• Conducting design reviews as part of the Product Development Process (PDP), taking into account procurement and manufacturing considerations
• Responsibility for process and product data evaluation during qualification; project planning for new development and series projects; and leading improvement initiatives such as cycle-time reduction, cost saving programs, and NCC reduction for serial components
• Supplier management of casting suppliers—in terms of quality, cost, and lead time
• Assessment of existing suppliers and supporting the selection of new suppliers and driving their development
