• Review external analysis and validation data (FEA, CFD, physical test results, etc)
• Ensure compliance with industry, military, and government standards for technical, quality and safety requirements.
• Involvement with the end-to-end Engineering process (from bid winning/business development through to product manufacture, assembly, and test)
• Material selection of products for specific parameters
• Oversee testing for compliance in line with specified requirements
• Create prototypes for testing, including functional and environmental validation
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams for seamless integration into Defence systems
• Analyse and troubleshoot valve failures, implementing corrective actions and design improvements
• Generate engineering documentation, such as drawings, calculations, plans, technical instructions
• Provide progress reports to stakeholders
• Manage time and costs and operate within budget constraints
• Stay updated with advancements in valve technology and recommend innovations for continuous improvements
• Ensure quality assurance and control processes meet or exceed specified standards
• Identify and mitigate potential risks associated with product design, production, and deployment
