  • Support development and maintenance of standard design practices, engineering templates, reusable design blocks, and technical processes to improve speed and consistency.
  • Participate in technical risk reviews during proposal development and identify potential manufacturing, compliance, cost, or schedule risks.
  • Coordinate with sourcing and supply chain teams on long lead item considerations, component availability, approved manufacturer lists, and alternate component strategies.
  • Support customer technical review meetings and provide technical clarification throughout the proposal process.
  • Support quotation schedules and proposal response timelines through effective prioritization and coordination.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on quotation accuracy, cycle time reduction, BOM accuracy, standardization, and design efficiency.
  • Support development and maintenance of engineering KPIs, proposal tracking metrics, and technical documentation processes.
  • Provide technical mentoring and guidance to junior engineers and designers.
  • Support transition of awarded projects into execution teams through structured technical handoff processes.
