- Lead projects through problem definition, conceptual design, detailed design, prototyping, testing, implementation, and process reviews.
- Develop and manage parametric 3D designs, engineering models, technical drawings, and Bills of Quantities (BOQs).
- Create mathematical and engineering models incorporating variables, constraints, alternatives, and performance requirements.
- Support finite element analysis activities including static, dynamic, thermal, flow, and non-linear simulations.
- Prepare and maintain detailed technical documentation, drawings, bills of materials, specifications, and engineering reports.
- Implement quality systems and engineering methodologies including DFMEA, design reviews, risk assessments, quality planning, and non-conformance management.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams during equipment realization, installation, commissioning, start-up, validation, and industrial deployment phases.
- Design and validate hydraulic and pneumatic systems to ensure machinery functionality and operational performance.
- Create 3D animations, technical presentations, engineering reports, and project documentation to communicate design concepts and results.
- Lead equipment homologation, qualification, industrial validation, and robustness assessments.
- Provide technical mentoring and guidance to less experienced engineers and engineering team members.
Candidate Profile
