• Create BOMs (Bill of Materials) and detailed production drawings to support the manufacturing process.
• Modify and update technical drawings to reflect changes in product design, materials, or manufacturing processes.
• Collaborate with sourcing teams to select materials and finishes that are suitable for mass production while meeting aesthetic and cost targets.
