JOB DESCRIPTION
This individual will be responsible for proving out technical feasibility for upcoming roadmap projects during an early-stage window, ahead of firm product definition. This work directly shapes product definition by identifying what's functionally possible and giving the cross-functional team options for how to achieve the desired outcome. This role requires a high degree of independence supported by daily check-ins with project management.
Required skills include:
POC Development
- Harvesting components from existing products and adding or modifying as necessary to create a functional proof of concept. Strong hands-on skills and creative thinking on how to move forward quickly are critical to success. System Level Thinking
- Consider how all the parts interact with each other, look for unresolved issues, and chase them down. Test Design and Execution
- Determine what we need to know and how best to learn it, then execute the plan. Familiarity with thermocouples, current clamps, and electro-mechanical systems required. Thermal Fundamentals
- Strong grasp of heat transfer principles. These products are thermally driven, and this understanding is critical to identifying feasible paths forward quickly. Data Analysis
- Digest and compile data to understand how a system is working and determine next steps. Reporting
- Generate clear written and verbal reports on progress. Independence
- Comfortable operating with minimal daily oversight and navigating ambiguity without a fully defined spec.
EXPERIENCE FOR IDEAL CANDIDATE
- Construction & Building of metal products
- Familiar with Heat Transfer
- Excellent communication skills, verbal and written
