Summary
Motivated Manufacturing Engineering Technician looking to take the next step up. I have great reliability and the ability to learn things very quickly. I have a working knowledge of the processes implemented currently at AAM and would be a great fit to migrate over to the role of manufacturing engineer until I graduate in May 2025. This is a great opportunity for the company and myself to improve and grow in a mutually benficial way.
