Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Job Title: Senior Mechanical Design Engineer- Electronic Test Automation

This role is 100% onsite at the location on the req

Schedule: 8-5/ 9-6 (with flex depending on business needs; 1 hour non-billable lunch; typically 40 hours per week with some potential OT depending on business needs)

Top Skills/Responsibilities:
Experience with electronics testing/probing/harnessing technologies like mass interconnect solutions (VPC), specialty probes (Ingun), etc

5+ years of relevant working experience designing modular mechanical hardware for test automation systems that range from R&D to high-volume manufacturing

Expert at using 3D CAD design software like Autodesk Inventor,, SolidWorks (most preferred), AutoCAD, ProE, etc

This role will design mechanical test systems for vehicle electronics. You’ll work on developing mechanical solutions for design characterization, validation, and manufacturing.

Responsibilities

Design modular and reusable mechanical fixtures for testing vehicle electronics. This will start with manual bench-top setups and will evolve to fully automated systems for volume production

Work with cross-functional engineering groups to define mechanical test requirements for electronics and drive design decisions that help with the testability of ECUs.

Design custom mechanical interfaces to connect to ECUs. This can range from pogo-pin connections to bed-of-nails style probing

Design rack-based test systems that reduce complexity and improve build time when replicating at scale

Create well documented diagrams, bills of materials, and standard operating procedures for test automation systems

Develop and release drawings, BOM and specifications.

Collaborate with internal teams and external vendors during purchasing, station build, integration and final commissioning

provide technical oversight to vendors for manufacturing of mechanical components and systems

Work with technicians to communicate requirements and ensure proper implementation

Qualifications

BS/MS or equivalent work experience in Mechanical Engineering or related fields

5+ years of relevant working experience designing modular mechanical hardware for test automation systems that range from R&D to high-volume manufacturing

Expert at using 3D CAD design software like Autodesk Inventor,, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, ProE, etc

Ability to read electrical circuits and schematics, navigating PCB layouts and understand manufacturer’s product data sheets

Experience working in the automotive, semiconductor, or aerospace industries

Experience with electronics testing/probing/harnessing technologies like mass interconnect solutions (VPC), specialty probes (Ingun), etc

Experience supporting deployment automated test equipment in manufacturing environments

Hands-on hardware integration experience with automated test equipment

Nice To Have

Familiarity with vehicle communication protocols (CAN, CANFD, DoIP, Automotive Ethernet, LIN, etc.)

Experience with automation instrumentation such as programmable power supplies, multiplexers, DMMs, signal analyzers, signal generators, multifunction devices (digital and analog)`
