Design and procure tools for cab and vehicle assembly in collaboration with cross-functional stakeholders, gather inputs and work as a team - fastening tools, lifting systems (crane systems and below-the-hook fixtures), material supply carts, fixtures, jigs, assembly aids, hand toolsImplement tooling and equipment with a “zero disturbance” mindset in operations – zero safety issues, zero quality issues, zero un-planned downtime - promote manufacturing safety, ergonomics, and efficiency.Apply tooling and maintenance standards and best practices when designing, re-designing, or purchasing new equipment for cab and vehicle assembly – utilize previous learnings to maximize equipment reliability and availabilityActive participation in new product development to give inputs on tooling solutions and interface to product – mitigate risk by developing tooling concurrently with product design.Participate in major industrial projects – investigation, planning, design, execution, startup – act as the technical expert for equipment installations and work to implement cost-effective solutions that meet production, quality, and safety needs – these solutions can be developed and built in-house or sourced with purchasing team – as needed, provide guidance to project management teams on budget and timeframe of tooling implementation for new product introduction and major industrial projects.Support EEM projects and design reviews throughout equipment development – secure the tooling and maintenance deliverables are met and escalate issues to project leader.Perform kaizen and use MPS problem solving tools in PDCA cycle – this is done with engineering, production, and maintenance teams to develop long term solutions to problems with existing equipment in the factory.React to issues impacting production with a sense of urgency, promptly assessing the issue, developing a feasible action plan, and following it through to successful completion.Participation in the global engineering networks to develop optimal process and tool designs across all sites; work collaboratively with production engineering team to implement GTO standards and best practices in the plant in line with the One Factory concept.Coach and train junior tooling engineers to build competency in the designated competence or technical area.
