Senior Mechanical Engineer

General Information

Your Tasks

You act as a technical expert for XYZ transfer systems, automated handling technologies, flexible feeding systems, as well as precise pick-and-place mechanisms including customer-specific end effectors and grippers.
You accompany and support colleagues in mechatronic product development and in innovation projects.
You establish best practices, design concepts and modular standards across various projects.
You develop reusable mechatronic modules and standardized architectures.
You undertake the design of drive and motion components such as actuators, motors and pneumatic components.
You perform FEA and kinematics simulations to optimize cycle times, load limits and dynamic system behavior.
You plan, calculate and process technical work packages taking into account effort, budget and deadlines.
You define technical decision-making processes and identify potential project deviations early on.
You perform 1D and 3D tolerance analyses as well as root cause analyses.
You accompany physical prototype tests and present data-based optimization and redesign solutions.
You create, check and maintain technical documentation taking into account regulatory requirements.
You work closely with various internal and external interfaces from production, purchasing, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, service and supplier management.
