Develop and refine manufacturing processes that meet schedule, budget, and quality targets.

Design and optimize production layouts, equipment setups, and workflows for maximum efficiency.

Work cross-functionally with engineers, production teams, and customers to solve problems and implement continuous improvements.

Develop and update PFMEAs, control plans, work instructions, and technical documents.

Provide technical insight on product designs to ensure they’re manufacturable, cost-effective, and meet customer requirements.
