Mechatronics engineer vs senior mechanical engineer

Differences between mechatronics engineer and senior mechanical engineer duties and responsibilities

Mechatronics engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage engineering standards, engineering specifications, NEC, NFPA, and scheduling projects.
• Redesign ovens to take advantage of laser cutter for jig-less production using tab and slot method.
• Provide mechanical design and sustaining engineering expertise to troubleshoot manufacturing defect trends and achieve a more robust and producible product.
• Implement PID cruise control and precision direction control in LabVIEW.
• Construct Simulink control architecture for brake control, and own the design control for the research project.
• Install and repair servo and variable frequency drives and PLC s as well as programming, debugging, and enhancements.

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.
