  • Continue to iterate on each, striving for world-class quality and processes.
  • Create and maintain detailed standard operating procedures for CAD processes to achieve production efficiencies and drive productivity.
  • Develop virtual build process initiatives to manage projects from design-for-manufacture through the virtual fabrication process and its implementation into the Plant production system.
  • Create detailed quality control protocols for the virtual build process; conduct tests and quality assurance checks to verify the quality of information output (autonomous quality).
  • Spearhead various research and development initiatives to identify new methods and opportunities for process improvement.
  • Communicate and collaborate with other managers, suppliers, and contractors.
  • Prepare and deliver various Plant Virtual Build/CAD presentations, both internally and externally, as required for business needs.
