This role is also responsible for influencing others to ensure that display fixtures enhance the customer experience, meet loss prevention requirements, and support **MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***.'s goal to be a retailer of choice. They will coordinate multiple projects and company initiatives concurrently as well as managing the necessary documentation for fabricated fixtures for the **MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***. Enterprise.
Key Responsibilities
1) Fixture Engineering:
Individual will provide engineering solutions for displays/fixtures that are to be used in **MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***. retail stores. Create engineering documentation data sets using SolidWorks (mechanical design software) for said displays/fixtures. They will work closely with all stakeholders to bring the fixture needs to life in a cost effective & sustainable method.
The individual will aid in the assembly of fixture/display prototypes.
The person in this role should have very good mechanical aptitude and parametric modeling skills (preferably SolidWorks). Additionally they should have exposure and understanding of various manufacturing techniques (sheet metal forming, machining, welding, heat forming, die cutting, etc.), various materials (Steel, Aluminum, Plastic, and Wood) and finishing techniques (powdercoat, anodize, printing, etc.). They should have strong analytical & problem-solving skills.
Ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously.
Understanding of mechanical design and processes to bringing solutions to market.
