Job Description:

This Aftermarket & Improvements Engineering ll position is responsible for engineering design and support for both GILLIG Parts sales, production as well as Continuous Improvement projects. Duties involve engineering assistance, creating aftermarket kits, problem resolution, identify/provide cost reduction efforts and other engineering duties in support of the design and manufacturing of specific components and simple sub-systems. This person will have direct influence at the part level to optimize the piece parts and simple sub-systems. This position reports to the Engineering Supervisor but may also get direction/guidance from senior engineers. You will collaborate with internal and external partners to interpret customer requirements, supply chain capabilities, manufacturing capabilities and business needs. You will contribute to complex designs at the subsystem and vehicle level, devising optimal product solutions in concert with electrical and product validation peers. Responsibilities:

Can communicate component level design/idea to internal/external customers Evaluates customer product requirements and develops product designs to meet customer needs Interpret customer requirements, and map requirements onto existing designs when possible, and/or develop new designs when needed Optimize designs via analytical, numerical and/or empirical assessments. Make mechanical, thermal and electrical models/analysis to insure product requirements are met Produce and/or evaluate possible design solutions to improve cost, quality, delivery and performance on specialized knowledge of engineering applications together with possible involvement of other functional engineers and/or customer/supplier personnel Direct CAD Designers to complete 3D models and drawings as necessary Release drawings accordingly to support production cost estimation and prototype quotes Review CAD models and drawings of component to ensure their integrity Use CAD modeling software to create components, assemblies, and engineering drawings for manufacturing Create and maintain Bill of Materials (BOM) along with all project documentation Design and document solutions, within the scope of concepts, for components and modules, taking project guidelines (e.g. safety, quality, costs, weights and dates) into consideration Detail mechanical & electrical design including design for manufacture and assembly Analyze assignments and determine engineering specifications which must be fulfilled for problems or projects Support production ramp & ongoing/continuous product/process improvement Perform and coordinate laboratory testing of prototypes for component characterization Work with the test engineer(s) to create DVP&R, execute the defined test plan and review the test results/reports Conduct field testing and provide preliminary evaluations Develop and maintain the technical specification for desired performance at the component level Ability to prioritize assigned tasks to maintain schedule Works independently on assigned component tasks with some guidance required from senior engineers on sub system level tasks Works productively with other engineers, designers, technicians, sales representatives, installers, and project managers so the project is delivered on schedule and on budget Provide technical design support to sales, product engineering, manufacturing, and quality organizations Provide technical guidance to junior engineers at component level Support purchasing, field service and other internal customers as required Lead or support prototype order and procurement Operate in a team environment and provide input to design solution during the design development phase Applies industry practices and standards (NFPA, NEC, APTA, etc.) at the direction of senior engineers Area of expertise at the component level Model and drawing documentation is accurate and complete Exhibits insight and mechanical/electrical design sense to develop and meet design requirements with product designs that are manufacturable, cost-efficient, reliable, and better than the competition Hands on troubleshooting of vehicle systems Released designs are cost effective, manufacturable, serviceable, meet all performance objectives and meet customer requirements TECHNICAL FOCUS:
