This role performs research, design, and development in such areas as mechanical, thermodynamic, and/or heat transfer for production, transmission, measurement, and use of energy. Applies research to the planning, design, development, and testing of mechanical and/or electromechanical products, systems, instruments, controls, engines, and/or machines.

Responsibilities:

* Creates designs by analyzing product or equipment specifications, performance requirements, and existing manufacturing capabilities. Performs moderately complex design, fabrication, modification, and evaluation of mechanical, subsystems, and systems by applying engineering principals and established analytical tools. May develop detailed designs by using sketches and descriptive transfer functions provided by others.
* Determines feasibility of designing or modifying new or existing products considering technical and economic factors, available resources, time constraints, and company planning, by performing detailed trade studies, applying analytical methods, and creating solutions which are defined and can be fully implemented.
* Investigates pertinent design factors such as ease of manufacture, availability of materials and equipment, interchangeability, replaceability, strength-weight efficiency, contractual specification requirements, cost-defining recommendations, and change proposals to meet project milestones and budgetary constraints.
* Prepares or directs preparation of product or system layouts, detailed drawings, assembly drawings, and schematics by coordinating with designers or drafters, interpreting customer and functional requirements, or by using computer-aided design tools and following industry and/or military drawing standards. Develops data and may make preliminary layouts, sketches, notes, and documentation in response to customer proposal requests.
* Reviews drawings and layouts to ensure clarity, completeness, form, fit, function, and conformity to standards, procedures, and specifications. Identifies design errors, omissions, and other deficiencies, and recommends revisions and improvements to engineers or other designers.
* Conducts analyses and/or tests pertaining to the development of new designs, methods, materials or processes and completes required documentation by applying engineering principles and company standards, and generating reports, procedures, or change proposals.
* Provides technical information which may affect long range plant and product engineering planning by researching manufacturing or processing techniques, materials, properties, and process advantages and limitations.
* Communicates with customers on TTS product capabilities and to clarify customers’ technical requirements. Supports writing technical proposals for customers by reviewing and interpreting specifications and requirements. Prepares various reports by analyzing and summarizing data and works closely with Project Managers to meet performance and cost milestones.

* Practical knowledge of mechanical, packaging, and/or engineering principles, theories, concepts, and techniques, industry practices, regulations, and policies.
* Ability to apply standard practices and techniques in specific situations, adjust and correlate data, recognize discrepancies in results, and follow operations through a series of related detailed steps or processes.
* Ability to define problems, collect data, establish facts, and draw valid conclusions.
* Familiarity of drawing practices, tolerancing and use of computer-aided design and basic engineering analysis tools.
* Ability to work on a variety of problems of moderate scope and complexity where analysis of the situation or data requires a review of identifiable factors and analysis of impact, and problem resolution requires thorough evaluation of alternatives that may require originality or ingenuity.
* Understanding of fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, kinematics, or stress analysis;
* Basic understanding of materials selection and manufacturing methods.
* Ability to work within general work objectives regarding projects and team goals and use full discretion in selecting procedures and techniques that should be applied.
* Ability to effectively apply continuous improvement principles and techniques to design and manufacturing areas. Familiarity of other related engineering and technical areas.
