• Proficiency with project management tools such as Microsoft Project, Wrike, or Trello, along with ERP/MRP systems and digital production scheduling tools.
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, understand assembly workflows, and engage in technical discussions with engineers and manufacturing personnel.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, organizational abilities, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently.
• Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or related continuous improvement training or certification.
• Experience managing customer-specific engineering changes, custom components, prototype-to-production transitions, and tight-turnaround manufacturing programs.
• Familiarity with scope management, cost control, schedule risk assessment, and customer contract requirements.
