About the position

This is a direct engineering position with a manufacturer of electrical wire harnesses that supplies the automotive industry. This position supports customers in developing and launching new wire harness assemblies. The role is two-fold whereby the engineer supports the development of the wire harness as well as the initial manufacturing launch phases.

Responsibilities

  • Develop designs for new products that are reliable, cost effective, and easily manufactured.
  • Participate in feasibility studies to assure products are efficient and robust.
  • Assess new engineering projects for viability (design limitations, cost concerns, functionality and trade offs). Present these issues to the engineering team along with recommendations for resolution.
  • Provide innovation in the development and implementation of technologies, new ideas, products, processes and techniques.
  • Conduct or participate in design review meetings.
  • Estimate material/fabrication costs for new products and processes - execute product/process development to cost targets and communicate cost vs. performance conflicts early in the design.
  • Responsible to cascade project timing to purchasing, process engineering to ensure on time project completion.
  • Directs and coordinates manufacturing or building of prototype product or system.
  • Work with Purchasing, Outside Vendors and Internal Machine Shop as prototype parts are fabricated to ensure designs are manufacturable and easily inspected.
  • Organize BOM for prototype build, supervise RFQ process, and conduct (or supervise) prototype build.
  • Offer technical support via direct communication to sales, marketing and customers.
  • Ensure clear communication of meeting minutes including notes, assignments and highlights.
