Design:

• Provides make-versus-buy recommendations to management with tradeoffs based on complexity, financial impact, quality, reliability, and time duration. Influences decision making with stakeholders working on similar products.
• Displays deep knowledge in multiple technical areas and acquires advanced knowledge of industry trends, competitor products, and advances in various engineering fields. Shares knowledge with others on their team and helps other engineers understand and apply advanced concepts.
• Creates robust, scalable, secure, and extensible designs and verification plans that account for current industry/competitive threats for the hardware engineering aspects of a variety of established, complex products or feature areas.
• Develops and implements solutions to complex technical and/or design challenges that may involve multiple technical and business-related variables, and applies lessons learned to help develop future focused solutions to complex design challenges.
• Writes internal device specification sheets and interprets complex details required to design and test various hardware features.
• Independently develops drawings that contribute to the development of complex, new products or features using modeling tools. Provides guidance to other engineers on the use of fundamental features of modeling tools.

Testing and Verification:

• Reviews documentation to help ensure that the appropriate test requirements andimprovements are included in relevant hardware designs and specifications.
• Co-develops methods of measurement with appropriate partners for measuring features of new product technology based on newly created or modified verification plans.
• Identifies new tools, test methodologies, and best practices for creating test cases.
• Develops, reviews, and executes test plans for complex feature areas or products.
• Creates external testing supplier or partner engagement plans, evaluates supplier or partner readiness, and captures supplier or partner knowledge for use across a product group.
• Records test data and conducts complex data/statistical analysis to identify bugs, defects, or failures rates, advises other engineers on the use of predictive modeling software, and compiles reports.
• Uses root cause analysis to identify highly complex problems or flaws that may affect a feature or product design change and identifies possible solutions.
• Provides guidance to other engineers developing product features.

Project Implementation:

• Generates project implementation schedules, monitors performance against schedules, and helps determine resource dependencies for the hardware engineering aspects of complex features or products. Guides other team members.
• Implements and tracks product plans that account for the user experience, enable customer/partner testing scenarios, identify critical requirements (e.g., function, quality, safety, reparability, and/or reliability) and are verifiable.
• Evaluates and approves a variety of details of the reliability of materials, properties, and techniques used in production of large designs.
• Identifies the most significant project risks at the outset of a project and develops plans to address those risks.
• Communicates project progress/status within and external to the project team (e.g., to customers and partners) and escalates issues as necessary.
• Suggests project areas that can support Material Change Review Board (MCRB) efforts to improve and react to production issues, as required within a project team.

Reporting and Documentation:

• Writes customized reports and functional specifications for an established product or product feature, based on audits and information from product development and verification processes. Reviews and provides feedback on other engineer's documentation.
• Documents complex details about materials, components, and/or functionality for complex devices via accepted drawing release processes and highlights potential compatibility, safety, and compliance issues.
• Accurately records and tracks changes to designs following established configuration management and provides guidance to other engineers documenting these details
