* Experience with DFM/DFA for electro‑mechanical systems and close collaboration with contract manufacturers.

* Exposure to fixture design, mechanical process validation, and manufacturing documentation.

* Proficiency with 3D CAD tools and mechanical analysis fundamentals.

Preferred Qualifications -
