  • Support UL certification on new product development.
  • Drive continuous product improvements and iteration through field analysis and root cause investigation.
  • Design and implement production test fixtures for PCBA validation at volume.
  • Manage assigned projects end-to-end; maintain timelines, escalate risks, communicate status proactively.

2. Manufacturing Integration & Cross Functional Collaboration (30%)
  • Own BOM accuracy for assigned products; verify components against design requirements.
  • Validate incoming parts and assemblies against design specifications.
  • Manage component alternate approvals and proactively qualify alternates.
  • Support internal SMT/PCBA process as a technical expert.
  • Forensic analysis of electrical field returns and internal defects; drive corrective actions.
  • Partner with manufacturing on first-run production builds.
  • Establish electrical test methods and procedures.
  • Provide technical guidance to Sales and Support teams as needed.

3. Team G&G (10%)
