Director / Senior Engineering Manager – PCBA, System Integration, Process & Manufacturing Engineering Job Title:
Director / Senior Engineering Manager – PCBA, System Integration, Process & Manufacturing Engineering
Department:
Manufacturing / Engineering
CATEGORY:
Exempt - Supervisory
JOB FUNCTION :
The Senior Manager for PCBA, System Integration, Process & Manufacturing Engineering is responsible for leading cross-functional engineering teams in the development, optimization, and sustainment of manufacturing processes for printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs), system-level integration, and final product assembly. This role ensures manufacturing operations deliver world-class quality, productivity, scalability, and cost competitiveness by driving process innovation, operational excellence, and successful new product introductions (NPIs).
QUALIFICATIONS:
Education:
Master’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering
Experience:
10+ years of progressive engineering experience in PCBA, system integration, and manufacturing, with at least 5 years in senior leadership role Proven track record in high-mix/high-volume production environments
Skills & Competencies:
Deep expertise in SMT, soldering processes, AOI/X-ray, ICT/FCT, and functional testing Strong knowledge of mechanical assembly, cabling, and enclosure integration Proficient in Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, PFMEA, DOE, and SPC Exceptional leadership, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills Experience with MES, ERP, and Industry 4.0 systems preferred
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Leadership & Strategic Direction
Lead, mentor, and grow high-performing engineering teams across PCBA, system integration, process, and manufacturing engineering functions Define and execute the long-term technical roadmap for manufacturing process capability, automation, and quality improvement Drive a culture of continuous improvement using Lean, Six Sigma, and Industry 4.0 principles Manage engineering budgets, capital equipment investments, and resource planning
PCBA Process Engineering
Oversee SMT, wave solder, selective solder, conformal coating, and inspection processes (AOI, X-ray, ICT/FCT) Drive DFM/DFT (Design for Manufacturability/Testability) engagement with R&D and suppliers Establish and maintain process control metrics (Cp, Cpk, FPY, OEE) Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for PCBA-related yield or quality issues
System Integration & Final Assembly
Manage engineering support for electromechanical system integration, sub-assembly builds, and final product assembly Develop assembly processes, tooling, fixtures, and test methods for system-level builds Optimize line balancing, ergonomics, and material flow to increase throughput and reduce labor content Collaborate with test engineering to integrate functional, environmental, and burn-in testing into production flow
Process & Manufacturing Engineering
Standardize manufacturing processes across production lines to ensure scalability and repeatability Implement digital manufacturing tools, MES integration, and real-time process monitoring Conduct PFMEA, DOE, SPC, and process validation to ensure robust production readiness Identify and implement cost-saving opportunities through yield improvement, scrap reduction, and automation
New Product Introduction (NPI)
Lead cross-functional readiness reviews and pilot builds for new products Develop process documentation, work instructions, and operator training programs Ensure smooth transition from engineering builds to mass production with minimal quality issues
Compliance & Standards
Ensure compliance with IPC standards (IPC-A-610, J-STD-001), ESD controls, and regulatory requirements (RoHS, REACH, ISO 9001) Maintain equipment calibration, process documentation, and operator certifications
Performance Metrics
First-pass yield (FPY) improvement and defect rate reduction On-time and successful NPI launches OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and throughput gains Manufacturing cost savings from process and design improvements
Our company is an Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE). All qualified candidates will receive consideration without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or marital status in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws.
