  • Identify opportunities for process improvements and lead initiatives that increase efficiency, quality, and consistency across engineering activities.
  • Develop and implement engineering guidelines, work instructions, templates, and standards to support global knowledge sharing and standardization.
  • Support the development of engineering tools and systems and drive the adoption of automation solutions that improve productivity and accuracy.
  • Define requirements for newly developed structural components and support related approval and compliance processes.
  • Act as a key interface between R&D, Engineering, Production, and Installation teams to ensure successful implementation of improvements and changes.
  • Lead and develop the global Structural Expert Community, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing across the organization.
  • Apply Lean principles and continuous improvement methodologies to optimize workflows and engineering processes.
