Lead Engineer - Systems Engineering

Job Description SummaryAs a Lead Engineer – Systems Engineering, you will be responsible for delivering the technical scope, performance, quality, and intellectual property for modules within New Product Introduction (NPI) and or productivity programs
Systems engineering is a cross-functional engineering discipline centered on an approach, mindset, and process. All activities that consider both the business and the technical needs of the customers with the goal of providing a quality product that meets the users needs. The discipline that executes a robust process of design, creation, and optimization of systems, consisting of identification and quantification of system requirements, creation of alternate system design concepts, performance of design trade studies, selection and implementation of the best designs and verification that the design is properly integrated and executed. Process that proceeds from concept to production to operation.
Your role will focus on ensuring feature integrity, design intent, product quality, reliability, serviceability, manufacturability, regulatory compliance, and cost targets are met.
Responsible for departmental operations planning/execution or is focused on execution of professional activities within a technical discipline. Functions with some autonomy but guided by established policies or review of end results.
The job allows modification of procedures and practices covering work as long as the end results meet standards of acceptability (quality, volume, timeliness etc.).
