Job description

We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Mechanical Engineer to support a strategic Supplier Base Transfer Program for Electron Microscope products. This role is responsible for ensuring that the Technical Product Documentation (TPD) package is complete, accurate, and manufacturing-ready before release to new suppliers as part of supplier localization from Europe (primarily the Czech Republic and other EU suppliers) to China.

The engineer will serve as the technical interface between Design Engineering and suppliers during the RFQ and industrialization phases, ensuring suppliers have all the information required to successfully manufacture components while resolving technical queries in a timely manner.

Key Responsibilities

• Review and assess Technical Product Documentation (TPD), including engineering drawings, specifications, CAD models, BOMs, material specifications, standards, and manufacturing notes.
• Identify missing, ambiguous, or incomplete technical information that could impact supplier quotation, manufacturability, quality, or production.
• Ensure TPD packages are complete and suitable for external suppliers to manufacture parts without unnecessary assumptions or interpretation.
• Work closely with design engineering teams to close documentation gaps before supplier release.
• Act as the primary mechanical engineering contact for suppliers during the RFQ process.
• Analyze, prioritize, and respond to supplier technical questions related to drawings, tolerances, materials, surface finishes, manufacturing processes, inspection requirements, and assembly interfaces.
• Facilitate technical discussions between suppliers and global design teams to resolve engineering issues.
• Review supplier feedback and recommend design or documentation improvements to enhance manufacturability and reduce production risk.
• Support engineering change implementation and ensure documentation updates are reflected in released TPD.
• Participate in supplier technical reviews, design reviews, manufacturability assessments, and localization activities.
• Collaborate with Design, Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, and Global Procurement teams to support successful supplier onboarding and qualification.
• Drive continuous improvement in engineering documentation quality and documentation standards.
