Conduct engineering analyses to validate tooling performance (stress checks, load paths, fit‑up, tolerance stacks).
Drive root‑cause investigation and corrective actions for tooling-related issues affecting production or integration.
Manage projects including schedule, cost estimates, supplier coordination, and risk mitigation.
Support continuous improvement initiatives including automation, lean tooling strategies, and workflow optimization.
Ensure tooling compliance with ASME, OSHA, and aerospace industry standards for lifting, handling, and safety.
Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance across the tooling organization.
