Z-2402 | Design Engineer

Mechanical Engineer

1) Ability to capture and specify the design requirements 2) Research concept ideas using mathematical modelling to work out whether new developments and innovations would work and be cost effective 3) Analyze the Engineering and Project input to interrogate it, reach an agreement and integrate it formally in a Design solution Produce design ideas, based on research, into technical plans for prototypes using computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-assisted engineering (CAE) software 4) Analyses the design proposals and the technical information to identify the issues arising during product development, defining, and implementing adequate solutions to reach a feasible proposal with a high form and aesthetic quality 5)Attend design reviews to present design ideas and to discuss and critique alternative design solutions 6) Cost proposals 7) Carry out simulations of products for new and prototype projects using inhouse software for the customer and provide support and feedback on design 8) Analyse and manage multiple design related issues to identify root cause 9) Modify designs based on the analysis to re-test and analyze until design meets specification requirements 10) Make design changes on existing products 11) Track design changes 12) Control of Bill of Materials (BoM), CAD Models and Engineering Drawings 13) Keep up with current and developing engineering trends 14) Undertake special projects as required 15) Contribute to continuous improvement activities 16) Quality control of work by appropriate reviews 17) Support process improvement activities 18) Support technical staff 19) Write reports and present progress at project meetings and to clients 20) Achieve goals within budget 21) Conduct benchmarking studies to determine best practices/designs and future trends 22) Attend various meetings and action/communicate instructions 23) Make presentations 24) Undertake continuous training and development 25) Independently determine approach and assigned tasks
