Engineer II, R&D/Product Development Engineering

Responsible for product development of socket, high-speed connectors, and cable assembly solutions from market definition through production and release.
Work closely with the cross functional teams to convert VOC and convert to a TE design conceptualization and preliminary product specification.
Conceive concepts and perform feasibility studies.
Run mechanical simulations.
Make engineering evaluation/proposals.
Create detailed designs, including 2D/3D drawings, and perform DFMEA, and tolerance analyses.
Support prototype samples and validation.
Resolve product-related issues to closure.
Provide technical support to customers, sales, PM, and plant teams. Conduct necessary DFMEA, tests, engineering analysis, troubleshooting shooting and verification.
Work with global manufacturing resources, procurement, and outside suppliers to meet all TE technical, quality, and cost objectives.
Execute technical documentation to fully detail design drawings and requirements, engineering and product change notices, and design history files.
What your background should look like
Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent work experience.
Generally requires 5 years of relevant mechanical engineering work experience with electrical components, electrical devices, mechanical structure design, manufacturing tooling development (stamping, molding, assembly, plating), or manufacturing process development.
Knowledge in socket design, connector design, cable assembly design, or other relevant mechanical design and development, including but not limited to material selection, tolerance analysis, DFMEA, product qualification, etc.
