- Have working knowledge of and ability to implement OTS hardware (e.g. toggle clamps, spring plungers, shoulder screws, dowel pins, gears, etc) and automation equipment (e.g. motors, linear actuators, air cylinders, sensors, vision systems, PLCs, etc) into new equipment designs
- Utilize working knowledge and experience to design for the following manufacturing processes (in order of frequency): machining, 3D printing, sheetmetal and/or weldments, & plastic injection molding
- Basic engineering analyses of parts, assemblies, and systems
- Bench top testing & assembly of prototype parts and assemblies
- Project-specific R&D
