Overview

This onsite role is based at WHQ and is not open to relocation. Candidates should be able to start ASAP. The role supports the AirMI team with a special project in shoe component manufacturing, designing mechanical tools for high-volume manufacturing. Key priorities include transferring SQUs for airsoles and transitioning manufacturing processes from legacy equipment to new equipment.

Responsibilities

  • Support or lead development of new Air products and the daily manufacturing operations required to produce them. Collaborate with teammates to implement designs and solutions.
  • Attend a morning stand-up to determine the day's priorities and plan future tasks with cross-functional teammates.
  • Allocate roughly 65% of time to prioritized project work, 25% to improving the existing product portfolio, and 10% to creative exploration and functional initiatives.
  • Use concept sketches, 3D design software, engineering and machine design knowledge, and hands-on experience to design, refine, and document tooling designs and machine components.
  • Work with designers, developers, engineers, and tooling centers to ensure designs consider manufacturability of both the final product and related tooling.
  • Communicate progress using various methods to keep key stakeholders informed.
  • Collaborate with internal customers, external vendors, and global teams to ensure designs meet project needs.
  • Stay current on critical skills through on-site training, conferences, or other activities to maintain performance.
