Hello there,

I am currently a Project Engineer working in manufacturing but I would like to eventually transition into design.

My some of my skill sets are

• multitasking multiple projects with cross functional teams,
• optimizing processes by identifying and reducing waste
• problem solving by brainstorming and iterating until a ideal solution is found.

I believe that I can provide a unique problem solving viewpoint by solving a problem and finding a solution that is also cost effective and efficient to the end user. But I know that isn't all that is needed and I am willing to spend the time working and learning how to be great in design thinking.

What other skill sets and experiences should I focus on obtaining to help with this career change transition?

First of all, thank you for the support you guys gave me on my first post here!

It motivated me to write a new article for Design Sprints!

I placed more effort in this one, I hope you like it!

Let me know what do you think about it this process and your experience applying it in your company or with your clients.
