Specify and evaluate purchased components, subsystems, and services
Perform simulations, prototyping, and testing to validate designs and ensure product performance and reliability meet all specifications
Collaborate with Marketing and Sales teams to align product development with market needs and customer requirements
Establish and drive design-to-cost objectives during new product development, balancing customer requirements, product performance, reliability, and total delivered cost

PROJECT LEADERSHIP

Provide technical leadership for complex product-development programs, establishing technical direction, resolving critical design issues, managing technical risk, and supporting achievement of project cost, schedule, and performance objectives
Coordinate with cross-functional teams including Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to ensure project success
Monitor project progress, identify and resolve issues, and communicate status updates to stakeholders
Ensure compliance with relevant industry standards, regulations, and company policies
