• test planning
• simulation
• design review
• data analysis

Tasks

-Collaborate and communicate with other teams in the product development process/projects to ensure the final product meets all objectives and customer requirements in all product areas -Be involved in all steps in the product development process/life cycle, from customer requirements, to design, to prototype manufacturing, to product qualification, to final product implementation and product launch -Derive component-level requirements from assembly requirements to create part specifications and drawings: -Communication with all suppliers and vendors to determine manufacturability -In-depth involvement in all aspects of the test phase to validate design. Provides detailed analysis based on mathematical, finite element analysis, and experimental data -Provide accurate and precise product performance results for marketing and sales for product selection -Create robust design using DFMEA method during design, analysis and testing -Analyze test data and reports, making clear conclusions if designs meet functional, performance, and safety specifications -Develop parts qualification process/procedure and makes decisions pass/fail from developed criteria -Communicate and instruct designers to create specifications and check part drawings -Evaluate all mechanical aspects to ensure the product designed and developed will meet life cycle requirements. This will include detail stress, vibration, modal, fatigue analysis of all designed components -Communicate and instruct lab technicians to set up tests and gather data to meet the test parameters and accuracy requirements -Create and implement planning for compressor development including Design and Review milestones -Use simulation tools to simulate design performance and reliability to support DFMEA -Provide documentation, both high-level and detailed documentation, for all projects and tasks throughout the development process -Participate in inspection results to ensure all designed parts are manufactured as specified, within specified tolerances -Create pass/fail criteria of analysis and test results by applying reason and logic to fundamental mechanics -Plan and develop test programs for prototypes using Design of Experiments as needed for complex problems with many variables
