High level of understanding of magnetic with hands on product problem solving with hands on experience
Expect to spend 40% to 50% time on lab testing
Lead root-cause analysis for hydraulic performance or reliability issues.
4. Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work with mechanical, electrical, controls, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless system integration.
Collaborate with suppliers for component selection, feasibility discussions, and technical assessments.
Support sourcing and procurement activities with technical expertise.
5. Documentation & Compliance
Create and maintain technical documentation: design reports, test reports, DFMEA & PFMEA
Ensure hydraulic systems comply with relevant industry standards (ISO, SAE, CE, ASME, etc.)
Support product safety evaluations and risk assessments.
6. Continuous Improvement & Innovation
Drive hydraulic system optimization for efficiency, cost, robustness, and manufacturability.
Evaluate and implement new technologies (e.g., electro-hydraulics, smart valves, advanced filtration, energy-saving hydraulic systems).
Support sustainability initiatives such as reduced energy consumption or eco-friendly fluids.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in mechanical engineering or related field (Master’s preferred).
8–12 years of experience in hydraulic systems design and development.
Strong knowledge of hydraulic components, circuits, and fluid power principles.
Proficiency in CAD tools (Creo, SolidWorks, Catia)
Experience with system controls involving electro-hydraulics (nice to have).
