• Proactively identify patterns in conflicting information and constructively resolve the conflict(s) in a manner that minimizes impact and rework.
• With low-to-moderate guidance and direction, generate component specifications from component level requirement documents, and review with author(s) to modify as needed prior to formal pursuit.
• Share component specifications with potential suppliers to identify suitable Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) component availability or develop suitable components when COTS parts are not suitable.
• Use component specifications to enable suppliers to develop skid-mounted or container-based assemblies of many components to fulfil entire subsystem requirements, ensuring a complete integration of mechanical and electrical equipment for seamless integration into a customer-ready product.
• Track component- and subsystem-level risks from technical/functional requirements, certification, manufacturability, serviceability, timeline and cost. Propose and implement mitigations where necessary.
• Ensure new componentry and assemblies have been validated and thoroughly documented prior to production release.
• Assure utilization of root cause/corrective action techniques to generate consistently optimal problem resolution.
• Set challenging but attainable technical goals for self, and track achievements, success and failures to develop and optimize individual and team performance.
• As may be required, support the development of suppliers to enable them to meet technical, cost and delivery targets.
• Work with supply chain to initiate, develop and execute component-related cost reductions.
• Challenge the status quo of current hardware componentry, systems and practices to achieve continuous MBOP improvements.
• Develop plans that support achievement of short and long-term business demands.
• Stay abreast of all new and evolving, external MBOP-related processes, parts, materials and developments to assure Doosan remains elevated above its competition.
• Work seamlessly with others across functional, geographic and cultural boundaries.
• Align personal performance with team performance and share credit for team successes, and responsibility for team failures.
• Seek mentor and/or mentee relationships for personal career development, and the development of others.
