  • Create and deliver clear technical presentations internally and to customers
  • Support the development of plastic injection-molded components
  • Occasional travel to customer and manufacturing locations (~5%)

  • Experience in automotive engineering and/or program management (not required, but preferred)
  • Knowledge of plastic injection molding processes and design considerations (not required, but preferred)
  • Strong root cause analysis and structured problem-solving skills
  • Proficiency with CAD software (moderate use – ~20% of role)
  • Understanding of tolerance analysis (stack-ups) and value engineering principles
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to work across diverse teams
  • Ability to interface effectively with customers and internal departments
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, especially:
    • Excel (data analysis)
    • PowerPoint (presentations)
  • Ability to develop and deliver professional technical presentations
  • Hands-on mindset with willingness to support plant floor activities
  • Strong organizational and time management skills
  • No programming or automation experience required
