• Knowledge of Design for Manufacture and Assembly, Design of Experiments, Six Sigma and statistical techniques
• Knowledge of material properties and failure criteria
• Gathers, understands, and analyzes input requirements from stakeholders for new medical devices while supporting the instrumentation/service infrastructure
• Synthesizes all gathered information together with technical and regulatory constraints in order to define a system and its behavior resulting in defining a system specification
• Performs technical planning and performance evaluation studies, conducts technology assessment activities, analyzes system integration issues, generates initial baseline interface specifications, estimates costs and risk, and evaluates customer satisfaction through testing (alpha and beta), analysis and studies
• Assign projects to specific teams and determine how systems will be architected and implemented
• Electrical/Mechanical and Systems Test experience preferred

In response to your job posting for mechanical test engineer, I am including this letter and my resume for your review.

In my previous role, I was responsible for guidance, expertise and training for data reduction, analysis and processing of all engineering test data, dynamic and non-dynamic, in real time and/or post test.

Please consider my experience and qualifications for this position:

• CAD mechanical design and drafting
• Experience with prototyping techniques, bench testing methodology and testing environments
• Data acquisition experience (LabView, National Instruments cDAQ or cRIO) and pro-efficiency in coding and programming (MATLAB, Python or C/C++)
• Instrumentation experience (load cells, non-contacting displacement sensors) and lab equipment (Oscilloscopes, Digital Signal Analyzers, LCR meters…)
• Proven experience in Test & Validation in wind industry or another industry with similar requirements in a similar role
• Experienced with Mmlitary testing programs tailored to avionics applications, generating and compiling test data (MATLAB or Equiv.) and results into reports, HASS/ESS test planning and testing
• APEX DX-Pro, GageMap
• Knowledge of computational methods and programming experience with application to structural analysis and design

I would like to submit my application for the mechanical test engineer opening. Please accept this letter and the attached resume.

In my previous role, I was responsible for engineering support to component testing, including test supervision, analysis and interpretation of test data; initiates design changes and corrective actions as required.

My experience is an excellent fit for the list of requirements in this job:

• Design or testing of sensors, motors, controllers, structures, supports, or mechanical systems
• Design, build and maintenance of mechanical test fixtures
• Functional, performance and environmental qualification testing
• Implementing a wide range of test methodologies
• Performing vibration analysis
• Utilizing data acquisition systems
• With safety critical hardware systems and components
• Performing thermal analysis

I submit this application to express my sincere interest in the mechanical test engineer position.

In my previous role, I was responsible for expertise in advanced statistical analyses (inferential, descriptive, experimental design and multivariate data analysis);.

I reviewed the requirements of the job opening and I believe my candidacy is an excellent fit for this position. Some of the key requirements that I have extensive experience with include:

• Performing fault tree, failure modes and effects analysis
• BS in Mechanical Engineering, a related field, or equivalent work experience
• Exposure to test system design
• Understanding of regulatory requirements such as UL, USEPA, CARB, CSA, CE
• Knowledge of 3D modeling programs such as Solidworks, Solid Edge or NX/UG
• Experience using control programs such as LabVIEW, Visual Basic, Python or C++
• Previous experience with benchtop medical device testing
• Familiarity with test method validation and statistics

I would like to submit my application for the mechanical test engineer opening. Please accept this letter and the attached resume.

Previously, I was responsible for measurement data to engineering for incorporation of design decisions, work instructions and measurement methods.

Please consider my qualifications and experience:

• Able to succeed in a global and dynamic integrated project team environment
• Project management, team building and intercultural experience
• Technical issue and root cause analysis experience
• Material property knowledge, alloy and coatings experience
• APDL, Python, Fortran, Java, Matlab, C, C++
