PRINCIPLE RESPONSIBILITIES
New product development: Lead end to end design of instrumentation and control products (such as Transducers/Transmitters, and electronic switches) from concept to successful launch, meeting delivery schedule, cost and quality requirements, in line with a structured stage gate process
o Architectural design: develop architectural options to meet the concept/market needs
o Prototype development: Develop sub-system and system level prototypes across hardware, firmware and software modules
o Integration: Ensure that the packaging of the electronics components is in accordance with the mechanical design, resulting in a functional system
o Testing & troubleshooting: Diagnose hardware/software issues through lab testing and conduct thorough functional testing to meet specifications and certification requirements
o Validation Testing: Plan and perform EMC, Climatic, Vibration, Shock, functional, qualification and validation tests
o Agency Certification: Plan and perform testing for hazardous locations eg. Explosion proof , Intrinsic safety etc.
Sustaining Engineering:
o Lead engineering development of simple as well as complex modification projects
o Develop new ideas and concepts for value engineering and productivity
o Estimate and plan costs and time to design and manufacture a product design
o Engage with a sense of urgency in addressing customer quality issues
o Support production floor with product structure and technical specific inquiries
o Develop and validate design solutions to meet customer applications
Leadership: Lead project team for a complete project, which generally involves directing the work of others and closely working with engineering resources in Germany and/or India design centers.
Communication: Interface as required with other disciplines including operations, quality assurance, purchasing to resolve problems and achieve required objectives. Communicate effectively with Project and Principal Engineers, senior management, vendors, certification agencies and customers both orally and in writing
