Faro Technologies, Incorporated Work Values

Daily Duties at Faro Technologies, Incorporated:

Duties include all mechanical design for portable coordinate measurement equipment and related systems. My first year at FARO I reported directly to the CEO for new product development that resulted in many improvements to the existing product line. During this time we experimented with aluminum extrusions, investment casting and rapid prototyping utilizing Stereo Lithography. I was responsible for selecting appropriate vendors, site surveys and all vendor communication. For the next two years I supervised the mechanical design department including junior designers and drafters in addition to my mechanical design duties. I have worked closely with the shop and the rest of engineering to initiate many product improvements and cost reductions. All of the design work has been done in 3D parametric solids with Autodesk Mechanical Desktop versions 1.2, 2 & 3. I was working directly with the Senior Mechanical Engineer in a continuous product improvement program and new product development. I am also supervisor of the prototype machine shop and worked to make my own prototypes when the machinist was busy on other projects.

What they like about Faro Technologies, Incorporated:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
