Mechanical Engineer for Construction Machinery You will be responsible for engineering new machinery systems and components as well as product maintenance . Your main focus will be on light compaction machinery but you will also have the opportunity to collaborate with other R&D teams globally. You provide ingenious and robust engineering solutions in all phases of the product development cycle.
You will be part of a global team of engineers representing mechatronics, mechanical, noise and vibration, testing and verification engineering competencies. You report functionally to the Engineering Manager.
Your Responsibilities
- New product development as well as product maintenance engineering for Construction Equipment
- Apply innovative problem solving skills to meet or exceed the requirements of our products to create added value for our customers
- Deliver robust mechanical design solutions that ensure safety and reliability of our products through all phases of the product´s lifecycle
- Deliver designs, concepts and detailed ideas of sub-systems assigned to you that are optimized for function, quality and cost
- Develop 3D CAD, engineering drawings and tolerance stacks for mechanical and electrical components and geometry assurance of machine assemblies
- Ensure that design solutions meet product specifications and functional requirements (performance, reliability, DFM, cost and serviceability, compliance with international regulatory standards e.g. IEC, UL and EMC)
- Understand and apply engineering analysis tools such as FEA, CFD, CAE and hand calculations to develop concepts and validate designs.
- Build prototypes and testing of prototypes to validate functions
- Be able to communicate clearly and effectively the results and project status between all relevant team members
