Mechanical development engineer vs senior mechanical engineer

Differences between mechanical development engineer and senior mechanical engineer duties and responsibilities

Mechanical development engineer example responsibilities.

• Develop and manage the first BOM and release management process for communicating and tracking build changes/status with global factories.
• Manage design control including FMEA risk analysis, surgeon clinical input documentation, design verification and validation activities.
• Verify designs and concepts by testing finish product and system capabilities using computer base FEA , 3D printing/component prototyping.
• Specialize in product development services utilizing SolidWorks.
• Design and validate 3D-2D parts, manufacturing drawings, assemblies, BOM using SolidWorks.
• Compose and implement an automate MATLAB computing script to improve data processing time and efficiency.

Senior mechanical engineer example responsibilities.

• Create DFMEA documents to help manage risks and improve initial quality.
• Set up and manage PCB manufacturing including all chemical baths, lasers, and exposure equipment.
• Restructure VHDL code and chip/module hierarchy to achieve timing goals for the dual cache controller and the chip.
• Achieve timely convergence of complex designs by building RTL models from validation area and integrating them, before official model release.
• Lead FPGA development of key digital communication component used in successful demonstration of spacecraft radio link.
• Provide mechanical design and sustaining engineering expertise to troubleshoot manufacturing defect trends and achieve a more robust and producible product.
