The team you will be a part of

This role in summary

Your responsibilities will include

• Drive New Product Development / Cost & Quality projects for the refrigeration business (refrigerators, water, and air treatment) with a focus on structural components and systems
  
• Support and work for projects through all project phases (Concept / Development / Implementation)
  
• Solve problems and find reliable technical solutions for the applications
  
• Create ideas for new designs, cost reduction, and quality improvement projects
  
• Supporting lifecycle development of the product/product group
  
• Develop and capture knowledge required to deliver subsystem-level excellence through Design Guides, FMEA, DVP&R, A3’s, Tolerance Stack Ups, and other tools and documents.
  
• Cooperating with other functions and teams (marketing, design, manufacture eng., V&V eng.)
  
• Define subsystem requirements and validate them through simulation analysis and/or tests
  
• Supporting Product Specification based on released documentation and validated tests
  
• Support benchmarking activities, experimentation, and data analysis via statistical tools (6 Sigma)
  
• Support intellectual property creation: initiating and following up on patent analysis and identifying new ideas for patents
  
• Support CAD model development by submitting simulation requests with clear boundary condition definitions, and interpreting results to make necessary design modifications. Use of tolerance analysis to drive sensitivity in the simulation results
  
• Coordinate system integrators, build planners to prototype build plans to evaluate design concepts through physical lab testing

• Drawing experience and GD&T (Geometry Dimensioning & Tolerancing) application (tolerance definition and analysis),
  
• Experience in component/product development with 3D CAD modeling (Creo 7.0 is preferred), Windchill experience
  
• Background in fundamental physics principles, including understanding of mechanical systems, solid mechanics, material properties, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics.
  
• Knowledge of Design failure mode and effect analysis (DFMEA), 6 SIGMA tools, Requirements management
  
• Knowledge and working experience in injection molding and sheet metal forming processes
  
• Knowledge in tooling construction
  
• Knowledge in simulation analysis (Finite Element Analysis - Ansys / Moldflow)
  

• Analytical skills, experience in solving practical issues, and engaging cross-functional teams of multiple process partners to a consensus
