Documentation: Expand and improve design information procedures and practices, issuing all applicable technical documentation. Technical Analysis & Design Approval Design Control: Review and approve design layouts and associated manufacturing drawings for all assigned projects and shop orders. Complex Calculations: Perform advanced calculations using both analytical and computer-based methods (including finite-element analysis (FEA) and solids modeling). Programming & Modeling: Utilize and/or develop computer programs to resolve engineering problems, including commercial software and self-designed programs (e.g., FORTRAN, BASIC, C++). Analysis Discernment: Discern when to apply basic versus detailed analyses for various engineering challenges. Innovation & Strategic Contribution Technical Innovation: Provide original ideas and innovation; collaborate with the corporate patent department on new ideas and patent applications. Knowledge Sharing: Occasionally submit technical papers for publication and provide regular status updates and reports to supervision. Competitive Intelligence: Institute new programs based on state-of-the-art technology and application processes to maintain market competitiveness.
