About Brian Liebl

I am a results driven director who maintains deep hands on experience and has an analytical mind that exemplifies attention to detail. I have a proven track record of problem solving, communicating effectively, and successful project management. I am equally comfortable diving into a project on my own, or managing a project team of my peers or direct-reports.Throughout my career I have worked with all aspects of an organization to help drive success. Rarely does a project impact only one team and I strive to include all stakeholders in the conversation. I value communication and transparency and my team and I rarely require much oversight - we are trusted to get the job done. My can-do attitude allows me to quickly find the root of a challenge, create a plan for success, and execute that plan with good results.I have had a wide ranging array of experiences in my career and some of the areas of expertise I have developed include:• Process Design• Process Development• Process Control• Product Development• New Product Introduction (NPI)• Building and Developing Business Systems (quality, documentation, data organization)• Problem Solving• Root Cause Investigations (RCI)• Project Management• Leadership & Management (Engineering Management and Shift Management)• Cross-functional Team Leadership• Six-Sigma and Lean ManufacturingI enjoy any and all challenges. My career has primarily been in energy storage and electrochemistry and those experiences have included both automotive (EV) and stationary (grid storage) applications. My roles have ranged from high volume manufacturing, to manufacturing design, to product development. I have worked for large, medium, and small companies and have also worked in the defense industry as an Energetics Manufacturing Engineer. People and organizations rely on me for my ability to find success in a wide range of challenges put before me.My strong work ethic, professional attitude, dedication to quality and customer-focused approach are all things I enjoy bringing to my work every day. Through my leadership, technical expertise, and effective project management I routinely meet the demands of a director.
