Mechanical Engineer

Job DescriptionJob Description

Job Summary:

We are seeking an experienced and self-motivated Mechanical Engineer to join our team. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with the hiring manager and cross-functional teams to enhance our manufacturing processes for non-woven sheet materials used in the production of mopping disposable pads. The primary focus will be on understanding material and manufacturing limitations related to welding, gluing, and slitting/perforation techniques, with key focus on prototyping and optimizing approaches for these methods with respect to a continuous roll manufactured product. Our goal is to improve consumer tear-off functionality and to optimize the tuft layer of the pads, ensuring adequate tuft spacing and maximizing particle pickup efficiency.

Responsibilities:

- Collaborate with the hiring manager and cross-functional teams to understand the material and manufacturing limitations associated with welding/gluing/slitting non-woven sheet materials.

- Take daily direction from the hiring manager to conduct research, perform experiments, and analyze data to develop innovative approaches for methods of continuous roll manufactured products.

- Prototype and test different methods of slitting the non-woven sheet materials to enable easy tear-off for consumers at different sizes.

- Optimize the tuft layer of the pads to ensure that the spacing and tear operation leave ample free tuft at the edge of the torn-off pad, as tuft is critical for effective particle pickup during mopping.

- Monitor and document the results of experiments and tests, maintaining accurate records of findings and observations.

- Collaborate with manufacturing engineers to incorporate insights related to future scale up of successful approaches, ensuring seamless integration into the production process.

Qualifications

- Proficiency in prototyping and conducting experiments to optimize manufacturing processes.

- Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret and draw insights from data.

- Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.

- Detail-oriented with the ability to maintain accurate documentation and records.

- Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal supervision.
