The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of engineering drawings, bills of material (BOMs), manufacturing processes, inventory considerations, and change-control procedures.

Key Responsibilities

• Receive, validate, prioritize, and process engineering change requests while ensuring documentation is complete and compliant with established procedures.
• Coordinate cross-functional reviews involving Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain, Procurement, Service, Suppliers, and other stakeholders.
• Evaluate the technical, quality, cost, inventory, procurement, compliance, and scheduling impacts of proposed engineering changes.
• Manage approval workflows and release activities, ensuring all required reviews and approvals are completed before changes are implemented.
• Develop and execute implementation plans addressing production timing, effectivity, inventory disposition, supplier coordination, and communication requirements.
• Support sourcing, procurement, quoting, and implementation activities for new and revised parts.
• Evaluate the impact of engineering changes on production operations, including manufacturing processes, material availability, production schedules, existing inventory, work-in-process, supplier inventory, and material obsolescence.
• Determine inventory disposition and rework requirements resulting from engineering changes and develop appropriate documentation and implementation instructions.
• Maintain product configuration accuracy by creating, updating, and controlling bills of material, drawings, material master data, work instructions, and ERP/PLM records.
• Serve as a primary resource for engineering change implementation and escalate complex or high-risk issues when necessary.
• Monitor engineering change metrics and participate in post-implementation reviews to identify issues, determine root causes, and drive corrective and continuous improvement actions.
• Develop training materials and provide training related to engineering change processes, implementation requirements, and product changes.

Qualifications & Experience

• 3–5 years of experience in engineering change management, manufacturing, industrial engineering, supply chain, or a related technical field preferred.
• Strong knowledge of engineering drawings, bills of material (BOMs), manufacturing processes, and engineering change control procedures.
• Strong mechanical aptitude and working knowledge of the metric system required.
• Experience working with ERP/MRP and PLM systems required.
• SAP and SmartSheet experience preferred.
• Associate's or bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical discipline preferred.
