   The Engineering Projects organization has project engineers making tooling projects for Aerospace, Automotive, and General Engineering. A Tooling Projects is about developing, and implementing the right tooling package, and tool paths to manufacture the component to the required quality at the lowest cost per component using a new or existing machine. I manage an organization with a global footprint working with Machine Builders, OEM\'s, and Suppliers. There are many interesting developments in areas such as E-mobility, Aerospace, and Energy Generation going forward, requiring new tooling packages!
