You’ll have a solid understanding of electrical, mechanical and process engineering principles and the relevant product development experience with a hands-on approach to solving problems; in-depth understanding of how to ensure the efficient operation of a manufacturing facility; and the confidence to stand your ground where there is a quality issue.
