R&D/PRODUCT DVL ENGINEER II

Job Overview

TE Connectivity s R&D/Product Development Engineering Teams conceive original ideas for new products, introduce them into practice. They are responsible for product development, and qualification from market definition through production and release; assist in the qualification of suppliers for new products to ensure suppliers deliver quality parts, materials, and services for new or improved manufacturing processes; conduct feasibility studies, testing on new and modified designs; direct and support detailed design, testing, prototype fabrication and manufacturing ramp. The R&D/Product Development Engineering Teams provide all required product documentation including, but not limited to, Solid Model, 2D/3D production drawings, product specifications, and testing requirements. They create and modify detailed drawings and drafting or conceptual models from layouts, rough sketches or notes and contribute to design modifications to facilitate manufacturing operation or quality of product. Typical fields of expertise include: materials, mechanics and systems, electrical, optics, chemistry, software, automation systems, packaging, testing and measurement, and manufacturing of electrical, mechanical and electronic components, products, and their integration into systems.

Responsibilities

• Responsible for the mechanical design of Connectors based on customer requirements for Industrial and Commercial Transportation applications.
• Responsible to carry out detailed mechanical design work including 3D modelling, Proposal /detail drawings for costing/production, and Initiating simulation (e.g. thermal & stress).
• Responsible for choosing standard parts, features, and material as per internal guidelines which would meet the internal / customer target process and cost.
• Responsible for preparing and presenting design reviews per manufacturability, updating design per suggestion and keeping record.
• Responsible for carrying out design change requests in a timely manner.
