  • Manufacturing Knowledge: Solid understanding of CNC machining, Wire EDM, grinding, tooling fabrication methods, and integration of automation, sensors, and die protection systems.
  • Engineering & Leadership Skills: Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities with proven experience leading projects, influencing cross-functional teams, and mentoring technical personnel.
  • Project Management: Demonstrated ability to manage tooling projects end-to-end, including scope, scheduling, risk assessment, change management, and coordination with internal teams, suppliers, and vendors
