A hybrid work model (3 onsite/2 remote) is available.    As a Senior Design Engineer, you will perform product design engineering for Eaton’s Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) product line. Primary focus is to ensure function, performance margin and design robustness of MCCB products. Responsibilities include new product design and development, validating design concepts, obtaining & maintaining third party certifications, supporting product launch phases, ensuring product functional requirements, supporting resolution of yield and quality issues, performance enhancements on existing products, validating component changes, supporting cost reductions (VA/VE) efforts, addressing application issues, and production line support. The position interfaces with regional and global teams in design, manufacturing, marketing, quality, and customers. The individual will have design responsibility for select projects from inception through validation and into production implementation. In this role you will: A.     Lead efforts to compile, study, and reconcile product requirements and standards to design, develop, validate, and document MCCB products. B.    Identify and prioritize projects to eliminate potential design and performance issues during new product development or enhance existing product performance and margin. C.    Develop strong technical knowledge in circuit breaker design, testing, application, and applicable governing regulatory standards (UL, CSA, IEC, NEMA, etc.). D.    Utilize statistical quality tools to establish performance baselines and identify focus areas for product performance enhancements and robustness improvements. E.    Perform and leverage modelling / simulation activities on component and system level to ensure robust designs and adequate performance margins.   F.    Learn and integrate Design for Six Sigma, CeTol, GD&T, simulation & modeling software, and phase-gate development processes. G.    Maintain product listings and quickly address any third party testing non-conformances to minimize financial sales and delivery impact. H.    Establish control plans, component & process verifications and defining critical-to-quality characteristics. I.    Engage and collaborate with marketing, industrialization, manufacturing, project management and other key teams to ensure successful product development and launch.
