   5. Collaborates with setup teams, engineers, and production personnel to develop processes, resolve quality and productivity issues, and drive continuous improvement.
   6. Reviews tooling failure data to implement design-driven improvements while communicating project timelines and status to DSB management.

   Advanced:

   1. Develops and applies advanced powder metallurgy (P/M) processing techniques to optimize legacy production and launch new products.
   2. Applies Lean methodologies to compress design cycles, improve accuracy, and establish engineering best practices within the group.
   3. Conducts design reviews and provides targeted feedback based on manufacturing process plans and development risks.
   4. Partners cross-functionally with the Tool Room, Setup, and Maintenance teams to assess equipment capability, build improvement plans, and engineer technical solutions.
   5. Utilizes advanced deflection, stress, and surface-wear analysis to design high-performance tooling.
   6. Analyzes setup and pressing workflows to engineer solutions for better quality, productivity, and changeover times.
   7. Manages tooling backup plans, repair budgets, and continuous improvements while providing regular status and timeline updates to DSB management.
