Responsibilities:

  • Work with hardware engineering and software leadership to develop and implement novel design engineering software strategies that enhance productivity, reduce cycle times, and improve design quality.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment of the design engineering tools roadmap with overall business objectives.
  • Monitor industry trends and best practices to keep our hardware design processes at the cutting edge.
  • Drive adoption of CAD, PLM, PDM, and related engineering software solutions across the company, and own the feedback loop between the users and the developers.
  • Partner with design engineers to understand workflow pain points and translate them into actionable improvements in tools, templates, and automation.
  • Define and enforce CAD/PLM standards, data governance, and best practices across hardware engineering teams.
  • Create and maintain comprehensive documentation of design engineering software standard instructions and best practices.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, User Experience Design, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in a hardware design engineering environment, including familiarity with CAD (e.g., NX, SolidWorks, Creo, CATIA), PLM, and PDM systems and how they interface with each other and with downstream operations.
  • High sense of user empathy and the ability to manage and communicate with stakeholders.
  • Ability to quickly understand current design engineering workflows and potential issues across the product development lifecycle, and can speak the language.
  • Strength working with hardware engineering leadership to conceptualize solutions and gain / understand requirements.
