About the role
- Perform Mechanical FEA Simulations (i.e., Drop Testing, Battery Contact Bend Constraints, Plastic Snap Fits, and other mechanical testing).
- Lead the design and development of various Resideo products including smoke sensor enclosures and airflow systems, ensuring optimal performance in detecting smoke particles and minimizing false alarms.
- Conduct smoke and airflow simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to analyze and optimize sensor enclosure designs for efficient smoke detection and airflow patterns.
- Collaborate with electronics engineers to integrate sensor components into the mechanical design, optimizing placement and alignment for maximum sensitivity and reliability.
- Design and prototype sensor enclosures using CAD software, considering factors such as material selection, manufacturability, and cost-effectiveness.
- Conduct testing and validation of sensor enclosures and airflow systems, analyzing performance metrics and addressing any issues or deficiencies through iterative refinement and optimization.
- Drive innovation in smoke sensor technology through research, experimentation, and evaluation of emerging technologies and industry trends.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, with a focus on product development and/or smoke sensor design
- Experience with mechanical simulation software such as ANSYS
- Proficiency in CAD software such as SolidWorks, or Creo for 3D modeling and design
- Proficiency in 2D drawings, critical-to-function dimensions, and tolerance stacks
Benefits
- Medical, Dental, Vision insurance
- 401K
- Generous vacation time that can be scheduled with manager approval based on business priorities and personal needs, without pre-set maximums
