  • Conduct thorough design self-checks prior to engineering review.

  • Provide technical support to Operations, Manufacturing, Quality, Marketing, and Field Service teams.
  • Collaborate with suppliers to ensure manufacturability, cost efficiency, and technical alignment.
  • Coordinate work among 2-4 designers/drafters on complex projects and manage workload distribution.
  • Mentor junior CAD Designers and provide technical training.
  • Support product improvement, cost-reduction, and continuous-improvement initiatives.
