  • Supplier Management – Work with existing suppliers to coordinate requirements, schedule activities, and address issues in a timely manner. May lead guest (suppliers') engineers and / or contractors. There is readily available guidance and support from senior engineers and technical experts.
  • Improvement & Innovation – Identify shortcomings in existing processes, systems, and procedures, and seek ways to optimize and do things more efficiently as a group, but especially at the individual level. Analyze and implement countermeasures to simple problems.
  • Documentation – Prepare moderately complex documentation for review by more senior engineers to record and submit all necessary development / testing / research information as the respective activities mature.
  • Project Management - Work within an established project management plan to achieve specific goals. May support the project schedule, coordinate project meetings, provide regular updates and reports, and contribute in meeting the project budget and timelines.
  • Personal Development – Develop own expertise and capabilities by participating in assessment and development planning activities as well as formal and informal training and coaching.
