R&D Designers

JOB PURPOSE

The Design engineer creates the optimal product concept, taking into account integral architecture

requirements, and takes care that it is transformed into the main design (CAD). As core project team

member, he/she is responsible for involving and guiding all development-related activities in the ITM

projects. For doing so, he/she is in the lead of the development project team. So as regards content the

design engineer is responsible on product/system level wrt creation of overall solutions in principle,

elaboration of concepts, criteria based evaluation of concepts (technical and economical), scenario

creation (recommendations to business), documentation of development process; this refers to a) task

clarification, b) technical planning as contribution for integral/detailed planning, c) requirements

management, d) system analysis/synthesis (responsible for the entire system incl. all objects and

interfaces), e) exploration of integral architecture variants and f) derivation of optimal/balanced concepts;

KEY RESPONSIBILITY AREA

1. To take technical leadership role in delivering the product as per the specified requirements and

within the target cost, time, quality and performance.

2. To define the technical product concept/product architecture (technical solutions, modules

and interfaces, also called conceptual design) taking into account all relevant requirements from

industrial design, development and supply chain.

3. To define the evaluation criteria, evaluate the concepts and documents both the progress as

well as the final concept choice. Also accountable for the concept quality, referring to the

robustness and proper dimensioning and balancing of the implemented solutions.

4. Responsible for quality of the main design in the aspect of feasibility and robustness measured with

attendant quality tools. e.g. DFMEA, PFMEA, tolerance analysis, DFA, DFS, CTQ.

5. To create CAD design from the aesthetics input and deliver 3D and 2D Drawings at different

stage of the project as per the project's need.

6. To create and deliver the product BOM for costing and production purposes
