Serve as a key resource for customers, technical team, project managers, and leadership to ensure projects are executed at the level of quality, manage risks, and provide mentorship to employees.
Drive and support company capture and growth opportunities by managing, writing, and providing proposals against topics and solicitations.
Ensure projects are completed in scope, on time, and within budget.

Familiarity with technology, manufacturing, and integration readiness levels.
Able to excel in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, where small teams share a broad variety of duties across multi disciplines in ceramic, polymers, testing, and metals.
