• Utilize CAD software (Creo) to design multiple component and assembly options for product concepts.

• Accountable for investigating and develop ing complex switch gear architectures.

• Works independently, exercises latitude and judgment to develop designs with minimal supervision

• Perform mechanical analysis of mechanisms (tolerance, stress, deformation, kinematic)

• Manage the execution of verification & validation in laboratories and provides the analysis of results & reports to internal customers.

• Develop engineering records that conform to internal standards and support the development, implementation, and maintenance stages of the projects/products
• Experienced in formal Offer Creation Processes (OCP)
• Direct product design experience related to ANSI/IEEE Medium Voltage air and gas insulated Switchgear.
• Fulfills technical missions, with autonomy to propose/develop complex solutions in Medium Voltage air and gas insulated switch gear. May have hierarchical or functional responsibilities. May provide mentoring, instructions/assistance.
• If needed, manages the execution of verification & validation in laboratories and provides the analysis of results & reports to internal customers.
