Electronics Project Manager

Reporting to the Engineering Manager, the Electronics Project Manager is responsible for leading and coordinating key electronics development projects, including the redesign of existing circuit boards for manufacturability, cost optimization, and serviceability, as well as managing redesigns to address component obsolescence. The Project Manager ensures projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.

Responsibilities:

The Electronics Project Manager is responsible for:

• Planning, organizing, and managing electronics board redesign projects from initiation to completion
• Driving design-for-manufacturability, design-for-cost, and design-for-service initiatives in collaboration with engineering and production teams
• Leading efforts to redesign boards to overcome component obsolescence, including risk identification and mitigation
• Supervising qualification and validation tests for redesigned boards
• Coordinating with cross-functional teams (engineering, production, supply chain, quality, service) to ensure project objectives are met
• Managing project risks (technical, logistical, scheduling) and define mitigation strategies
• Ensuring adherence to deadlines, budgets, and quality standards
• Participating in technical design reviews to improve manufacturability and maintainability
• Identifying and implementing cost optimization levers (standardization, design-to-cost, process simplification)
• Driving corrective action plans for non-conformities and quality issues
• Promoting continuous improvement and Lean Manufacturing principles (5S, VSM, Kaizen)
• Preparing and maintaining project documentation, including control plans, SOPs, and support materials
• Providing regular reports to management on project progress, risks, and decisions needed
• Facilitating effective communication among project stakeholders

Requirements:

• Education & experience:
  • Bachelor s degree (B.E./B.Tech) in Electronics/Electrical Engineering, Project Management, or related field; PMP or similar certification preferred
  • Minimum 5 years of experience managing technical projects in electronics or manufacturing environments
  • Proven track record in leading board redesign projects and managing component obsolescence
  • Experience with design-for-manufacturability, cost optimization, and serviceability
  • Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing and continuous improvement methodologies
• Professionnal knowledge & abilities:
  • Fluent in English
  • Strong project management and organizational skills
  • Technical understanding of electronics design and manufacturing processes
  • Analytical and problem-solving abilities
  • Effective communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Ability to work in multidisciplinary and multicultural teams
  • Proactive, rigorous, autonomous, and dynamic
  • Project Focus: Board redesign, manufacturability, cost, service, and obsolescence management
