Engineering Department Summary: The primary responsibility of the engineering department is to design, improve, and implement mechanical structures, electrical components, and industrial process systems. You will apply this systematic approach to multiple aspects of our business including product development, industrial engineering, product evaluation/evolution, and sales/customer support. The problems the engineering dept. are expected to solve are diverse and quite often unexpected. These may include:
Designing structures within tight geometrical constraints.
Adapting products to meet unorthodox customer requests.
Diagnosing and resolving product failures in the field.
Adaptivity and creative thinking are key to success.
General Engineering Responsibilities
Design, improve, and test (1) Structural, (2) Electromechanical, and (3) Hydraulic systems. Engineers should have a working knowledge of structural, electromechanical, and hydraulic systems and the ability to integrate them into cohesive designs.
Follow a systems engineering framework to solve complex problems.
Support business processes for products through sales, production, installation, and technical support.
Consult sales representatives and customers on best solutions for customer needs.
Apply design techniques for multiple fabrication methods including sheet metal, routing, frames, and solid modeling for 3D printing.
Develop and document processes for manufacturing, quality control, and inventory integration.
Ensure designs meet criteria outlined by governing or certifying bodies and familiarize yourself with commonly used standards (e.g., NIST 44, NFPA 70, UL 508).
Provide technical support to production staff, troubleshoot engineering issues, and fulfill drawing requests for customer communication.
Conduct research on emerging technologies, experiment with prototypes, and analyze test data to improve product performance.
