• TTI Consumer Power Tools, Inc., is currently looking for a
• Senior Design Engineer
• in Anderson, SC.

The Senior Design Engineer is responsible for hands-on mechanical design execution for moderate to high‑complexity outdoor power equipment (OPE) systems and subsystems. This role owns detailed design execution from concept to production, with a strong emphasis on robust design, manufacturability, validation, and cost. Operating within the Outdoor Engineering organization, the Sr. Design Engineer I functions as a technical leader and subject‑matter expert for assigned components and assemblies, partnering closely with Product Management, Manufacturing, Quality, Sourcing, and global suppliers to deliver competitive, production‑ready designs.

• Key Job Functions & Responsibilities
• Technical Design Ownership
• + Owns end‑to‑end mechanical design execution for assigned components, sub‑assemblies, or systems from concept, layout, and detailed CAD through validation and production release.

+ Develops and maintains 3D CAD models, 2D drawings, GD&T, tolerance stacks, and specifications to ensure functional performance, regulatory compliance, durability, safety, and manufacturability. + Ability to analyze problems and provide design trade‑off analyses (performance, cost, weight, manufacturability, reliability) and documents rationale for design decisions. + Applies structured problem‑solving methods to resolve design issues, field failures, and manufacturing concerns. + Demonstrates strong engineering judgment and accountability for design quality and performance.

• Design for Manufacturing, Cost, and Quality
• + Designs components optimized for
• high
• ‑•volume manufacturing•, assembly efficiency, tooling capability, and supplier process constraints.

+ Partners with Sourcing and suppliers to evaluate

• manufacturing processes, tooling concepts, and cost drivers
• early in development. + Actively supports
• value engineering / cost
• ‑•down initiatives•without compromising performance or quality.

+ Ensures designs comply with internal standards, regulatory requirements, and applicable

UL / ANSI / CSA / ISO

expectations.

• Verification & Validation
• + Defines DFMEA inputs, design risks, and mitigation strategies for owned designs.

+ Develops and executes design verification plans including tolerance validation, stress analysis, durability testing, environmental testing, and abuse testing. + Uses data‑driven test results to refine designs and confirm requirements are met with appropriate margin. + Reviews and approves engineering changes, deviation requests, and corrective actions related to owned designs.

• Cross
• ‑•Functional Collaboration•+ Works closely with Product Management to translate customer needs and CTQs into clear engineering requirements.

+ Supports Manufacturing Engineering during pilot builds, PPAP, and ramp‑up by resolving build issues and incorporating feedback into design revisions. + Collaborates with Quality, Compliance, and Reliability teams to support certifications, audits, and failure investigations. + Provides clear technical communication to global engineering, sourcing, and supplier teams. + Contributes to the development and improvement of design standards, test methods, and engineering processes.

• Required Qualifications
• + Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering discipline.

+ Minimum 5 years of design experience in consumer, industrial, or electromechanical products. + Strong proficiency in 3D CAD (Creo / SolidWorks / NX or equivalent), detailed drawings, and GD&T. + Demonstrated experience with materials, manufacturing processes, tooling, and supplier‑built components. + Experience leading design verification and validation activities using data‑driven methods. + Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and technical communication skills. + Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, results‑driven product development environment.

• Preferred Qualifications
• + Experience with outdoor power equipment, power tools, small engines, or high‑load electromechanical systems.

+ Hands‑on experience supporting pilot builds and production ramp‑ups. + Familiarity with global supplier collaboration and Asia‑based manufacturing. + Experience supporting

UL / CSA / ANSI

compliance activities.

• Travel
• + Occasional travel (approximately
• 3-10%
• ) to suppliers, manufacturing sites, or test facilities.
