Role summary: To create innovative and sustainable lighting product design solutions; a key role delivering project and client-specific lighting solutions.
Department: Custom Made Design Team
Purpose of the Position:
Working closely with the Design Manager to create innovative, robust, and sustainable design solutions following best engineering design principles. Key to delivering project and client-specific lighting solutions that meet and exceed customer needs.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Complete medium scale complex projects in strict adherence to the requirements of the SPD Gate process.
2. Design and develop a product/solution that meets all aspects of the project specification within the required timescale.
3. Demonstrate clear understanding and effectively communicate the rationale behind project specifications, challenging requirements where necessary.
4. Deliver effective and commercially viable design solutions with the help of FMEA ensuring the safety and reliability of all products.
5. Accurately complete all relevant documentation to support all design solutions.
6. Use appropriate design tools (i.e., sketches, hand-made models, prototypes, and 3D CAD) to help communicate solutions clearly and efficiently.
7. Create accurate CAD, ERP, and PLM data following best practice.
8. Create accurate costed bill of materials for all new product design.
9. Produce production-capable components and assemblies, performing research on product technologies and structures to implement into design concepts.
Specific Skill Requirements:
Education / Technical Skills:
1. A degree in a relevant engineering or science discipline or equivalent.
2. +2 years industry experience delivering products from concept to customer, delivering robust design solutions on time, to specification, and within cost and budget constraints.
3. Experience of creating 3D CAD following best practice guidelines, engineering drawings, and tolerance stacks for mechanical/electrical components and assemblies along with test rigs and assembly jigs.
4. Good level of understanding of Microsoft Office, namely Excel and PowerPoint.
5. Experience of applying practical tools (sketch, calculations, handmade, 3D prototypes) to create fit-for-purpose prototypes for test purposes and review.
6. Sound understanding of mechanical and physical principles.
7. Ability to drive development of products and technologies through prototyping and testing.
8. Understanding and practical application of design wheel/design processes.
9. Good knowledge and understanding of multiple tooling and manufacturing techniques.
10. Experience using Solid Edge, Solid Works, and ideally Teamcenter.
11. Experience developing products within the lighting industry.
