Partner with engineers during new test stand development to provide manufacturability feedback and improve harness serviceability.
Support configuration management by maintaining harness documentation, revisions, bills of materials, and work instructions.
Coordinate with vendors and internal stakeholders to ensure materials and components are available to meet project schedules.
Support laboratory operations by responding to emergent issues and performing repairs that minimize test downtime.
Foster a culture of craftsmanship, safety, accountability, and continuous improvement within the Harness Team.
Other duties as assigned.
