• Support resolution of technical problems in the lab or in the production line.
• Support evaluation and resolution of escapes and field issues reported by customers.
• Generate digital bills of material — including sub-assemblies, fasteners, tooling, and hardware — accurately based on design requirements.
• Develop procedures for parts and systems, such as Acceptance Test Procedures, Qualification Test Procedures and Reports, Qualification by Analysis & Similarity Reports, etc.
• Generate 3D models and 2D drawings of parts and assemblies using both ANSI and ASME Y14 geometric dimensioning & tolerancing and other best practices.
• Initiate and support drawing changes (ECNs, impact assessments, material dispositions)
• Support production with manufacturing issues, supplier issues, quality issues, etc. that affect the cable assembly drawings.
• Prepare labor and material cost estimates for new assemblies. Identify non-recurring engineering (NRE) and equipment needs.
