Create and manage2D and 3D drawingsto support fabrication, installation, and manufacturing requirements

Establish drafting best practices, templates, and naming conventions to improve consistency and efficiency

Ensure drawings aremanufacturing-ready, accurately dimensioned, and aligned with production capabilities

2. Engineering Process Development & Improvement

Design and implementrepeatable drafting and engineering workflows

Identifyinefficiencies, gaps, or risks in current engineering and drafting processes

Leadprocess improvement initiativesfocused on cycle time reduction, error reduction, and scalability

Support transition from ad-hoc drafting to structured, documented engineering standards

3. Cross-Functional Project Coordination

Execute product design, research, and prototyping initiatives in collaboration with :

Production & Manufacturing

Quality (QA / QC)

Procurement & Supply Chain

Project Management

Coordinate multi-departmental development projects from concept through production release

Act as a technical liaison between engineering and downstream stakeholders
