Manage engineering data and implement design changes using PLM/PDM systems such as Teamcenter and SAP, ensuring traceability and adherence to change management processes.
Engineering Analysis & Product Lifecycle Support - Perform tolerance analyses (GD&T), mechanical calculations, risk assessments, and design verification activities. Support products throughout the full lifecycle, from concept and realization to continuous improvement, ensuring technical quality and compliance with engineering standards.
Technical Leadership & Collaboration - Identify technical risks, dependencies, and interface issues, driving mitigation actions where required. Lead and contribute to design reviews, technical discussions, and alignment sessions, while collaborating closely with Lead Engineers, Project Managers, suppliers, and multidisciplinary teams.
Coaching & Continuous Improvement - Review engineering work, provide constructive feedback, and support less experienced engineers through technical guidance and mentorship. Facilitate knowledge sharing, contribute to improving engineering methods and team ways of working, and take ownership of specific technical topics or work packages.
