Job Description

This role supports end‑to‑end engineering change management for complex electromechanical systems transitioning from pilot to full‑scale production. The Engineering Change Management Specialist ensures design changes are properly documented, reviewed, approved, and implemented across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, compliance, and field operations.

The position manages Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) within a PLM system, validates BOM structures and revision integrity, coordinates cross‑functional reviews, and supports formal Change Control Board (CCB) processes. This role partners closely with engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, compliance, and field teams to maintain speed, quality, and regulatory alignment throughout the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

* Manage the full ECO lifecycle within a PLM system, ensuring accurate documentation, review, approval, and release

* Review and validate ECO documentation, affected items, BOM structures, AML accuracy, and revision control

* Coordinate cross‑functional reviews with Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Compliance, Finance, and Field Operations

* Support Change Control Boards (CCBs) by preparing change impact assessments related to cost, lead time, inventory, and field deployment

* Ensure engineering changes are implemented consistently across manufacturing, suppliers, and field operations

* Maintain data integrity across PLM, CAD, and related systems

* Monitor change cycle times and support continuous process improvement

* Support material, regulatory, and regional compliance documentation as part of the change process

MUST HAVES:

* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Industrial, or Systems Engineering (or equivalent experience)

* 5-7+ years of experience in engineering change management (hands-on evaluation and execution of changes within production environments)

* Strong experience evaluating Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) including assessing change criteria, documentation quality, BOM impacts, and compliance requirements

* Hands-on experience working in Agile PLM (or similar), specifically on the front end of change workflows (not system configuration, data admin, or backend development)

* Strong understanding of ECO/ECR/ECN workflows, BOM management, and revision control processes

* Experience reviewing and validating BOM changes, affected items, and multi-level assemblies

* Experience supporting electromechanical products, including mechanical assemblies, PCBAs, cable assemblies, and integrated systems

* Knowledge of manufacturing processes (injection molding, sheet metal, PCBA, cable assemblies, electromechanical assemblies) sufficient to assess change impacts

* Experience coordinating with Supply Chain, Materials Compliance, and Regulatory Compliance teams during change review processes

* Understanding of material compliance requirements (RoHS, REACH) and supporting required compliance documentation

* Experience with change quality checks, compliance validation, and documentation completeness prior to approval/release

* Strong written communication skills for technical documentation

* Experience with disposition management (Use As‑Is, Rework, Scrap) and inventory impact analysis

* Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office and data tracking/reporting tools

NICE TO HAVE

SKILLS:

* Experience with Solid Works or Dassault 3DExperience CAD/PDM integration with PLM

* Familiarity with regional compliance requirements (CE marking, UL/CSA, IEC standards) for multi‑region product deployment

* Experience with SREA (Supplier Requested Engineering Assistance)…
