HOW YOU CAN MAKE AN IMPACT
As a Mechanical Engineer - Coatings and Surfaces, you will be a viable member of an international team focused on creating and reviewing efficient designs for state-of-the-art passenger trains, managing complex interfaces and integration of various systems.
Key Activities
• Write and develop technical specifications
• Specify the surface treatment of parts to meet both functional and customer requirements
• Specialize in surface treatment and corrosion protection techniques and processes
• Create and review coating specifications for various types of components and substrate materials
• Design products using CAD, considering all applicable standards and regulations
• Consult with engineering and manufacturing teams to ensure that designs are feasible
• Review and release of technical drawings
• Calculate factors like tolerance, dimensions, as well as thermal and structural analysis
HOW YOU WILL CONTRIBUTE
• BS or MS degree from an ABET-accredited program in Mechanical or Chemical Engineering, or equivalent• Working knowledge of 3D CAD and PLM software (Catia V5 & SmarTeam PLM experience is a plus)
• Working knowledge of fundamental principles defining wetting, adhesion, cohesion and corrosion
• Desire to thrive in a team environment
• Self-motivated attitude with strong initiative
• Level-I (0-2), II (2-5), III (5-8), IV (8-10) or Sr. (10+) years design-related experience in areas such as: paint and surface treatments, corrosion protection, sheet metal, GFRP / composites, machined parts, assemblies
• Excellent problem-solving skills
• Excellent technical writing and verbal communication skills
• Familiarity with mechanisms of corrosion and prevention / mitigation strategies
• Familiarity with various common paint and surface treatment chemistries, their benefits, and their limitations
• Willingness to develop and deepen understanding of surface treatments used in the passenger rail industry
• Understanding of coating quality testing procedures, and their corresponding standards is a plus
