  • 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
