• Own product or sub-product design within development projects, defining design strategies and schedules.
• Perform design risk analyses and craft mitigation plans; collaborate with the project manager to continuously assess project risks.
• Own and document the design process per Radiall's development procedures.
• Carry out advanced simulations, calculations, and tolerance analyses to validate performance.
• Develop detailed CAD models, drawings, and documentation across all development phases.
• Innovate and adapt designs to meet evolving customer and manufacturing requirements for complex programs.
• Implement design-to-cost strategies throughout the product lifecycle.
• Propose and implement design changes to enhance performance, reliability, or manufacturability.
• Collaborate with manufacturing engineering to define production methods, repair procedures, and process improvements.
• Assess customer specifications for compliance and implement corrective design actions as required.
• Coordinate with Sales, Quality, and Production to ensure project alignment and customer satisfaction.
• Review customer specifications for technical feasibility and prepare supporting documentation and quotes.
• Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers and designers as needed.
