Job Summary
Provides metrology and calibration engineering support to customers and lab staff. Develops processes and systems in the application of the science of measurement.
Key Responsibilities
Designs and develops measurement processes, methods, and procedures. Performs Measurement Systems Analysis using the principles of traceability and analysis of accuracy and precision requirements. Employs statistics to analyze calibration and testing processes, and interprets results. Provides general consultation on metrology issues. Supports the development and execution of capability studies. Provides technical training on calibration processes and procedures.
Monitors compliance with laboratory quality system requirements.
Competencies
Product Function Test System Design
- Interprets test equipment specifications from test standards or lab customer requirements; selects and integrates appropriate equipment, instrumentation and software to control boundary conditions and collect measurement data; assesses capability of the lab equipment against the requirements and support infrastructure.
Systems Thinking
- Defines the system of interest by drawing the boundaries, identifying its context within its environment, its interfaces, and that it has a lifecycle to aid in planning the problem statement, scope and deliverables ; analyzes linkages and interactions between elements that comprise the system of interest by using appropriate methods, models and integration of outcomes to understand the system, predict its behavior and devise modifications to it in order to produce the desired effects.
Technical Documentation
- Documents information based on knowledge gained as part of technical function activities; communicates to stakeholders with the goal of enabling improved technical productivity and effective knowledge transfer to others who were not originally part of the initial learning.
Technical Function Processes and Tools
- Executes, improves, trains, coaches and/or manages the Technical processes and tools including standards and best practices that enables knowledge to be re-used and functional deliverables to be met in a quality and productive manner. Customer focus
