Send us a textEmma McFadden is a senior engineering technician at a large medical device company in their Sleep Therapy new product development group. Emma holds an associate’s degree in electronics engineering technology, a bachelor’s degree in technical management, and a master’s degree in project management.In this episode Emma shares with us how engineers can most effectively work with technicians by employing an “elbow to elbow” strategy. She also provides insight into how engineers can improve product development outcomes by gathering information from the technicians, who are generally the “front line workers” interfacing directly with the technology as it is being developed.Aaron Moncur, hostAbout Being An Engineer The Being An Engineer podcast is a repository for industry knowledge and a tool through which engineers learn about and connect with relevant companies, technologies, people resources, and opportunities.
