HOW YOU'LL MAKE AN IMPACT
Provide engineering design support, working closely with Application Engineers, contributing to designing the next generation of lighting and electronics products that are manufacturable and meet customer requirements along with regulatory requirements and guidelines.
Utilize the escalation process when necessary in order to draw attention to, and help develop mitigation plans for risks to product development.
Utilize structured problem-solving methods to analyze and solve problems related to product failures throughout the life of the product (DFMEA, 8D's etc.).
Support Program Managers in technical discussions with the customers and PDT meetings as required.
Support tooling/equipment tryouts, at suppliers and Rebo manufacturing sites.
Generate presentations for customers (internal and external) and management as required.
Required to follow any other instructions and to perform any other duties as requested by supervisor.
Adhere to design standards and procedures, while providing designs utilizing 2D and 3D tool.
You'll design injection molding plastic parts or lighting products based on the input from experienced Product and Application Engineers
Participate and provide input in design reviews
You'll utilize TeamCenter and 3DX to download, upload, and release data to specific OEMs. Internal data is also handled in Teamcenter
