Technical Design 1
Uses manual or Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools to define or revise mechanical/structural engineering product definitions. Verifies accuracy of non-technical data. Gathers relevant data for root cause analysis. Produces changes to resolve discrepancies in design packages. Works under close supervision.
Competencies
General• Communication
Makes an effort to clarify purpose and importance; stresses major points; follows a logical sequence. Tries to keep the audience engaged through use of techniques such as analogies, illustrations, humor, an appealing style, body language, and voice inflection. With guidance from others frames messages in line with audience experience, background, and expectations; tries to use terms, examples, and analogies that are meaningful to the audience. Occasionally seeks input from audience; checks understanding; tries to present message in different ways to enhance understanding. Uses syntax, pace, volume, diction, and mechanics appropriate to the media being used. Interprets messages from others and responds appropriately; at times requires guidance from others on how to respond.
• Decision Making
Generally recognizes routine issues, problems, or opportunities in own work area and determines whether action is needed; generally identifies the need for and collects information to better understand issues, problems, and opportunities; tries to integrate information from different sources; detects trends, associations, and cause-effect relationships; generally creates relevant options for addressing problems/opportunities and achieving desired outcomes; develops an understanding of decision criteria; evaluates options by considering implications and consequences; chooses an effective option; generally implements decisions or initiates action within a reasonable time; gains experience in including fellow work group members in the decision-making process as warranted to obtain good information, makes appropriate decisions, and ensures buy-in and understanding of the resulting decisions.
• Innovation
Seeks alternative ways to view or define problems. Tries to combine ideas in unique ways or makes connections between disparate ideas; explores different lines of thought; views situations from multiple perspectives; participates in brainstorming approaches/solutions. Focuses on areas for innovation and suggests solutions that address meaningful issues in own work area.
Technical• Computer Aided Design Tools
Basic knowledge of computer aided design tools and systems (e.g., computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), computer aided three dimensional interactive (CATIA), Mentor Graphics, Unigraphics). Able to manipulate data sets, (e.g., compare CATIA to measurement data, create stereo lithography files).
• Design/Drafting Methods
Basic knowledge of design and drafting methods (e.g., orthographic projection, descriptive geometry, layout, geometric dimensioning & tolerancing, coordinate systems, etc.) as applied to manual drafting and/or computer-aided design tools in the creation of drawings and datasets.
• Engineering Standards
Basic knowledge of specification format requirements, guidelines, and change control processes. Understanding of relationship between specifications/standards and aircraft/product certification systems.
• Engineering Technical Info
Basic ability to read, understand and interpret engineering technical information (e.g., drawings, handbooks, industry standards and specifications).
