Key Responsibilities

  • Own mechanical design for assigned subassemblies from concept through mass production
  • Conduct design reviews and lead tolerance analysis
  • Execute EVT, DVT and PVT builds, analyse test failures, and iterate based on learnings
  • Partner with CMs and ODMs on DFM reviews, tooling, Golden Sample alignment and production readiness
  • Author and own 2D drawings and specifications
  • Drive ECOs, drawing releases and change control in Arena
  • Finalise part designs for owned components, selecting materials, finishes and part construction with input from Sourcing and the CM
  • Approve drawing releases for BOM-level parts and communicate clearly across engineering, sourcing and manufacturing partners
  • Work in Onshape as the core mechanical CAD environment
  • Decide part design, material and finish, tolerance scheme, and drawing release for owned parts
  • Align before committing on anything that moves cost, tooling, timeline or another team's scope
  • Find and resolve mechanical issues during EVT, DVT and PVT
  • Release robust parts on time for key milestones with minimal avoidable ECO rework
  • Balance tolerances, materials, manufacturing constraints, performance and cost, iterating fast when validation requires change
