Collaborate with machinists, fabricators, and suppliers to produce custom parts. Troubleshoot mechanical builds and propose practical design improvements. · Testing & Data Collection Set up, instrument, and execute engineering tests under supervision or independently. Record, analyze, and summarize test data for engineering evaluation. Maintain lab and test equipment in good working order and ensure safe operating practices. Support root cause investigations and help develop corrective design actions based on test outcomes. · Cross-Functional Support Assist engineers in R&D experiments, product development, and validation testing. Support the transition from prototype to production by refining designs for manufacturability. Provide feedback on mechanical performance, assembly ergonomics, and test repeatability. Qualifications · Education: - A.S. degree or technical certification in Mechanical Design, Drafting, Mechanical Engineering Technology, or related field. · Experience: 3+ years in an R&D, prototype, or product development environment—preferably in medical devices, vacuum systems, or high-voltage equipment.
