Full Job Description
Job Description :
This role operates as a technical bridge between Engineering, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing to ensure that component selections and mechanical designs are robust, producible, and aligned with supplier capabilities prior to production release.
The position is expected to identify and mitigate risks early, particularly in component selection, tolerancing, and manufacturability, to reduce downstream reliability issues, supply disruptions, and design rework.
Roles & Responsibilities:
Participate in DVT readiness and design reviews to identify component risks, manufacturability concerns, and documentation gaps.
Support design transfer activities to ensure readiness for manufacturing release.
Evaluate lifecycle status (NRND/EOL), supplier risk, and availability
Recommend alternates and mitigation strategies.
Support Release of OTS and custom parts
Review drawings for dimensional accuracy, GD&T (ASME Y14.5), and tolerance stack-up risks.
ssess manufacturability relative to supplier capabilities.
Identify over-constrained tolerances and yield risks.
Provide actionable DFM/DFA feedback.
ct as liaison between Engineering and Supply Chain.
Support supplier technical discussions.
ssist in resolving build and early production issues.
Support an effort of the supply chain activity by identifying long lead time items and engaging with the suppliers for potential cross-references.
Support lifecycle advancement of components in Propel by ensuring complete specifications, compliance, and approved sourcing for pre-production readiness.
Ensure alignment of component data across Propel/NetSuite.
Support traceability and audit readiness.
Requirements :
Bachelor's Degree in Engineering (BSME preferred).
Must have a mechanical/electro-mechanical aptitude.
