Precision Polymer Engineering LLC, part of IDEX Corporation, is seeking to evaluate, prepare, and implement designs, processes, and equipment to meet or exceed the requirements of new product projects and other assigned projects, focusing on high-performance, niche elastomer seals for critical applications.
Requirements
- Requires strong knowledge necessary to perform the job function such as an understanding of the engineering change order process (ECR/ECO), engineering prints, DFx (Design for Excellence) engineering principles, engineering specification waiver process, manufacturability analysis, product structure, bill of materials and root cause analysis.
- Demonstrable experience of 3D CAD software such as Solidworks.
- Proficient in understanding and interpreting engineering prints including GD&T.
- Mould tool, jigs, fixture design an advantage.
- Experience with polymer, elastomers and plastics processing a plus
- Experience with ERP system such as JDE for modules like building BoM, product routings, tooling setups etc
- Commercially aware and competent user of stage/gate process
Responsibilities
- Evaluate, prepare and implement designs, processes and equipment in order to meet or exceed the requirements of the new product projects and or other projects as-assigned.
- Perform contract review at start of the project, generate full specification and design in-order to develop new product.
- Identify process and technology gaps and integrate into new and/or existing product or process platforms.
- Determines root cause analysis for issues that arise during assembly and/or test of systems/products/processes; provides long term corrective action.
- Leads solution generating activities in order to provide fit for purpose designs, equipment, tooling and processes includes performing DOE and or experimentation.
- Using 3D CAD software, prepare full engineering design drawings to enable successful Proof of concept (POC) and handover to the operations team.
- Perform in-depth design review of the drawings through review and approval process.
Other
- Plan and drive projects to ensure in-scope, on-time and on-cost development and delivery.
- Manages, leads and takes full responsibility of the projects from Explore to Implementation stage of the project.
- Hands-on approach, data collection and analysis, writing standard operating procedure (SOP), building Inspection test plans (ITP), champions issue resolution including other product development activities.
- Liaise and communicate with internal and external customers to ensure full clarity of project status.
- Willing to travel per business needs on short or long trips.
