Introduction

We are part of a world-class product development organization that pioneers industry-leading hardware designs for IBM POWER Systems servers as well as Storage, Quantum, and IBM Research. Within this organization, the IBM mechanical design team is seeking a professional with experience in mechanical design having skills in 3D mechanical modeling, design for manufacturing, and product release process to join industry leading engineers in pioneering the future of high performance and high reliability server solutions.

Challenges of high performance and high reliability server solutions include high density designs with complex system requirements that require creative solutions from our mechanical design team to optimize system designs. The candidate will work in a multi-functional environment where the requirements of thermal, acoustics, electro-magnetic-compatibility (EMC), structural integrity, safety, industrial design, cost, performance, and functionality must all be satisfied to deliver a final solution. Working with a focused team, the candidate will develop the product design from concept through product release. Primary responsibilities will be to specify IBM Appliance product configurations composed of compute servers, storage drawers, networking switches, and cabling to enable worldwide fulfillment and shipping to external clients.

Secondary responsibilities will be to develop mechanical models through engagement with the expanded team, rapid prototype critical hardware updates, release design changes to manufacturing, evaluate hardware for design improvements, and engage suppliers.

Your role and responsibilities

As a member of the Mechanical Design team, you will be expected to work autonomously and deliver on project phases on time and on budget.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Creation of Bill of Materials (BOM), product structures, engineering changes (EC)

• Working with multi-disciplinary engineering team to collaborate on development and definition of complex rack level integrated products with multiple compute, storage, and networking systems components.

• Interface with development, manufacturing, and compliance teams to enable fulfillment of complex rack level integrated products out of IBM manufacturing division.

• Mechanical component and integrated assembly design through multiple iterations from early concept level to final production level

• Computer Aided Design (CAD)

• Mechanical analysis (tolerance, clash, Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

• Material selection and parts design optimization for functionality, cost, and manufacturability.

Required technical and professional expertise

• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent program

• 0-3 years engineering experience

• Familiarity with Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools; creating 2D drawings and 3D models: Solidworks Preferred

• Familiarity with mechanical analysis: tolerance analysis (GD&T), clash analysis, structural analysis

• Familiarity with part design using sheetmetal, plastic, die-cast, machining, 3D printing, and finishes

• Familiarity with design for manufacturability (DFM)

• Experience with Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word

• Self-starter, self-motivated, and able to independently drive tasks to completion

• Willingness to work hands on with mechanical components

Must be effective working in a team-based atmosphere
