Change orders are the job
The core of the work is the ECO. A part changes, someone raises the change, and you create it in Agile, route it for review, track it, release it, and distribute it to the sites that build the product. Between those steps you chase process engineers, materials teams and requestors until it moves. Part numbers, AVLs and BOMs in Agile and Baan are the same kind of work: records that production and purchasing depend on being right.
Freshers see operations engineering and expect design. The EEE or ECE grounding is there so you can read a drawing and work out which parts and documents a change touches. English is marked mandatory because most of this happens in writing, to requestors and customers, and a clear short email does more for you than a fast one.
The shift is 5 pm to 2 am. That is a real constraint on family, classes and sleep, and the ride home at 2 am is worth sorting before you accept.
The roles this leads into
Change control sits between engineering and materials, so two years of it teaches you how a product update travels from a drawing to a factory floor. That knowledge carries into NPI coordination, materials planning and supply chain work at EMS companies, where teams spend their days on the same change flow.
When you apply, put the tools near the top: Agile and Baan by name, then BOM and AVL handling, then MS Office and Outlook. Baan is the rarer of the two and the one worth calling out if you have touched it. A project or internship where you kept a parts list or document trail current is closer to this job than a design project. The page says 0 to 1 years in one place and 0 to 2 in another, so a single manufacturing internship keeps you in the running.
