Full Job Description
Overview
Responsible for using mechanical engineering principles to design, develop, customize, implement, test and/or sustain TDW products and services solutions for customer applications. This is an individual contributor role that works independently and with a team of other mechanical engineers and collaborates with individuals from other engineering specialties for finished system or product.
Key Responsibilities
Primary duties may include, but are not limited to:
Applies knowledge of engineering principles to design components, products, tests and systems.
Documents design calculations, tolerance analysis, concept development, 3D CAD models, engineering drawings and details design activities.
Assists in the creation of product documents (e.g. build and/or operating/maintenance manuals).
Completes engineering change requests that provide needed improvements to documentation and design.
Estimates durations for application development, assists with prototype assemblies and validation processes and meets deadlines.
Assists with test programs, including plan development, running tests and compiling test results and analysis reports.
Reports to engineering manager and will work under the guidance of senior engineers.
