• Develops and implements production and tooling methodologies.
• Participates on Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) to integrate technical solutions across multiple disciplines.
• Develops, identifies and implements conceptual designs and maintains the program architecture for build.
• Leads and implements manufacturing plans.
• Conducts producibility and variation analyses to ensure that manufacturing process capability matches requirements.
• Assists in providing producibility information for inclusion in project plans and helps document producibility best practices.
• Analyzes design/build concepts to evaluate producible design/build definitions.
• Resolves technical problems of significant impact to performance, cost or schedule.
• Coordinates and implements new engineering principles, theories, advanced technologies and concepts.
• Validates and ensures production readiness of solutions to complex problems.
• Implements lean principles and technologies.

Required skills/qualifications:

• Engineering degree or equivalent with 5+years of experience
• Producibility (this is THE most important, non-negotiable)
• Design reviews
• Layout and drawing reviews
• Catia/Enovia and 2D drawing
• Development program experience
• IVT
• Specs and standards
• Completed ME school (the expectation is that this person will hit the ground running)

Preferred skills/qualifications:

• BDS experience
• B-52 experience
• Supply chain
• Tooling
• Program start-up (this would be particularly important for longevity and opportunities to extend)

Software skills required: CATIA, ENOVIA, IVT, PDM/CAPP, REDARS

Education/experience typically acquired through advanced technical education from an accredited course of study in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry (e.g. Bachelor) and typically 5 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience (e.g. PhD, Master+3 years' related work experience). In the USA, ABET accreditation is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.
