We are inviting suitably qualified candidates for the following position in our Power Tools Measuring Tools Division - responsible for the development of levelling tools for private and professional users.

Job Description

1. Mechanical Design & Precision Engineering

• Precision Product Design: Define product layouts and control assemblies; design high-precision mechanical components and assemblies using Pro-Engineer (Creo) 3D modeling and 2D drafting according to professional standards.
• Calibration & Fixture Development: Design sophisticated fixtures and calibration processes tailored for high-precision mechanical assemblies.
• Engineering Verification: Conduct independent mechanical analysis using scientific and mathematical approaches (including Tolerance Stack-up Analysis, FEM/CAE simulations, DOE, and physical prototyping) to validate design performance.

2. Design Review Leadership & Plastic Expertise

• Design Review Leadership: Lead rigorous, comprehensive mechanical design reviews across project gates to ensure structural integrity, high precision, and Design for Manufacturing/Assembly (DFM/DFA).
• Expertise in plastic design: Serve as the in-house technical authority on plastic material selection, part design, tooling architecture, and injection molding process optimization for high-precision tools.
• Root Cause & Defect Analysis: Take initiative in leading problem-solving activities to diagnose and resolve complex technical issues, with a strong focus on plastic component defects and structural failures.
• Technical Mentorship: Act as a mentor for mechanical engineers, sharing best practices in plastic DOM, tooling design, and systematic design review methods.

3. Cross-Functional Execution & Production Support

• Project Ownership (TTM): Serve as the primary Mechanical Engineering representative within cross-functional project teams, taking co-ownership of Time-To-Market (TTM), project progress, quality standards, and BOM cost control.
• Documentation & Compliance: Create and maintain robust engineering documentation required for gate approval reviews (BOM, component specs, DFMEA, test reports) and support product compliance certification.
• Supplier & Production Support: Qualify first-article samples from suppliers, participate in pilot production runs, and support series production by resolving mass production "pop-up" issues and driving manufacturing KPI improvements.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Mechatronics Engineering, or Applied Science.
• Minimum of 6 years of experience in high-precision mechanical product design, with a proven track record of leading formal mechanical design reviews.
• Expert-Level Plastics Knowledge: Deep technical understanding of plastic molding processes, tooling design, plastic material properties, performance optimization, and DFM for precision instruments.
• High-Precision Engineering: Demonstrated expertise in precision CAD modeling (Pro-E/Creo), engineering drafting standards, and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
• Broad Manufacturing Awareness: Working knowledge of optical components, die casting, metal stamping, and metal fabrication processes is preferred.
• Analytical Problem Solver: Proven capability in solving tough technical challenges using analytical tools (FEM, MATLAB, FMEA, Tolerance Analysis, DOE).
• Innovative & Solution-Oriented: Demonstrated ability to generate novel design concepts, construct prototypes for proof-of-concept (PoC), and apply new technologies.
• Process Knowledge: Familiarity with stage-gate product development cycles and structured project management principles.
• Willingness to travel and regularly stay at the Dongguan plant based on project and production needs.

Additional Information
