TITLE:  High Volume Plastics (Injection/Transfer) Mechanical Engineer

LOCATION: San Diego CA

RELO:  yes, pack and move, temp housing, househunting trip


Our client will ship about $65 million this year, with a plan
next year for $85 million.  They could book over $100 million next year.
The good news is that they are achieving this kind of growth due to market 
growth in LAN's as well as gaining market share against competitors.

Now, the position...

Mechanical Design Engineer - The need here is for an individual that can
provide a mastery of plastics molding, either injection or transfer.  The
individual will lead the identification of the proper process, identify and
procure the production machinery, install in PRC (People's Republic of China) 
and train operators and Hong Kong manufacturing management staff 
(potentially the Phillipines as well).  The best applicant wil likely
be someone out of semiconductor or hybrid packaging, with a
knowledge of fine wire packaging techniques.  The key need is a well seasoned
individual familiar with all aspects of injection and/or transfer molding, tool
design, materials, and high volume manufacture.  The individual would (or could,
depending upon desire) move into the R&D function to provide packaging
solutions.

An alternative is to do this on a consulting basis, with the permanent hire
providing excellent design capability into an established process.

BSME required, 7 to 10 years experience with the ability to provide startup
capability.

Other Factors:

*  Dynamic environment - Individuals for these position must be able to balance
many assignments with volatile priorities.  Candidates must thrive in an
environment of multiple, short term assignments.

*  Culture - They are currently shifting the culture from
one of "start-up, entrepreneurship" to one with solid fundamentals and
disciplines.  Candidates must be motivated to contribute to this cultural change
and not feel threatened by change.  Within their disciplines, they must be
"Change Masters" that can lead necessary change within their responsibilities.

*  Travel - Candidates will have ample opportunity for
international travel (to manufacturing facilities over seas).  Engineers 
typically design not only for functionality of the product, but for the 
manufacturing process as well.  Candidates must appreciate the subtleties of 
design for manufacture, which takes place in the PRC (People's Republic 
of China) and the Phillipines. They are targeting a manufacturing startup in 
Ireland as well.

*  Volume - Their market is basically commodity, high volume.  Some of these
products are produced at the rate of 250,000 per week.  Low cost design for high
volume manufacture is a must.

The core technology is magnetics in small form factors.  The migration of these
products is toward surface mount products, in that their components must be
surface mountable.  They're also a user of surface mount.
