- Collaborate with engineering, program management, and manufacturing teams to ensure alignment on design intent, timelines, and technical requirements.
- Prepare technical documentation, test reports, and presentation materials to support internal reviews and customer deliverables.
- Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives within the prototyping and testing workflows.
- Participate in team meetings, design discussions, and cross‑functional coordination activities in a fast‑paced, dynamic environment.
Requirements:
- Actively pursuing a Bachelor’s or master’s degree in mechanical engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or a related technical field.
- Foundational experience with CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, or similar).
- Familiarity with basic electrical and mechanical design principles; interest in battery systems or energy storage is a plus.
- Ability to interpret engineering drawings, test data, and technical specifications.
- Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with attention to detail in both design and testing tasks.
- Comfortable working hands‑on with prototypes, tools, and test equipment.
- Effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across disciplines.
- Self‑motivated, organized, and eager to learn in a highly technical environment.
Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (KSAs):
- Understanding of basic project lifecycle concepts including planning, scheduling, execution, monitoring, and closure in a cross-functional environment.
- Familiarity with product development stages, including design, prototyping, testing, and validation, particularly in hardware or electro-mechanical systems.
- Awareness of energy storage systems, battery pack architecture, or thermal management concepts is highly desirable but not required.
- Ability to track multiple workstreams, manage priorities, and maintain structured documentation to support on-time project execution.
- Strong ability to clearly communicate updates, capture meeting notes, and facilitate information flow between engineering and business stakeholders.
- Ability to work effectively across engineering, operations, and business teams to support alignment on project goals and deliverables.
- Proficiency or willingness to learn tools such as Excel, Jira, Smartsheet, or similar platforms for tracking project progress and milestones.
- Capacity to participate in engineering discussions, capture action items, and help translate technical inputs into actionable project tasks.
- Comfort with rapidly changing priorities, iterative design cycles, and hands-on prototyping environments typical of hardware development programs.
- Proactive mindset to identify gaps, follow up on deliverables, and drive tasks forward with minimal supervision while learning from senior team members.
