About the role
- This role focuses on new product introduction (NPI) and is critical in ensuring manufacturability, quality, and testability across electromechanical subsystems and sub-assemblies including hardware, sensors, actuators, cables, and integration modules.
- Troubleshoot and resolve issues at the sub-system and system level, conducting structured root cause analysis for mechanical or electrical issues.
- Contribute to environmental, reliability, and lifecycle testing plans and setups (e.g., burn-in, thermal cycling, HALT).
Responsibilities
- This is a highly cross-functional role, partnering with electrical and mechanical design, test engineering, quality, and supply chain-along with EMS and mechanical suppliers-to ensure rapid, repeatable, and high-quality production launches.
- Lead NPI activities across multiple product lines, managing the transition from design to production for various electromechanical subassemblies.
- Own DFM/DFA/DFT efforts during early design phases to influence product architecture and ensure manufacturing scalability.
- Develop and release work instructions, BOMs, process flows, test procedures, and fixture/tooling designs across prototype and pilot builds.
- Drive build readiness, supporting Proto/EVT/DVT/PVT activities including line bring-up, process validation, and pilot build execution.
- Partner with EMS providers and component suppliers to drive first-pass yield, throughput, and process capability.
- Hands-on experience in supporting and troubleshooting the design, assembly, and testing of electro-mechanical systems utilizing data analysis and lean methods.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field, with 7+ years of relevant experience.
