• Execute work independently, identify and communicate program roadblocks.
• Provide guidance to and may mentor junior engineers. Actively participate in design reviews and knowledge sharing.
• Demonstrate deep technical knowledge in multiple areas to deliver high-quality and reliable mass-production user or consumer products (e.g., sheet metal, machining, anodization, injection molding, coatings, raw materials, packaging, thermals, FEA).
