Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing Engineering or a related discipline.
- 3-5 years of experience in a manufacturing engineering role.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office and experience with ERP and PLM systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Teamcenter, Enovia).
- Familiarity with 3D CAD software such as CATIA V5/V6, UGNX, or ProE.
- Experience working with large structures and Determinate Assembly (DA) techniques.
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, models, and specifications. GD&T Level 1 training is preferred but not required.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to convey complex technical information clearly.
