  • Collaborate with Project Management, Estimating, Manufacturing, and Account teams to ensure technical alignment.
  • Identify engineering risks early and provide mitigation options to protect schedule and quality.
  • Maintain clear, timely communication with all stakeholders, including off‑hours coordination as required.
  • Evaluate materials, construction methods, and manufacturing requirements.
  • Provide value engineering options where appropriate.
  • Support prototype reviews, shop questions, and manufacturing handoff activities.
  • Ensure adherence to idX engineering standards and documentation protocols.
  • Maintain organized engineering files, revisions, and supporting data.
  • Document changes, clarifications, and decisions for internal and China teams.
  • Support final engineering package releases and production turnover requirements.

Qualifications
