Lead efforts of internal and external mechanical design for manufacturing review with global manufacturing teams in all new product launch activities. Conducts operational feasibility studies for new product and new manufacturing process introduction in the factory environment. Engages management and teams to determine feasibility/potential of projects  

Represents Worldwide Operations from a product perspective. Creates factory strategies and plans for Worldwide Operations based on product plans and roadmaps. Utilizes metrics to improve new production, introduction process and product quality, at launch and throughout life of the program. Ensures Operations achieves Ready to Ship Release and transactions into production/sustaining. Utilizes Program Review Process (PrP)/Phase Gate Process to transition products from definition through to the sustaining phase. Drives action plans and strategies to reduce overall manufacturing transformation cost. Drives quality improvements by risk assessment/mitigation eliminating sources of defects in the design, supplier, new product introduction and manufacturing processes. Drives continuous improvement in PrP process, product manufacturability and flexibility, and operations cycle time and quality.
