·  • Produce accurate 3D models, preliminary layouts, production details and assembly drawings while meeting drawing release dates.
·  • Prepare drawings and other engineering data required for the manufacturing of the product and data submittal to the customer.
·  • Produce ECNs (Engineering Change Notice) as required to support manufacturing, customers, quality, and certification.
·  • Release 3D models and drawings, maintaining data integrity according to CDE1002 and CDE1004.
·  • Act as a shop liaison during initial production of new product designs to prevent and/or solve any engineering issue that may arise. o Identify problems and develop solutions.

·  • Collaborate with Supply Chain to examine supplier lead times, costs and availability for parts and tooling necessary to manufacture the product being designed.
