Job Description

The mechanical design engineer will develop mechanical systems, components, sub-assemblies and thermal solutions for 5G active antenna and radio products.  This includes weather-proof die cast and sheet metal enclosures, cable interfaces, thermal design, and mounting systems.

Responsibilities include

• Development of SolidWorks models of enclosure, PCBAs, wiring, interfacing, hardware, and spatially sensitive components
• Perform detailed thermal design and analysis using heat load and dissipation models and design improvements including high performance free-air convection thermal management
• Design or propose changes as needed to improve form, fit or function of the assembly such as mechanical interferences, field reliability, tolerance studies, product weight
• Execute stress models on mechanical design including wind and solar loading
• Design suitable assembly and test fixtures for sub-assemblies capable of being used in high-volume test production environment
• Create and update design documentation packages to be used by product engineers and contract manufacturers
• Technical supply chain support for manufacturing of product including sourcing and qualifying new components
• Create and execute appropriate test plans to validate mechanical and thermal designs

Preferred Experience

• Detailed knowledge of outdoor wireless equipment environmental specifications and design solutions
• Proven experience using SolidWorks or similar mechanical/thermal design and analysis tools
• Experience in developing techniques and designing EMI/EMC compatible shielding of sub-assemblies in sensitive RF circuit environments
• Demonstrated track record delivering quality products in multiple complete development cycles for high volume outdoor wireless equipment
