Job description

As an Hardware Development Engineer, you will play a crucial role in our NI ON department. Your primary focus will be on optical pluggable products, from concept to manufacturing, with a strong emphasis on manufacturability, efficiency, and quality. You will act as a key interface between various teams, ensuring a seamless product development journey.

NILightpath

Own the product transition process from concept to high-volume manufacturing for optical pluggable modules.
Drive product design decisions, considering manufacturability, cost, quality, and automation aspects.
Act as the engineering liaison between Product Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and other relevant teams.
Lead DFM, DFA, PFMEA activities, process qualification, and production ramp-up initiatives.
Support various optical transceiver platforms, including OSFP, OSFP-XD, QSFP-DD etc.
Review GD&T, module housings, thermal lids, heat spreaders, and other critical components from assembly and cost effectiveness perspective
Create process flows, work instructions, and assembly procedures for efficient manufacturing.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Mechatronics, or Production Engineering.
3+ years of engineering experience, with a strong background in mechanical product design.
Proficiency in Creo Parametric, GD&T (ASME Y14.5)
Experience in NPI and production readiness, supporting EVT, DVT, PVT, and production ramp-up.
Strong DFM expertise for optical modules, precision mechanical assemblies, and high-density electronic products.
Ability to develop manufacturing tooling and fixtures, with knowledge of automated screw driving and machine vision systems.
Experience with PFMEA, DFMEA, and process improvement methodologies like 8D, DMAIC, and 5 Why.
Familiarity with optical module domain knowledge, including OSFP MSA, QSFP-DD MSA, and coherent optics.
Understanding of thermal engineering principles and experience with FloTHERM or similar thermal analysis tools.
