Mechanical / systems engineering

Senior Mechanical Engineer
Kanye is seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer focused on design and analysis of electromechanical actuation systems and components. You will drive the mechanical design, analysis, and testing of products to ensure they meet performance, safety, manufacturability, reliability, and certification requirements.
Major Responsibilities:

Perform trade studies between alternative actuator design concepts to determine optimal approach
Ensure designs meet weight, envelope, performance, manufacturability, and cost targets
Perform stress, fatigue, and modal analyses with hand calculations and FEA tools to verify designs under various loading conditions
Determine appropriate bearing arrangements and sizes for new product designs
Develop detailed 3D CAD models and engineering drawings for rotary and linear actuators
Conduct tolerance stack-up analyses on new and existing products
Collaborate with systems and electrical engineering to integrate motors, sensors, drives, and control units into designs
Plan and execute tests of components and subsystems, document procedures, and analyze data
Support root-cause investigations for field or test failures on new and legacy products
Serve as Integrated Product Team (IPT) lead for sub-system deliverables, coordinating with mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers
Facilitate technical design reviews with both the internal team and stakeholders
Mentor junior engineers and interns on best practices
Help program management to track milestones and risks in projects you support
Support review and development of department policies and procedures
