The engineer will work at the customer location and collaborate with cross-functional teams to support product development, sustaining engineering, manufacturing, and production builds. The role requires strong analytical capability, practical problem-solving skills, and a commitment to product quality, reliability, and timely issue resolution. Key ResponsibilitiesCircuit & Schematic Design * Design, develop, review, and modify analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronic circuits. * Create and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, design records, and engineering documentation. * Support design changes and engineering change implementation while ensuring technical accuracy and traceability. * Participate in design reviews and recommend improvements for performance, reliability, manufacturability, and serviceability. Root Cause Analysis & Troubleshooting * Perform structured root cause analysis and failure investigations for electrical and electronic systems. * Troubleshoot complex circuit-level, PCB-level, subsystem-level, and system-level issues. * Define and implement corrective and preventive actions, and drive technical issues through closure. * Analyze production defects, field failures, and customer-reported issues using data-driven problem-solving methods. Component Evaluation, Testing & Validation * Evaluate alternate or replacement components for obsolescence, availability, reliability, and cost considerations. * Conduct electrical, functional, and reliability testing of components, PCB assemblies, and electronic subsystems. * Validate form, fit, function, interface compatibility, and compliance with applicable design specifications. * Prepare test plans, document results, summarize technical findings, and provide qualification recommendations. Production Build & Manufacturing Support * Provide hands-on engineering support during prototype, pilot, production, and sustaining builds. * Partner with manufacturing and operations teams to resolve build issues and maintain production continuity. * Support production readiness through design reviews, test coverage assessment, and risk identification. * Drive continuous improvements in manufacturability, yield, quality, and troubleshooting effectiveness. Cross-Functional Collaboration * Work closely with Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Procurement, Service, and Supplier teams. * Coordinate with global stakeholders and external suppliers to resolve design, component, and production challenges. * Communicate technical risks, findings, recommendations, and action plans clearly to engineering and program stakeholders. * Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior engineers when required.
