• Interpret customer needs and define scope of supply, including cost and cycle time inputs for assigned technical proposals.

• Own the successful execution of engineering and downstream activities for CM&U projects.
• Resolve complex technical issues that arise during project execution by developing effective and timely solutions.
• Utilize standardized tools and processes to establish project structures within enterprise systems.
• Develop and manage engineering and drafting schedules using Enovia PLM, ensuring timely delivery to support parts manufacturing, outage activities, and downstream operations.
• Manage engineering changes throughout the project lifecycle to maintain delivery commitments.
• Ensure timely demand placement for engineered parts.
• Author Field Modification Instructions (FMI) documentation.
• Collaborate with Project Management, Engineering, Manufacturing, Sourcing, Vendors, Service Shops, and other stakeholders to drive successful project outcomes.
• Monitor project schedules and budgeted engineering hours; proactively identify and address deviations.
• Provide technical support to team members across domestic and global locations.
• Respond accurately and promptly to technical inquiries using design data, historical documentation, prior reports, and expert collaboration.
• Complete project closeout activities, including feedback collection and data analysis to support continuous improvement initiatives.
