• Developing ERP routings, work instructions, inspection instructions, and CNC machine programs while ensuring compliance with EHS and ergonomic standards

• Validating product design and industrialization through First Article Review (FAR) and First Article Inspection (FAI)

• Supporting production to achieve manufacturing QCD targets and contributing to continuous improvement initiatives
