Develop complete, accurate, installation-ready system layouts and detailed designs in Onshape
Create and maintain assemblies, drawings, BOMs, and manufacturing and installation documentation
Drive procurement, vendor coordination, kitting, and production so every project is complete and ready to ship on schedule
