Design and develop high-precision electromechanical products from concept through production. Build and test prototypes, apply motion systems and controls expertise, create CAD models and documentation (Creo/SolidWorks), perform engineering analyses, apply DFM/DFA, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and support proposals and customer engagements.

This role involves developing sales strategies for automated solutions, qualifying opportunities, designing systems, and managing customer relationships while leading a team of Automation Account Managers.

Lead mechanical design and development from concept through production for high-precision electromechanical and marine products. Build and test prototypes, apply motion systems and controls, produce CAD models in Creo/SolidWorks, perform engineering analyses, implement DFM/DFA, support proposals, and ensure QMS compliance while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Develop and maintain modeling and simulation infrastructure to test multi-vehicle autonomy in operational scenarios. Design, implement, simulate, and validate autonomy software (MIL/SIL/digital twin/LVC) using C/C++ and Python on large-scale HPC/distributed simulation environments. Present technical results and support customer engagements; occasional travel and security clearance required.

Serve as the Discovery IT business partner driving informatics and automation solutions for Discovery. Act as product owner for lab systems, lead Discovery technology projects, manage change and vendor coordination, support Tier 1-3 operations, gather and prioritize requirements with SONAR teams, and promote data-driven practices and compliance with regulatory validation frameworks.

Lead design and implementation of scalable biophysical and biochemical screening workflows (including DEL and HTS) to identify, triage, and validate small molecule hits. Build instrumentation, assays, protein constructs, and automation-integrated pipelines; partner with chemistry, computational, and automation teams to advance hit-to-lead activities and enable high-throughput discovery.

Maintain and improve deployed PLC, SCADA, and robotics control systems for lab automation. Troubleshoot multidisciplinary incidents, perform root cause analysis, implement fixes, update third-party integration wrappers, sustain PLC-based safety systems, plan maintenance/patching/upgrades, keep engineering documentation current, and track reliability metrics to improve uptime and reduce recurring faults.
