Leads mechanical design efforts on cross functional project team. Oversees a variety of project engineering and production support tasks. Uses a working knowledge of design engineering fundamentals, SolidWorks MCAD and lean methods to optimize the design process to bring innovative products to market.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS & RESPONSIBILITIES

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential function satisfactorily:

• Design, prototype, test, and support the on-going production of electromechanical access control products.
• Apply FEA analysis to validate designs prior to prototyping.
• Work independently and with cross functional teams to provide design solutions that address expressed and implied (through industry knowledge) product requirements.
• Visualize and communicate solutions through design and prototyping.
• Prepare formal reports on product status and testing results for senior staff.
• Apply appropriate tolerances for parts within assemblies to ensure it is producible and provides for a reliable, interchangeable assembly.
• Apply fundamental engineering principles to design challenges while being aware of the implications of cost, schedule and manufacturability of the product.
• Maintain an awareness of changes in the industry and in the development of components that may assist future design activities.
• Apply basic, industry drafting standards and geometric dimensioning and tolerance methods (e.g. ASME Y14.5).
• Possess knowledge of electrical and electronics products, including Ohm's Law, Voltage, Current, and a basic understanding of power supply circuitry.
• Have basic electronic skills, such as reading schematics and PCB layouts, using a multi-meter and scope, and troubleshooting circuit boards.  SolidWorks Electrical capability is required. 

Individuals who need reasonable accommodation to enable them to perform these essential functions should discuss their needs with Human Resources.  EMS will provide reasonable accommodations to such individuals unless doing so would impose an undue hardship on EMS or the individual is a direct threat.
