Hands-on prototyping, testing, validation, and iteration to ensure designs meet performance and reliability targets.
Own and contribute to the creation of detailed drawings, GD&T, tolerance stacks, BOMs, and ECOs, and set standards for documentation of quality across the team.
Guide engineers at multiple levels, providing technical direction, design reviews, and long-term skill development.
Travel up to 20%.
