## About the Role

* Education & Experience: An MS or PhD in Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, Controls Engineering, or a related field, with research or industry experience in vibration analysis, machine diagnostics, signal processing, or prognostics using real test-rig or field data; or a BS in Engineering with 5+ years of experience in condition monitoring, reliability, or instrumentation involving pumps, compressors, mills, or similar rotating equipment.
 * Mechanical & Packaging Design: Utilize CATIA to design robust enclosures for severe industrial environments. Select appropriate materials (plastics, epoxies) and adhesives based on physical properties and environmental hazards.
 * Hardware & Firmware Development: Execute mixed-signal circuit design, PCB layout, and embedded firmware development (ESP32, RTOS, C/C++).
 * Rapid Prototyping & Iteration: Take ownership of the initial design phase utilizing in-house rapid prototyping (MJF/FDM 3D printing) to accelerate the validation cycle and align stakeholder vision before scaling to external vendors.
 * Cross-Functional Alignment: Proactively collaborate with manufacturing engineers, product owners, and end-users to distill complex field observations and equipment performance data into clear, actionable technical requirements.
 * Validation & Field Testing: Write comprehensive test plans from scratch, design and implement physical test jigs, and occasionally travel to active mine sites to conduct on-site validation of sensor reliability, data acquisition hardware, and vibration-based condition monitoring systems for rotating equipment.

## Description

* Select, specify and validate sensors for slurry pumps, including accelerometers, bearing temperature, pressure, flow, motor current, speed and wear sensing.
 * Design rugged mounting, cabling and enclosures that survive abrasion, washdown, moisture and dust, and build retrofit kits for the installed base.
 * Architect the edge-to-cloud data path: data acquisition, edge gateways, wired and wireless sensor networks, and integration with customer PLC, DCS and historian systems.
 * Develop diagnostics for slurry pump failure modes such as bearing defects, imbalance, misalignment, cavitation, off-design operation, and impeller and liner wear.
 * Build signal-processing pipelines and predictive models for wear life and remaining useful life, combining sensor, hydraulic and process data.
 * Turn results into dashboards, reports and service recommendations that customers and technicians use.
 * Plan and run lab trials and field pilots, including installation, commissioning and customer training.
 * Feed field findings back to hydraulic, mechanical and materials engineers to improve pump and wear-part designs.
 * Support sales and service teams with technical input on digital offerings and customer value cases.
