New Product Manufacturing Engineer

HireSetu's note

Seven to ten years, and it means it

The stated range puts this firmly in experienced-hire territory. Nothing here is built for a fresher or a three-year engineer, and the work isn't picked up from scratch on the job. You need to have owned BOMs and part numbers in a hardware manufacturing setting, capital equipment ideally, and to have run engineering changes from request to release.

A design or process engineering background with occasional BOM edits will feel like a stretch. Configuration management, PLM administration or supplier quality with heavy change involvement maps far better.

The change codes carry the work

ECO, NSR, ESW, Config ESW, OCR, ILTR, SPS, CCB. These are the transaction types that move a change from an engineering decision out to the factory floor and into the field, and most of the daily work sits inside them. Revise how your current employer runs each step: who raises it, what gate it clears, how effectivity is set, how manufacturing is notified.

Applied has its own names and its own lifecycle systems, TCE/Core+ among them. The point is being able to map your process onto theirs out loud. Teamcenter, Agile or Windchill experience transfers; the specific system you'll learn on the job. CAD, MLO and DMU appear as basic knowledge, so this isn't a design seat and you shouldn't pitch it as one.

Travel, floor support and scope

Twenty percent travel is stated, Bangalore onsite, relocation eligible. Managed builds and contract manufacturer support sit in the scope, and builds run to the factory's clock, not yours. Ask where the travel goes and whether floor support is staffed outside normal hours.

Two things to settle before you sign: whether you own a defined assembly or module, or pick up whatever change lands, and how many product structures one engineer carries at a time.
