Exposure to a wide variety of production machinery, industrial sensors, and equipment (vision systems, dispense systems, temperature controllers, laser distance sensors, Nut-Runners, etc.)
Excellent communication skills both written and verbal
Experience in fast-paced iterative design and manufacturing environments
Experience solving complex problems with little to no supervision on schedule as an individual or as a member of an integrated team.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

Ability to work extended hours and weekends as needed to support critical milestones

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

Pay Range:

Level 3: $135,000.00 - $215,000.00
