    Serve as the critical communication conduit between internal Studio/CMF/Design Quality teams and external vendors, ensuring accurate translation of complex design standards, texture direction, and dual/complex texture executions into the tool steel.
  • Standard Compliance:
    Verify and document supplier adherence to program-specific "Critical to Styling" (CTS) catalogs and established Bill of Design criteria.
  • Reporting:
    Provide immediate, high-fidelity situational awareness and objective reporting of emerging texture and appearance execution challenges to internal Craftsmanship and Design Quality leadership.

  • Appearance Proficiency:
    Exceptional visual discernment, including the capability to pass a
    Munsell Hue Test with Superior Discrimination
    or equivalent appearance evaluation standards.
  • Autonomy and Influence:
    Proven ability to operate completely autonomously in a remote setting and effectively influence supplier partners to deliver quality outcomes without direct authority.
