Ever wondered how engineering drawings and a few failures can shape an engineer’s career? In this episode of The Engineering Communication Podcast, we sit down with Craig Keys, an alum from Virginia Tech Mechanical Engineering and a Senior Engineer at Caterpillar Inc. Craig takes us behind the scenes of designing drivetrain systems for small wheel loaders, shares why GD&T is a game-changer for engineering drawings and global communication, and explains why failure isn’t just inevitable—it’s essential. Beyond his technical expertise, Craig is passionate about giving back to the community. He served on the board of Lifting Minorities and helped lead scholarship efforts like the George L. Paige Award, ensuring future generations have opportunities to succeed. As an added bonus, tune in to hear his most memorable moments from his time at Tech and how they still influence his work today!
