About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Serve as the primary engineering interface with contract manufacturers and key manufacturing suppliers
- Coordinate prototype, pilot, and production builds with internal engineering teams and external manufacturing partners
- Develop and maintain the NPI plan from prototype builds through production launch and ramp
- Coordinate engineering builds and control build objectives, configurations, materials, documentation, and issues
- Lead DFM/DFA reviews with Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, suppliers, and manufacturing partners
- Identify manufacturing risks early and drive resolution before production release
- Develop manufacturing requirements for assembly processes, fixtures, tooling, programming, calibration, and production testing
- Develop manufacturing-test strategy with Electrical and Firmware Engineering
- Coordinate BOM readiness, approved components, manufacturing documentation, drawings, work instructions, and engineering changes
- Ensure engineering changes are communicated and implemented by manufacturing partners
- Establish production acceptance criteria and manufacturing quality controls with the contract manufacturer
- Support PFMEA, control plans, process validation, first-article activities, and production-readiness reviews
- Support supplier qualification and technical evaluation of manufacturing processes
- Maintain build issue lists and drive root-cause and corrective-action closure
- Track yield, defects, rework, cycle time, and manufacturing issues during ramp
- Drive serviceability, replaceable-assembly strategy, service disconnects, component identification, maintenance, and field-replacement considerations into product design
- Coordinate with Verification, Compliance, and Quality to keep production configurations consistent with validated product configurations
Requirements
What you’ll need- BS in Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering, or equivalent technical discipline
- 4+ years of NPI, manufacturing, or product-development experience with complex electromechanical products
- Demonstrated experience taking physical products from engineering prototypes through production launch
- Experience working directly with contract manufacturers and external suppliers
- Strong understanding of DFM/DFA, BOMs, ECOs, drawings, assembly processes, fixtures, tooling, production testing, and configuration control
- Experience supporting engineering validation, design validation, pilot, and production builds
- Working knowledge of PFMEA, control plans, root-cause analysis, 8D-style problem solving, and manufacturing quality methods
- Comfortable working across Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, Systems, Quality, Operations, and Supply Chain
- Experience with low-to-medium-volume complex electromechanical equipment is preferred
- Regulated-product experience is preferred
- Preferred knowledge of manufacturing-test strategy and programming/calibration processes
- Preferred experience with supplier qualification
- Preferred experience tracking yield, defects, and cycle time during ramp
- Preferred knowledge of regulated-product quality practices
