About the Position
Have you read Machinery’s Handbook cover to cover… over a weekend? Did your significant other make fun of you when you curled up with Roark’s Formulas for Stress and Strain… while on vacation? Were you demoralized when that awesome parametric part model you created (you know, the one that would require manufacturing technology to advance only 5 or 10 more years) gets only a “cool” rating from your friends and colleagues? Then you might be right for us.
