This Oakland County manufacturer—a longstanding operation serving major clients—needed someone comfortable evaluating designs for manufacturability, cost, and durability while collaborating across departments. The 45-hour weeks and $65K-$78K range in metro Detroit meant competing with automotive suppliers for the same talent pool. First qualified candidate submitted in 5 days; offer accepted in 13.
