Design Engineer 2 - HireTalent

Job Title: Product Systems Design Engineer
Job Location: Bloomfield, CT (On-Site)
Job Duration: 8 months on W2
Hours: Monday through Friday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM

Job Summary:

• This product-focused position applies knowledge of engineering principles and design practices to create optimized design concepts and mechanical design specifications considering application, cost, weight, performance, reliability, durability, manufacturing, assembly, and serviceability.
• This role effectively communicates the capability of a design concept to meet cross-functional requirements including assessment of alternative and competitive design concepts, and works effectively across cross-functional disciplines to develop corporate and customer requirements including those required to resolve product issues.

Key Responsibilities:
* Test fixture design Obtain design requirements and negotiate with cross-functional teams for designing engine test frames, lab endurance test fixtures, and engine test head rigs. Complete the BOM, assemblies, and components CAD models and 2D drawings.
* 2D drawings for CAD models Complete product assemblies and components drawings with given product CAD models, following best practices, design standards, and customer requirements.
Set up proper datum systems and apply dimension tolerance, and GD&T based on design standards and best practices.
* Product design changes Obtain product design change requirements with cross-functional teams and update the product CAD models and drawings to meet the change requirements.
* Tolerance studies analysis of components and assemblies dimension tolerance and GD&T at nominal & worst-case conditions and check the product's global clearance and functions.
A tolerance study can be 1 one-dimension (tolerance linear stack-up) or 2 two-dimension study.

Position Requirements:
* High School Diploma required no advanced degree required.
* Manager is seeking candidates with a minimum of 3-5 years of applicable work experience in their backgrounds.
* Knowledge of MS Office and CREO tools is preferred.
* Familiar with PDM system - preferred Windchill.

Competencies:
* Cross-functional design Integration - Translates the value package requirements that include the voices of many stakeholders into virtual designs and communicates the capability of the design through an approved cross-functional design review.
* Mechanical Design of Mechanical Systems - Acquires and applies an in-depth understanding of mechanical systems through working knowledge that guides a designer s ability to create innovative and sound design concepts to meet *** and customer expectations; designs for requirements of all lifecycle stages by considering the customer requirements in different operating environments to ensure a robust system.
* Mechanical Design Specification - Creates complete specifications in the form of solid models, configured engineering bill of materials, and detailed drawings that cross-functionally communicate the information required to manufacture and inspect a product per its design intent; considers national, international, industry, and *** standards that accurately and concisely define the part specification.
* Mechanical Design Modeling and Analysis - Creates Computer Design models following ***' standards to represent architectural or product-level system design concepts, and to enable the completion of various system-level computer analyses such as Dimensional Variation Analysis and Finite Element Analysis.

Must Have skills and experience:
" Skilled in CAD software and PDM systems, we re using Creo and Windchill as the main CAD tools, and experience with them will be preferred, other CAD tool experience can be also considered if they can catch up quickly.
" Knowledge of mechanical designs, especially on casting, sheet metal, machining process, materials, and treatment. Tolerance and fit selections for different engineering applications.
" Knowledge of engineering drawings, GD&T and tolerance stack up experience. Capable of checking the drawings to ensure the design intent is well-defined in the prints.
