• Coordinate responses to technical questions, design changes, redlines, requests for information, shop-floor feedback, and field issues to support timely resolution and accurate revisions.
• Maintain organized project records, revision histories, transmittals, approvals, action logs, and other technical documentation throughout the engineering lifecycle.
• Support engineering workload visibility, resource coordination, and communication of capacity, quality, responsiveness, and recurring issues to management.
• Support continuous improvement by standardizing engineering handoffs, submittal requirements, templates, design-review practices, and coordination processes.
• Work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders to ensure engineering outputs support safety, quality, cost, schedule, compliance, and manufacturability expectations.
• Facilitate the import, integration, organization, and exchange of 3D CAD models and related technical data within the internal engineering environment.
• Perform other job-related responsibilities as assigned.
