Senior Design Lead

Job Summary

Structural Design

• Designed mechanical and structural components using Creo with a focus on manufacturability, durability, and cost efficiency.

• Performed structural analysis including stress, strain, fatigue, and modal evaluations using FEA tools e.g., ANSYS

• Led design reviews, identified design risks, and implemented corrective actions to improve reliability.

Mechanical Assembly

• Oversaw assembly of prototypes, sub‑assemblies, and full mechanical systems, ensuring alignment with engineering specifications.

• Collaborated with manufacturing teams to optimize assembly processes and resolve build issues.

• Created assembly instructions, BOMs, and work instructions to support production readiness.

• Implemented design-for-assembly (DFA) improvements to reduce build time and increase consistency.

Testing & Validation

• Planned and executed structural & functional to validate mechanical performance.

• Developed test procedures, instrumentation setups, and data‑acquisition strategies.

• Analyzed test data, identified root causes of failures, and recommended design modifications.

• Coordinated with quality and reliability teams to ensure compliance with regulatory and customer requirements.

Key Achievements

• Delivered multiple structural designs that passed qualification testing reducing development cycle time.

• Improved assembly efficiency by implementing design changes that cut build time

• Led cross‑functional investigations that resolved recurring test failures and improved product reliability.

• Supported transition from prototype to production for complex mechanical systems.
