ROLE OBJECTIVE:
As a manager of a product development team, you will be responsible for leading the engineering organization in performing research and development work according to customer requirements and the technology roadmap.

This role is remote, but we’re looking for someone based in the Austin, TX area—or open to relocating there. We’re happy to support you through the transition if relocation is needed.

• Create, maintain, and realize a technology roadmap and align with the cross-functional team.
• Work closely with the customer/sales/PM in getting the right and clear VOC (voice of customer)
• Follow LEANPD Project Process to support the project team from the PDE perspective to complete the Project (NPI or Sustaining) on time, with quality, and within budget.
• Drive the development and release of products, scale-up through stage-gate reviews, ensuring milestone commitments are maintained.
• Develop and manage product documentation, including product requirements, design documents, and test plans/reports.
• Work with global manufacturing resources, procurement, and outside suppliers to meet all TE technical, quality, and cost objectives.
• Work closely with suppliers to identify and qualify new components and technologies.
• Conduct thorough design verification and validation testing to ensure the product meets the required specifications.
• Collaborate with manufacturing teams to ensure a smooth transition to production.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers and technicians to develop their skills and knowledge.
• Conduct competitive analysis and market research to identify opportunities for innovation and differentiation.
• Build a deep understanding of market and customer needs by fostering a connection between the business engineering teams and the customer engineering teams.
• Maintain a system-level understanding of customer application and the product design/concept necessary for providing a solution to the customers’ expectations.
• Technical support to customers, sales, PM, and the plant team. Conduct necessary tests, engineering analysis, troubleshooting, and verification.
• Introduce breakthrough technologies by partnering technically with our customers worldwide and with our TE Global competency centers to enhance business revenue & growth.
• Apply engineering best practices to reduce cost and sustain existing products to meet customers’ cost targets.

• Bachelor's or master’s degree in mechanical or electrical engineering.
• Strong understanding of mechanical and electrical engineering principles.
• Experience with product development processes, including design, prototyping, and testing.
• Project management skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Knowledge about various phases of product realization and product development
• Knowledge of state-of-the-art design tools such as 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD), modeling, Geometric Dimension & Tolerancing (GD&T), electrical & electronic design, and Simulation
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes (machining, molding, stamping, plating, etc.)
• Knowledge of material (metal/plastic) properties will be a plus.
• Familiarity with quality tools (FMEA, 6sigma, DOE, 8D…) will be a plus.
• Minimum of 15…
