You’ll also be DISRUPTIVE through these duties and responsibilities: Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing Process Development • Develop, validate and implement sustainable, robust and reliable manufacturing processes, equipment and mechanical systems. • Lead mechanical design and analysis of machine structures, mechanisms, tooling, fixtures, workholding, guarding, piping systems and process equipment. • Apply engineering fundamentals including statics, dynamics, strength of materials, machine design, heat transfer, thermodynamics and fluid mechanics to manufacturing applications. • Create and review engineering calculations, equipment specifications, design packages, tolerance analyses and technical documentation. • Use SolidWorks, AutoCAD or equivalent engineering software to develop layouts, models, drawings and design concepts. • Provide strong emphasis on fixture and gaging design, development, validation and implementation for safe, repeatable process performance. • Use prototyping and structured testing methods to develop engineering samples, verify design intent and reduce technical risk. • Partner with New Product Development engineers to evaluate product designs and recommend improvements for manufacturability, assembly, quality and cost. • Lead equipment suppliers and integrators in the development and delivery of custom manufacturing solutions. • Research and evaluate new technologies and breakthrough processes that create a competitive manufacturing advantage. Fluid Dynamics and Process Utility Systems • Serve as the technical lead for industrial fluid systems involving compressed air, nitrogen, natural gas or propane, water, coolant, lubricants, hydraulic systems, vacuum and process exhaust, as applicable. • Perform and document fluid-system calculations including flow rate, pressure drop, velocity, line sizing, Cv, regulator and valve selection, pump or compressor requirements and system capacity. • Develop piping and instrumentation diagrams, process flow diagrams, utility schematics, equipment specifications and installation requirements. • Select and specify piping, tubing, fittings, valves, regulators, filters, flowmeters, pressure instruments, pumps and other fluid-handling components for compatibility, capacity, accuracy and maintainability. • Assess fluid-system behavior across normal operating conditions, startup, shutdown, upset conditions and process extremes. • Lead troubleshooting of insufficient flow, pressure instability, contamination, leakage, excessive pressure drop, heat generation, cavitation and other fluid-system performance issues. • Plan and execute validation testing to confirm fluid delivery, repeatability, process capability and equipment performance against defined acceptance criteria. • Ensure designs incorporate appropriate risk controls, maintainability, isolation points and applicable environmental, health and safety requirements in partnership with EHS and facility stakeholders. Electrical Controls and PLC Support • Provide supporting electrical-controls expertise for machine integration, commissioning and troubleshooting; this is a secondary responsibility to mechanical and fluid-system ownership. • Read and interpret electrical schematics, control panel layouts, I/O drawings, network architecture and device documentation. • Troubleshoot PLC-controlled equipment, sensors, actuators, interlocks, variable-frequency drives, servo systems, HMIs and industrial communications in partnership with controls engineers and technicians. • Perform minor PLC and HMI program modifications within established change-control, backup, validation and safety requirements. • Support Allen-Bradley ControlLogix and CompactLogix platforms and Siemens S7 platforms, or equivalent plant-standard controls. • Develop functional descriptions, sequence-of-operation documents, I/O requirements and controls acceptance criteria for equipment suppliers and integrators. • Verify that mechanical, fluid and electrical-control interfaces function together as an integrated system during design reviews, FAT, installation, SAT and production qualification. Process Validation, Reliability and Continuous Improvement • Apply Design of Experiments, FMEA, PFMEA, statistical data analysis, capability analysis, risk analysis, flow layout and related engineering tools to evaluate and improve processes. • Perform calculation-based and software-aided analyses to demonstrate process reliability, capability, safety and sustainability. • Develop test plans, acceptance criteria and validation reports for mechanical, fluid and integrated automated systems. • Use root-cause analysis and structured problem-solving methods
