Stellantis is seeking a Design for Manufacturing Engineer to shape the manufacturing readiness of next-generation automotive electronics, including High Performance Computers, domain controllers, zonal controllers and electronic control units.

In this role, you will connect Product Development with manufacturing partners to make product designs manufacturable, assemblable, testable, scalable and cost-effective. You will influence electrical, PCB, mechanical, thermal, assembly and production-test decisions from early concept through launch and stable mass production.

Responsibilities:

• Lead DFM, DFA and DFT activities from architecture and concept through validation, industrialization, launch and continuous improvement.
• Conduct manufacturing-feasibility reviews of schematics, PCB technologies and layouts, component selection, thermal interfaces, enclosures, connectors, fasteners, sealing concepts and tolerance schemes.
• Define and maintain manufacturing design rules, checklists, review criteria, lessons learned and gate deliverables.
• Evaluate PCB and PCBA manufacturability, including stack-ups, HDI/microvias, panelization, fine-pitch and BGA assembly, solder-paste printing, reflow, SPI, AOI, X-ray, selective soldering, press-fit, coating and rework.
• Partner with Test Engineering to ensure access and coverage for ICT, flying probe, boundary scan/JTAG, programming/flashing, functional test and end-of-line test.
• Ensure Built-to-Print production data packages are complete, consistent and configuration-controlled.
• Assess EMS and manufacturing-partner technology, process maturity, equipment, capacity, automation, traceability, quality controls and launch readiness.
• Lead manufacturing-risk tracking and drive findings to closure with owners, due dates and objective evidence.
• Support prototype, pilot, validation, run-at-rate, safe-launch and production-ramp builds, including defect containment and root-cause resolution.
• Analyze yield, defect, cycle-time, capability, scrap, rework and test data to drive design and process improvements.
• Support APQP, PPAP, DFMEA/PFMEA, process-flow, Control Plan, MSA, SPC and change-control activities.
• Collaborate with hardware, PCB, mechanical, thermal, software, test, validation, quality, sourcing, supply chain, program teams and global manufacturing partners.
