Engineering Collaboration Collaborate with engineers and designers to understand project specifications and technical requirements. Translate engineering requirements into software specifications and provide feedback on feasible solutions. Participate in technical discussions to ensure software meets both functional and engineering accuracy standards. Calculation and Drawing Automation Develop algorithms and scripts for performing common engineering calculations, such as structural, thermal, and fluid dynamics. Create automated drawing generation tools that produce accurate, consistent outputs based on engineering inputs and parameters. Implement parametric design logic to streamline drawing updates for modifications in part dimensions, materials, and configurations. Quality Control and Troubleshooting Ensure software and scripts produce accurate results through rigorous testing and validation with engineering teams. Troubleshoot issues with engineering software integrations and develop solutions to optimize workflows. Regularly review and optimize code to improve performance and reliability. Documentation and Maintenance Document all code, algorithms, and processes to ensure knowledge transfer and ease of maintenance. Maintain a database of calculation and drawing tools, including version control and updates as per engineering needs. Keep documentation up-to-date with engineering standards, project requirements, and industry codes. Continuous Improvement Research and implement new technologies and methodologies that could enhance engineering calculations and drawing automation. Stay informed of updates in engineering software and tools to improve and expand automation capabilities. Suggest process improvements and software enhancements to streamline engineering workflows. Qualifications Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. Relevant certifications in programming or CAD software development are a plus. Experience: 0-5 years of experience in programming for engineering or technical applications, with a focus on automation for calculations and CAD tools. Technical Skills: Proficiency in programming languages such as Python or VBA with experience in CAD automation tools. Familiarity with engineering software (e.g., AutoCAD & SolidWorks) and their APIs for scripting and customization. Knowledge of engineering calculations and methodologies, with the ability to translate them into code. Problem-Solving: Strong analytical skills, with the ability to address complex technical challenges related to engineering calculations and automated drawings. Communication: Ability to clearly communicate technical concepts to engineers and non-technical stakeholders. Preferred Qualifications Experience with engineering-specific programming (e.g., FEA scripting, parametric design) or industry-specific CAD tools. Familiarity with database management or experience handling large datasets in engineering contexts. Knowledge of engineering codes and standards related to calculations and designs (e.g., ASME, API, ISO). HMT is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer.
