• NPI Leadership and Governance.
• Lead and develop the NPI Engineering team, including managers, assistant managers, and engineers.
• Establish standardized NPI processes, stage-gate reviews, engineering deliverables, governance controls, and performance metrics.
• Ensure clear ownership and accountability throughout the complete NPI lifecycle.
• Drive consistent execution across new customers, new products, product variants, upgrades, and major engineering changes.
• Support implementation of the One NPI Team operating model and effective resource utilization across projects.
• Provide regular project portfolio updates, risk assessments, and escalation reports to senior management.
• New Product Industrialization.
• Lead engineering activities from project award through prototype, validation, qualification, ramp-up, and mass-production transfer.
• Ensure completion of DFM, DFA and DFT reviews; PCB penalization and manufacturing feasibility; process-flow and production-line design; and equipment, tooling, fixture and test readiness.
• Ensure work instructions, manufacturing documentation, process validation, qualification, and capacity assessments are completed before production release.
• Ensure customer specifications and technical requirements are correctly translated into manufacturing processes and controls.
• Approve engineering readiness before prototype, pilot, qualification, and mass-production builds.
• Ensure structured handover of products, processes, documentation, and open issues to Sustaining Engineering and Operations.
• Project Execution and Cross-Functional Coordination.
• Work closely with Business Unit/Program Management, Product Design, Process Engineering, Quality, Test Engineering, Supply Chain, Production, and Sustaining Engineering.
• Support development and review of project schedules, resource plans, engineering deliverables, and technical milestones.
• Lead NPI technical reviews, readiness meetings, daily war rooms, and issue-escalation activities.
• Coordinate engineering activities across multiple concurrent and technically complex NPI programs.
• Ensure dependencies, technical risks, and resource constraints are identified and addressed early.
• Support customer technical discussions, design reviews, audits, and project-status meetings as required.
• Technical Risk and Problem-Solving.
• Identify product, process, equipment, material, test, and manufacturing risks during the early NPI stages.
• Drive structured problem-solving using 8D, DMAIC, DOE, root-cause analysis, and statistical methods.
• Ensure PFMEA, Control Plans, process validations, MSA, GR&R, capability studies, and qualification evidence are completed as applicable.
• Lead resolution of critical technical issues affecting quality, cost, delivery, manufacturability, and production readiness.
• Ensuring lessons learned and corrective actions are incorporated into future projects and engineering standards.
• Operational and Business Performance.
• Drive achievement of NPI targets for project schedule adherence, engineering deliverable completion, build readiness, first-pass yield, qualification, customer approval, on-time transfer, and cost performance.
• Monitor NPI workload, engineering capacity, competencies, and resource allocation.
• Support quotation, technical feasibility, capital investment, equipment planning, and engineering cost estimation.
• Control NPI engineering expenses and capital requirements within approved budgets.
• Implement improvements that reduce NPI cycle time, cost, technical risk, and production instability.
• People and Capability Development.
• Recruit, coach, develop, and retain capable NPI engineering personnel.
• Define competency requirements and individual development plans for the team.
• Build technical and leadership succession plans for critical positions.
• Promote cross-functional teamwork, customer focus, ownership, and disciplined execution.
