- You must be prepared to sell the features of the design and its implementations to both the customer and the division personnel who will be manufacturing and supporting the design.
JOB REQUIREMENTS:
- You will have a BS degree in Engineering, with extensive experience in creating successful designs of electrohydraulic, electromechanical, and/or electropneumatic servomechanisms or their control electronics.
