
