  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and assembly documentation
  • Experience with CAD software (SolidWorks, Creo, Inventor, or equivalent preferred)
  • Strong knowledge of AS9100, PLM systems, configuration management, and engineering change processes
  • Excellent leadership, communication, project management, and problem-solving skills
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent programs and competing priorities in a manufacturing environment.
