• Prepare and maintain BOMs, PFDs, P&IDs, and technical documentation in PLM systems (Oracle PD Cloud, Windchill).
• Perform system sizing and calculations (pressure drop, flow balancing, NPSH margin, valve Cv selection).
• Support prototype builds and validation testing, including pressure, leak, flow/thermal, cleanliness, and condensation/dew point checks.
• Work with suppliers to review manufacturability, cost considerations, and quality standards.
• Collaborate with global engineering, operations, supply chain, and quality teams to ensure successful project execution.
• Provide input from custom orders and ETO projects into NPDI modules to support continuous improvement.
