New Product Introduction (NPI):

• Collaborate with the engineering and design teams during the NPI process to provide technical expertise and insights.
• Review engineering drawings and models to identify potential manufacturing challenges and offer design for manufacturability (DFM) recommendations.
• Participate in prototype development, ensuring accurate translation of designs into functional parts

Quality Assurance and Documentation:

• Monitor and maintain quality control procedures, including in-process inspections and final product verification.
• Document all relevant data, including measurements, process parameters, and any deviations or non-conformances.
