• Vendor Coordination and Visits
  • Visit vendor facilities to check manufacturing progress, quality, and delivery timelines.
  • Cross-check parts and assemblies against drawings, dimensions, and specifications during vendor visits.
  • Coordinate with vendors for updates on pending jobs and manufacturing status.
  • Share vendor visit observations and updates with the internal team through structured notes or reports.
• Drawing and Documentation Support
  • Read and interpret mechanical drawings to verify dimensions, tolerances, and fitment requirements.
  • Maintain manufacturing trackers, checklists, status reports, and issue logs.
  • Use MS Office tools such as Excel, Word, and PowerPoint for documentation and reporting.
  • Support documentation of manufacturing progress, vendor visits, inspections, and pending actions.
• Cross-Functional Coordination
  • Coordinate with the Mechanical, Procurement, Manufacturing, and Quality teams to keep activities on track.
  • Follow up on dependencies affecting manufacturing and delivery.
  • Escalate critical delays, quality concerns, or manufacturing issues to the Reporting Manager in a timely manner.
  • Support internal coordination between design, procurement, and manufacturing teams when required.

  • Working proficiency in MS Office Suite, particularly Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
  • Basic understanding of manufacturing processes such as machining, fabrication, assembly, and fitment.
  • Ability to verify basic component dimensions and manufacturing requirements.
  • Willingness to travel locally within Pune for vendor visits.
• Good to Have
  • Working knowledge of CAD software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Fusion 360, or similar tools.
  • Prior exposure to a manufacturing, fabrication, machine shop, workshop, or production environment through coursework, projects, or internships.
