A hands-on team player who is comfortable spending approximately 80% of their time in an office environment and 20% on the shop floor, gaining firsthand understanding of how designs translate into production.
A proactive problem solver who can troubleshoot design, programming, and manufacturing challenges and make adjustments to improve quality, efficiency, and manufacturability.
A strong communicator who can clearly understand customer needs and work closely with Production, Engineering, and other departments to bring designs from concept to completion.
Someone who takes ownership of their work and is committed to accuracy, continuous improvement, and delivering designs that meet both customer expectations and production goals.

Participate in cross-functional teams focused on process improvement and operational excellence.
Contribute to initiatives that improve workflow, reduce waste, and enhance quality standards.
Maintain accurate documentation of programs, revisions, and process updates.
Support implementation of new equipment, technology, and automation systems.
