**What your background should look like**:
- RESPONSIBILITIES- Provide leadership and manage the complete product development life cycle (starting from voice of customer, ideation, Design Conceptualization, Creation of product specifications, 3D design, Prototyping, Product testing, Product qualification, Project Execution & Sustenance till product end of life)
- Build a deep understanding of market and customer needs by fostering a connection between the business engineering teams and the customer engineering teams
- Work closely with customer/sales/PM in getting the right and clear VOC (voice of customer), make engineering evaluation/proposal to customer.
- Follow LEANPD Project Process to support project team from PDE perspective to complete Project (NPI or Sustaining) on time, quality and budget.
Drive the development and release of product, scale-up through stage-gate reviews, ensuring milestone commitments are maintained.
- Technical support to customer, sales, PM and plant team.
Conduct necessary test, engineering analysis, trouble shooting and verification.
- Work with global manufacturing resources, procurement, and outside suppliers to meet all TE technical, quality, and cost objectives
- Introduce breakthrough technologies by partnering technically with our customers worldwide and with our TE Global competency centers to enhance business revenue & growth.
- Bridge between the NPD team and plant team for new product launch in HMO plant or transfer from other plant, provide local support form engineering to move the new launching smoothly.
- Lead the engineering change qualification together with cross-function team and maintain the engineering documents in system to the latest version.
- EDUCATION/KNOWLEDGE- Bachelor's degree (Mechanical) required and Master is preferred
- 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), modelling, Geometric Dimension & Tolerancing (GD&T), electrical & electronic design and Simulation
