• Building SP Return of Experience (REX) and collaborating with product engineering to adjust designs when necessary

• Managing industrial risks through Process FMEA and driving improvement action plans

• Defining requirements and rules (Design for Manufacturing) for associated tooling to enable production

• Qualifying product/process pairs and industrial means in alignment with design requirements
