Job details:
- Lead technical execution of new product development programs, serving as a system‑level engineer responsible for integration, design maturity, and on‑time delivery.
- Lead teams to Architect, design, and integrate complex mechanical and electrical systems for generator and power generation products, including engines, alternators, enclosures, controls, and supporting subsystems as applicable.
- Translate customer, regulatory, and business requirements into system‑ and component‑level functional and performance requirements.
- Design, test, and integrate complex components and assemblies; evaluate designs for effectiveness, cost (including cost/benefit analysis), reliability (risk analysis), safety, and compliance.
- Drive design reviews and technical decision‑making, ensuring system integration risks are identified early and mitigated through structured problem solving.
- Develop, execute, and evaluate fitness‑for‑use testing, product specifications, and process validation plans for complex generator systems and components.
- Utilize CAD and CAE tools (Creo) to develop system layouts, component designs, and detailed engineering drawings supporting integrated designs.
- Collaborate with manufacturing engineering, suppliers, and contract manufacturers to optimize generator designs for manufacturability, scalability, quality, and serviceability.
- Support program planning and execution by contributing to development schedules, cost estimates, design input tracking, and launch readiness activities.
- Lead root‑cause analysis and corrective actions for integration, performance, or quality issues identified during development, validation, or early production.
- Apply engineering judgment to balance technical performance, cost, risk, and schedule tradeoffs, making informed recommendations to program and functional leadership.
- Actively mentor and coach less experienced engineers, particularly in systems thinking, integration discipline, and design best practices.
- Use SAP and Change Request processes within the assigned functional area, supporting engineering data integrity, BOM management, and program execution processes.
