Overview:

Global Power Components is a privately held, financially sound, growing manufacturer of UL heavy gauge steel fuel tanks, trailers, large generator enclosures, and modular metal enclosures for housing fully equipped electrical distribution and control equipment. As a result of our continuing expansion and continued organizational growth, we are looking for a motivated Product Engineer to join our team.

Internal Manufacturing Product Definition

• Own the integrity of the released product definition within PLM prior to handoff to Manufacturing Engineering.
• Ensure EBOM, CAD models, drawings, configuration rules, and revision levels are complete, consistent, and aligned before release.
• Define and maintain standard product configurations to minimize custom variation and manufacturing complexity.
• Serve as the technical authority for how the product is defined, structured, and controlled within manufacturing systems.
• Partner with Manufacturing Engineering during MBOM development to ensure intent is preserved and discrepancies are resolved.
• Drive continuous improvement of product data governance and release quality processes.

Product Definition & Configuration Management

• Own product definition beyond design intent, including configuration, assembly structure, and documentation readiness.
• Ensure product configurations align with customer requirements, commercial agreements, and internal standards.
• Maintain alignment between design documentation, product structures, and released configurations.

Engineering Change Ownership (ECR / ECN)

• Own the initiation, coordination, and execution of Engineering Change Requests (ECRs) and Engineering Change Notices (ECNs).
• Manage front-end change requests originating from Sales, PMs, Manufacturing, Quality, or site feedback.
• Coordinate cross-functional review and approval of ECRs and ECNs with Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Quality, and other stakeholders.
• Ensure approved changes are properly implemented, documented, and communicated across all affected teams.

Process Discipline & Continuous Improvement (Product Engineer–aligned)

• Enforce structured engineering release and change control processes to ensure product definition integrity prior to manufacturing handoff.
• Monitor product data quality within PLM, identifying recurring issues in revisions, configurations, effectivity, and documentation completeness.
• Identify systemic gaps in product definition workflows and drive corrective improvements to prevent downstream manufacturing disruption.
• Develop and maintain product-specific governance standards, release checklists, and validation criteria.
• Support continuous improvement of PLM–ERP integration processes to improve alignment, traceability, and change accuracy.
• Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and IT to strengthen release quality gates and reduce change-related risk.
• Support onboarding by reinforcing product data governance standards, system usage expectations, and configuration control discipline
