• Coordinate with engineers, designers, project teams, suppliers, and other departments on design requirements.
• Review designs for technical accuracy, functionality, manufacturability, constructability, and compliance.
• Conduct basic engineering calculations, material selections, and design evaluations as required.
• Prepare design specifications, bills of materials, technical schedules, and related documentation.
• Incorporate approved design changes and maintain accurate drawing revisions.
• Support prototype development, testing, inspection, and design validation where applicable.
• Identify design issues, technical risks, and potential conflicts and coordinate corrective actions.
• Coordinate with procurement and suppliers regarding technical specifications and materials.
• Provide technical support to production, installation, maintenance, and project teams.
• Assist in resolving site or production-related technical issues.
• Participate in design reviews, project meetings, and technical discussions.
• Maintain design records, drawings, calculations, approvals, and engineering documentation.
• Ensure designs comply with applicable engineering standards, safety requirements, company procedures, and customer specifications.
• Support value engineering and continuous improvement initiatives to improve product performance, quality, and cost efficiency.
