Aachen

IKT-Branche

Essential Functions

  • Good understanding and experience with the development of mechanical design, manufacturing technologies, and embedding of electro-mechanical systems which may include vision systems, sensors, motors, enclosures, mounts and/or the integration of illumination, imager optics and electronics.
  • Designs of parts and small sub-systems.
  • Performance tests to check if the design meets specifications.
  • Model interfaces with electronic and optical systems. Model thermal properties of the mounts and their interfaces. Model the design response to environmental shock and vibration.
  • Definition of requirements and specifications for systems and components.
  • Creation of drawings and specifications for optical and mechanical parts.
  • Hands-on mentality.

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

  • Actively involved in engineering discussions. Ability to pro-actively communicate clearly, both orally and in writing in order to be actively involved in cross-functional discussions.
  • Solid problem-solving skills for mechanical problems on a (sub-)system level. Strong attention to detail with the ability to debug, root cause, qualify, and modify electro-mechanical assemblies. Can effectively implement when given design direction.
  • Knowledge of – or experience with mechanical production technologies, particularly injection molding, die casting, vacuum forming
  • Possess strong time management and organizational skills with the ability to multitask multiple projects with quality and efficiency in a dynamic and fast-moving industry.
