Pitch Electro-Mechanical Engineer

Job Description Summary

Activities aimed at proving a concept to be valid or technically feasible by the application of scientific and engineering methodologies. Work in this family typically has the objective of demonstrating through test or analyses the performance and implementation potential of a concept

The Pitch Electro-Mechanical Engineer will be responsible for electrical cabinet and harness design within the Pitch team. The engineers in the Pitch system section are responsible for the motors, cabinet assemblies, cables, and integration of these components into the rotor within the Onshore and Offshore wind turbine platforms. Which includes being responsible for trade-off studies, engineering changes and design releases, bill of material creation and maintenance, validation always achieving the excellence in terms of safety and quality. She/He will work cross functionally with colleagues across the global pitch team, with the technical leader, as well as sourcing, validation and quality teams. Focus for a Mechanical-Electrical Pitch engineer is:

i) ensure safety and quality excellence: completion of all hardware releases, leading design changes; seeking most cost-effective and schedule-effective solutions.

ii) lead the design process of the component: with a deep knowledge of the component, leads the trade-off studies and design of the component completing all the releases associated to the project (3D models, 2D drawings, bill of material, parts releases, configuration of the parts, and final approvals).Job Description
