• Design and develop battery charger & battery management circuits, including smart chargers for batteries inlcuding Ni-Cad and Lithium based batteries.
• Use own judgment in overcoming minor technical problems that arise, while seeking guidance on unusual and/or difficult cases from supervisor.
• Write, document, and provide special manufacturing guidelines and test specifications for new products, materials, or processes.
• Independently evaluates, selects, and applies standard engineering techniques and procedures using data-based judgment in making adaptations and modifications.
• Design, coordinate, and hold design reviews, providing deliverables such as complete Bill-of-Materials, block-diagrams, schematics, drawings, PCB design documentation, specifications, test data results, and other necessary documentation and information.
• Issue complete and concise reports regarding the performance of new or improved products, as well as competing products.
• Participate in the initial production phase of manufacturing inquiries and problems.
• Prepare and coordinate completed working prototype samples from manufacturing, including samples for the UL Client Test Data program, and production.
• Guide and assist product engineers with manufacturing documentation with respect to PCB layout, mechanical design, manufacturing equipment restrictions and necessary documentation for new or major redesigned products.
• Participate in ALT, HALT, PTC testing, and other reliability/quality tests programs.
• Develop and execute reliability studies, which includes successful on-site or off-site installations and conduct reliability tests and analysis for new or major redesigned products.
• Determine the proper materials that are to be used in each product and participate in test programs for new materials.
• Specify and monitor tests for product compliance with the applicable standards required by qualifying agencies, i.e. UL, FCC, etc.
• May supervise or coordinate the work of other engineers to effectively introduce new products to manufacturing, assist PCB & Mechanical design, & technicians.
• Evaluate product or material performance as necessary to support the Quality, Manufacturing, and Field Service functions.
