• Identify manufacturability concerns on new designs and drive databased feedback to design engineering.

• Recommend product or process improvements to reduce risk and defect potential.

• Lead and participate in DFX/DFMA activities for new products.

• Review and approve PPAP submissions for accuracy and completeness.

• Create and support PFMEA activities with suppliers.

• Conduct Gage R&R and MSA evaluations with Moog and supplier teams.

• Analyze process capability data and drive improvement where needed.

• Support Moog's Zero-Defect journey using AS9145 methodologies.

• Travel up to 35%.
