• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and teamwork skills with the ability to work in a fast-paced PD Fixture Development/NPI environment

*Design and develop precision fixtures, tooling, and mechanical mechanisms for manufacturing, assembly, inspection, testing, teardown, and automation.
* Create 3D models, 2D manufacturing drawings, and BOMs using Siemens NX (UG NX).
* Apply GD&T, tolerance stack-up analysis, DFM, DFA, and Poka-Yoke principles to achieve robust and manufacturable designs.
* Design mechanisms incorporating springs, bearings, linear guides, clamps, locating features, pneumatic, and vacuum systems.
* Perform fixture validation through engineering trials, Gauge R&R, DOE, and Cp/Cpk studies to ensure accuracy, repeatability, and process capability.
* Conduct design reviews, DFMEA/PFMEA, and risk assessments to identify and mitigate potential failure modes.
* Support prototype builds, production trials, new product introduction (NPI), and engineering change implementation (ECO/ECN).
* Troubleshoot fixture and process issues using structured root cause analysis (5 Why, Fishbone, and 8D) and implement corrective actions.
* Collaborate with Product Design, Manufacturing, Quality, Automation, Industrial Engineering, and suppliers to deliver production-ready solutions.
* Drive continuous improvement by optimizing fixture performance, cycle time, quality, reliability, standardization, and cost.
* Prepare and maintain engineering drawings, design specifications, validation reports, SOPs, assembly instructions, BOMs, and technical documentation.
