** by collaborating with systems, software, hardware, testing, and product teams to ensure controls solutions integrate effectively across the broader system.

** Build technical influence and ownership
** by independently executing projects, coordinating testing activities, supporting technicians and team members, and applying systems thinking to solve increasingly complex engineering challenges.

** To be successful in this role you will need the following:*
* ** Build deep technical expertise in controls, mechatronics, and systems engineering
** by understanding how hardware, software, sensors, actuators, and open/closed-loop control strategies interact to deliver reliable and optimized product performance.

** Apply rigorous, data-driven problem-solving and validation methods
** by leveraging statistical analysis, modeling, simulation, verification, and testing to identify root causes, mitigate failure modes, and make sound engineering decisions.

** Master requirements management and technical communication
** by translating stakeholder needs into clear, verifiable requirements, maintaining accurate technical documentation, and effectively communicating complex concepts across diverse audiences.

** Drive results through collaboration, continuous learning, and sound judgment
** by partnering across functions, embracing diverse perspectives, making timely decisions, and continuously expanding your technical and professional capabilities to solve increasingly complex engineering challenges.
