My wife and I are considering moving to Charlotte from Boston. I have an analytical background in mechanical engineering but moved into product cost engineering a year ago focusing on cost reduction strategies across manufacturing and sourcing. Also most always worked in Aerospace and Defense but open to roles in industry, consulting, or finance but not sure where to start. Any suggestions are welcome!
