- Collaborate cross-functionally with operations, estimating, and manufacturing teams to optimize design for manufacturability and margin growth.
- Maintain disciplined design documentation, file storage, naming conventions, and standardized design libraries.
- Evaluate and leverage subcontracted engineering resources to reduce lead times and accelerate stamped approvals.
- Troubleshoot complex design and CAD platform issues, ensuring seamless workflow.
- Proven leadership experience in engineering within a $30M+ revenue, engineer-to-order manufacturing environment.
- Strong proficiency in CAD/design software, design standards, and manufacturing processes.
- Track record of process improvement, standardization, and delivering scalable, market-driven designs.
- Excellent cross-functional collaboration, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Strategic mindset with the ability to align engineering initiatives with business objectives.
