Job description

The group you’ll be a part of

You will be a key contributor to the Electrofill Product Group, within the Engineering Operations Team, supporting Sabre 3D and Sabre products. The Engineering Operations Team reports within the WETS PG Engineering Department, so we are closely aligned with PG Engineering goals and objectives. We also work hand in hand with Electrofill Product Management Team. Engineering Operations operates in a very dynamic environment and is deeply engaged in numerous PG deliverables, and central to the PG’s success. You’ll be part of a very interactive team that offers independent areas of ownership while working within a tightly collaborative small team environment. The team highly values and encourages creative thinking, flexibility and continual improvement.

The impact you’ll make

In this role, you will directly contribute to highly impactful PG programs and projects. You will solve real world problems, in a fast paced environment and provide solutions to internal and external groups. The work that you do will have immediate and rewarding results.

What you’ll do

You'll be focused on executing and managing engineering programs and projects within the Electrofill Engineering Operations team. The position will cover a large and diverse area of ownership: release and rollout of new products, engagement and influence on product architecture development, BOM management, manufacturing and supplier issues, and other key roles in Change Management. There will be future growth opportunities in developing product knowledge, as well as opportunities for owning key Program Management areas. Over time there will be several opportunities for growth in areas that match your skills and interest, all having vital impact to the PG’s success. You'll work and collaborate with several internal and external groups: Product Management, PG Engineering Management, PG Engineers, LIGHT, KATs and Customer Teams, Operations, Supply Chain, and Configuration Engineering. The position will have extensive interaction with onshore and offshore PG Engineers. This is not a design intensive position, but there will be opportunities for some level of design work, and a high level of investigative work involving viewing and evaluating drawings and models.

Who we’re looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field with 2+ years of experience; or an advanced degree without previous professional experience; or equivalent experience.
  • Excellent communication, both written and verbal, and technical presentation skills.
  • Highly desired: Familiarity and experience with the Sabre 3D and Sabre products and POA, and understanding of tool configurations and options, and their interdependencies.
  • Creative thinking skills are very important.
  • Familiarity with SAP, TC-PLM, and CQ.
  • Attention to detail and a drive for accuracy is a must.
  • Ability to multitask across multiple, competing priorities in a dynamic environment.

Preferred qualifications

  • Flexibility to operate in several different areas of ownership, and being a self-driver, are a big plus.
  • Knowledge of the Product history, or being able to determine it accurately, will be vital, as well as configuration dependencies.
  • Knowledge of Change Management methodologies is a strong plus.
  • Knowledge of Program Management methods and experience in Product Development & Release (PDR) procedures.
  • Familiarity with engineering modelling software such as Creo or NX is a plus.
  • This is not a design intensive position but technical acumen is important.

How Openbound evaluates sponsorship

Visa history uses official U.S. Department of Labor H-1B LCA disclosure data and USCIS H-1B petition history. Green card history uses DOL PERM disclosure data. Each is read for the employer as a whole, for roles like this one, and for this location, weighted toward the most recent fiscal years.

An employer is matched to its filing entities by verified legal name and reviewed aliases; a match is never made on a name resemblance alone. Where no verified entity can be matched, the page says so and draws no conclusion from the absence. 136 filing titles were examined for this employer.

What this posting states outranks history in both directions, and an employer's published policy outranks past filings. Filing history reflects past behavior; it is not a promise of sponsorship for this opening, and none of this is legal advice.
