About the Role
You will establish and run an NPI site for prototype and validation builds. You will define assembly, integration, rework, and test processes; drive design-for-manufacturing reviews; manage design transfers to contract manufacturers; lead failure analysis and RMA recovery; and use process data to stabilize launches and production ramps.
Requirements
- Hands-on manufacturing, process, or NPI engineering experience taking hardware products from prototype to volume.
- Ability to create documented, repeatable build and test processes.
- Experience with debug, failure analysis, root-cause analysis, and issue closure.
- Knowledge of ownership structures, phase gates, and exit criteria.
- Ability to communicate with internal teams and external contract manufacturers.
- Eligibility to access U.S. export-controlled technology.
Responsibilities
- Stand up and run the NPI site for EVT and DVT builds.
- Define and maintain process specifications for assembly, integration, rework, and test.
- Drive DFM, DFA, and tolerance reviews during design.
- Establish build-readiness and phase-exit criteria from EVT through mass production.
- Own design transfer to contract manufacturers, including tooling, documentation, and line readiness.
- Lead failure analysis and RMA recovery.
- Set process-capability targets and track performance using SPC, DOE, and yield data.
