  • High degree of competence in CAD (preferably SolidWorks), or similar tools within a collaborative configuration-controlled environment (PDM/PLM).
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to tackling engineering challenges.
  • Excellent interpersonal and verbal and written communication skills.
  • Experience in the production and management of electrical and/or mechanical product lifecycle management (PLM) and engineering drawings.
