Overview:

We do manufacturing and development of fuel system components specially on my team fuel injectors for diesel engines. Focused on one particular fuel injector thats going to be a client engine product Its a mix of design work working with suppliers and manufacturing folks kind of doing some collaboration and development on engineering prints and models but there is also a lot of time spent in the test lab. Checking the performance of our injectors as well as doing endurance testing and then doing inspections and measurements before and after those tests to ensure that the product is robust before it goes to the engine customer. Its a combination of desk work as well a lab work. We are doing product development, Ther are times when the tests don't go perfectly as planned and we have to do some investigation and problem solving and then some improvements to the product
