Essential Responsibilities
- Blade PDE Standards & Requirements Governance: Develop, own, and maintain standardized design specifications and requirements. Proactively close gaps in design standards, ensuring consistent application across blade development and manufacturing.
- Proces Excellence : Drive the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital solutions to automate workflows, enhance documentation quality, and increase efficiency within the PDE team.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Work closely with other PDE Technical Leader and other engineering experts to harmonize design specifications with CAD/PDE processes, ensuring a robust "single source of truth."
- Technical Leadership: Provide technical leadership for Product Definition Engineering across NPI, NTI, and design change programs. Lead technical problem-solving within PDE in close collaboration with blade engineering experts and execution teams.
- Governance & Validation: Review and approve ECNs, ensuring all technical solutions are validated, manufacturable, and compliant with business standards.
- Competency Development: Strengthen organizational competency in GD&T (ASME Y14.5), stack-up standards, mold/equipment input specifications, and BOM management.
- Mentorship & Growth: Mentor and guide the PDE team and contingent workers. Drive the institutionalization of knowledge through best practices, lessons learned, and standardized work instructions.
- Execution: Maintain hands-on involvement in critical PDE tasks, specifically supporting NTI programs and high-stakes technical deliverables.
Qualifications / Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Aerospace, Manufacturing), Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline.
- Significant experience in Product Definition Engineering, specifically within fiber-reinforced plastics or complex blade design.
- Strong hands-on experience with CATIA (including composite design) and Teamcenter (PLM/BOM management).
- Deep expertise in GD&T principles (ASME Y14.5) and mechanical tolerance stack-up analysis.
- Proven track record in driving technical transformation, process improvement, and the development of engineering standards.
- Demonstrated ability to influence technical decisions across cross-functional teams (Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Sourcing).
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to mentor junior staff and contingent workers.
Desired Characteristics
- In-depth knowledge of manufacturing-oriented product definition and composite manufacturing processes.
- Experience in a production or factory environment, supporting prototype builds or 0-series production startup.
- Strategic mindset with the ability to translate fleet feedback and manufacturing data into actionable design requirements.
- Proven ability to lead change management initiatives and drive the adoption of new methods and tools within an engineering organization.
Relocation Assistance Provided: No
