About the Job

Requirements

  • An engineering degree with a mechanical focus or a doctorate is required.
  • Experience in the design and development of electronic and mechanical devices, including product architecture and product-tree management, is required.
  • Knowledge of integrating electronic boards or mechatronic subassemblies is required.
  • Proficiency in computer-aided design tools such as Creo and Windchill, or equivalent tools, MyWorkshop, and simulation tools such as ANSYS is required.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint, is required.
  • Technical writing skills for technical notes and design-review documents are required.
  • Project management knowledge is required.
  • Fluent written and spoken French and English are required.
  • High-voltage and fluid-mechanics skills are desirable qualifications, not requirements.
  • Knowledge of thermics, electrostatics, electromagnetic compatibility, and magnetic fields is recommended.
  • Knowledge of Six Sigma methodology is required; Green Belt certification is appreciated.
  • Rigor, attention to detail, curiosity, autonomy, teamwork, collaboration across departments, initiative, and proactive problem-solving are expected.

Responsibilities

  • Write specifications; define architecture; design, simulate, develop, test, industrialize, and deploy new medical-imaging subsystem features.
  • Design high-voltage generators, X-ray tubes, and their cooling systems in accordance with applicable medical-device standards.
  • Monitor products deployed at customer sites and participate in design changes.
  • Define and formalize design inputs and specifications, and prepare associated documentation.
  • Propose concepts and facilitate technical design reviews.
  • Create 3D models and simulate mechanical components and subassemblies, including molded plastics, castings, sheet metal, and cabling.
  • Analyze high-voltage constraints, run numerical simulations using ANSYS, and perform strength-of-materials calculations.
  • Design cooling systems by analyzing flow and pressure and defining flow-test instructions.
  • Analyze and select materials while considering design for manufacturability constraints.
  • Prepare part and assembly drawings for manufacturing, including functional dimensioning and geometric tolerancing.
  • Identify critical characteristics for customers, product safety, performance, and manufacturing, and define essential characteristics.
  • Write and review technical documentation for mechanical and electronic components, including assembly instructions.
  • Build and maintain technical files, product bills of materials, and industrialization bills of materials, including bills of sources in MyWorkshop.
  • Develop prototypes through rapid prototyping, parts procurement, and assembly, and test them on test benches or in laboratories.
  • Lead test campaigns by defining protocols, participating in performance and regulatory testing, verifying compliance, and identifying required corrections.
  • Select and communicate with suppliers, and review and optimize industrialization processes.
  • Analyze supplier nonconformities and technical problems encountered in manufacturing, assembly, or commissioning.
  • Provide technical advice and assistance to other design teams, particularly power electronics, high-voltage electronics, and digital development teams integrating control boards.
  • Propose improvements to methods, tools, and features, and maintain technology awareness.

Desired Qualifications

  • Green Belt certification is appreciated.
