Lynzie's Job

I have been at my new job for a little over 2 months now. I am relieved to say that I am finally getting the hang of things. When I first started here I was asked to step in on projects right away, which seemed like a pretty daunting task.

There are two project engineers here, myself and John Kraynik. We are responsible for all new projects. The first thing we do when launching a project, is to evaluate the customer’s requirements and any quotes we have received from our material suppliers and tool shops. Once we have determined the feasibility of a project we establish a timeline and get the tool shops started on our projects. There is still work to be done here even though we are not the ones actually constructing the mold. We have to prepare for the mold to come back to our plant, setup the materials that will be needed, keep the customer informed of the progress on their mold, and any other details that are crucial to this mold running in our facility.

The workload may be very intimidating, but I believe my decision to come here will only make me a better engineer.
