  • Strong fundamentals in the field of Mechanical Engineering including design and analysis from 1st principles, trade-studies, failure analysis and system integration
  • Subject matter expertise in one or more of the following areas: FEA, machine design, tolerance analysis, GD&T, DFx, sheet metal design, product compliance
  • Experience with the manufacturing methods: milling, turning, sheet metal, casting, injection molding, metal forming, extrusion
  • Ability to lead a cross-functional team of engineers through influence. A willingness to share know-how and best practices learned through your years of real-world experience
  • Familiarity with using data capture and analysis tools such as MathCAD, Matlab, Python, etc.
  • Expertise in trade-off analysis for complicated system design; identifying problems, proposing and evaluating candidate solutions and driving towards the best solution
  • Experience in 3D CAD (SolidWorks preferred), PDM, and PLM (Arena)


Important Note:

Although we list out what we generally look for, we are likely missing other attributes and skills that you have that could make you a great fit, but are not currently listed. Research has shown this especially applies to women and other marginalized groups, who tend to apply if they check 100% of every box, versus men who apply if they hit roughly 60%. The point we're getting at, it doesn't hurt to take a chance and apply
