Overview At TE, you will unleash your potential working with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to create a safer, sustainable and more connected world.
Role Description The Converged Products Reliability & Testing (R&T) Leader will lead a dedicated team of R&T engineers and will have responsibility for driving standardized Design for Reliability Engineering (DfRE) and Robustness Validation (RV) Methodologies for all High-Speed Cable Assembly Products in the DDN Portfolio. They will collaborate with customers, Product Development Engineering (PDE) teams, Manufacturing Process Development Engineering (MPDE) teams, Field Application Engineering (FAE) and Advanced Quality Engineering (AQE) to understand end application requirements and the associated mission profile. They will partner with the Global R&T COE to apply standardized methodologies and align on all Reliability Testing and Test & Validation plans for each assigned new product development program. They will identify unique product line test needs and testing requirements and work with the R&T COE to develop custom Test System & Software as required. They will co-develop Reliability Test Plans and Test & Validation Plans aligned with TE’s LeanPD stage gate approach for product development.
The R&T Leader will oversee integrating reliability considerations during technology and product evaluation, and NPI product development from receipt of Customer Spec to mass production. DfRE Experts in the Global R&T COE will help determine the appropriate test strategy using HALT/HAST techniques to evaluate product reliability. Based on data and collaboration with PDE teams, they will identify weak design/process features and work with PDE and AQE on corrective actions and improvement plans, engaging with material and component experts to evaluate improvements.
The R&T Leader will work with PDEs to produce and evaluate first samples to expedite speed to market, drive fast and iterative design improvements, drive Early Concept Testing, and collaborate with MPDE on Process Developments and Equipment Developments. They will develop comprehensive test plans to ensure capability to six sigma standards and drive Concurrent Engineering. They will support failure analysis and RCCA of line scrap and customer returns, as well as competitive benchmarking.
R&T Engineers and DfREs will leverage reliability approaches defined by Design for Six Sigma (DFSS), Toyota LPDS, and Robust Design principles, mastering reliability data sources, stress acceleration models, ALT and Test to Failure, and other reliability tools to drive data-driven decisions to ensure product reliability and robustness.
Qualifications You must have
Bachelor's/Master's in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or Mechatronics
10+ years reliability engineering experience with electronic/mechatronics products
Extensive experience with test equipment, HALT/HAST testing, and custom test systems
Global cross-functional team experience
Excellent English communication skills – written and verbal
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
Knowledge of FIT estimation, Weibull analysis, FMEDA, FTA
Reliability Engineering certification (ASQ, TUV, Reliasoft, etc.)
Preferred
DFSS Black/Green Belt certification
Standards knowledge (ISO 16750, IEC 60068, IATF 16949, etc.)
Data center and high-speed connectivity product experience
Converged Products development background
What your background should look like: Generally requires a Bachelor’s degree in an appropriate field with 12+ years of experience; or Master’s with 10+; or PhD with 6+ years; or local equivalent.
Responsibilities
Develop and implement standardized DfRE and Robustness Validation methodologies
Drive Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) culture and provide training/coaching to product teams
Lead reliability integration from customer specification through product release
Manage team performance, development, and resource allocation
Oversee reliability testing using HALT/HAST and Test-to-Failure methodologies
Partner with engineering teams for rapid prototyping and iterative design improvements
Support failure analysis and root cause corrective actions
Develop custom test equipment and specifications with Global R&T COE
Integrate reliability considerations throughout product development lifecycle
Analyze customer requirements and mission profiles for optimal validation testing
Perform FIT estimation, Weibull analysis, and reliability calculations
Lead corrective/preventive action processes
Maintain centralized reliability database and present findings to leadership
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive base salary commensurate with experience: $133,200- 199,800 (subject to change dependent on physical location)
Total Compensation = Base Salary + Incentive(s) + Benefits
Benefits include health insurance, 401(k), disability, life insurance, employee stock purchase plan, paid time off and voluntary benefits
EOE, Including Disability/Vets
