Product Engineer

DESCRIPTION

Key Responsibilities

• Investigate and resolve product-related issues using tools such as 7-step problem solving, iDFMEA, and FIRG.
• Apply engineering standard work and processes in Product Preceding Technology (PPT), Value Package Introduction (VPI), and Current Product Support (CPS).
• Lead and manage small to medium range VPC, Wave, or cost-reduction projects independently.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams, including design, manufacturing, and supplier partners to ensure quality product decisions.
• Own and execute moderately complex component, system, or product technical tasks with growing levels of independence.
• Create and manage complete design specifications, including 3D models and engineering BOMs, adhering to international and Cummins standards.
• Contribute to product verification and validation plans to support design intent and reliability targets.
• Drive systemic problem-solving and continuous improvement efforts within the engineering process.
• Document technical decisions, processes, and problem resolution to support knowledge transfer and future projects.

• Diploma or Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering.
• Must have experience working with electrical rotating machines.
• Knowledge of IEC/IS standards is essential.
• Preferred: Familiarity with high-voltage electrical products.
• Experience working with cross-functional teams is required.

• Product Development & Validation - Executes full development cycle, from concept to validation, aligned to system requirements.
• Product Failure Mode Avoidance - Identifies and mitigates failure modes using robust engineering principles.
• Cross-Functional Integration - Drives design reviews and aligns multiple stakeholder inputs into unified solutions.
• System Requirements Engineering - Translates stakeholder needs into actionable design requirements.
• Communication - Effectively communicates with diverse audiences, from technicians to senior management.
• Collaboration - Demonstrates strong teamwork and influence across functions.
• Analytical Thinking - Applies statistical methods and root cause analysis to engineering challenges.
• Decision Making - Makes timely, data-driven decisions that drive project progress.
• Self-Development & Inclusion - Seeks growth opportunities and values diverse perspectives.

• 1-3 years of relevant experience in product engineering, preferably within the automotive, electrical machinery, or industrial equipment sectors.
• Demonstrated experience handling small to medium VPC, Wave, or cost-reduction projects.
• Hands-on exposure to design tools, problem-solving frameworks, and manufacturing processes is a plus.

• Engineering Tools & Processes: 7-step problem solving, iDFMEA, FIRG, Engineering Standard Work.
• Design & Simulation: Mechanical and electrical system design, modeling, and simulation using industry-standard software.
• Product Lifecycle: Experience across PPT, VPI, CPS processes.
• Standards & Compliance: Knowledge and application of IEC/IS standards.
• Controls Integration: Basic understanding of open/closed loop controls and their application in electromechanical systems.
