  • 4-6 years of well-rounded experience in various NPI functions, including manufacturing engineering, equipment engineering, and process engineering.
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field. A Master's degree is a plus.

  • Self-starter with the ability to adapt, improvise, and problem solve.
  • Experience working with large CMs (Contract Manufacturers), preferably in the US, Mexico, and Asia.
  • Strong background in new product launch environments, with extensive experience bringing products from concept to first customer shipment.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ever-changing startup environment and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Deep breadth of experience working with contract manufactures and component suppliers ranging from finished goods assemblies to mechanical and electrical components.
  • Enthusiasm for innovation and a strong desire to contribute to the development of cutting-edge products.
  • Strong knowledge of continuous improvement methodologies.
