• Work on multiple projects simultaneously, supporting team members to achieve targets.
• Demonstrate a passion for innovation, research, and development in electromechanical systems.
• Create and present concept designs for actuation and control solutions, converting ideas into practical designs.
• Act as a technical point of contact for site issues and provide high-level support to customers and the Sales team.
• Support engagement with customers to gain market insights and support new product development.
• Proficient in 3D CAD (preferably Creo/Pro Engineer) and capable of working with 2D and legacy data systems.
• Utilize controls-based systems and architecture to design, implement, and validate integrated solutions for HVAC applications.
• Apply production engineering knowledge for components such as castings, machined parts, and plastic moldings.
• Participate in DFM, DFMEA and PFMEA reviews, and other associated tools included within IATF 16949, to ensure robust design processes.
• Hands-on involvement in test program planning and execution with Test Technicians, including prototype evaluation and performance validation.
• Manage project files to support the NPD stage-gate process.
• Recommend and implement improvements in test equipment and processes to enhance development efficiency and data quality.
• Develop control logic for actuator and valve systems to ensure optimal performance and integration with BMS.
• Establish customer requirements and translate them into technical specifications.

Qualifications/Experience/Training:
