About us:
Aeva’s mission is to bring the next wave of perception to a broad range of applications from automated driving to industrial robotics, consumer electronics, consumer health, security, and beyond. Aeva is transforming autonomy with its groundbreaking sensing and perception technology that integrates all key LiDAR components onto a silicon photonics chip in a compact module. Aeva 4D LiDAR sensors uniquely detect instant velocity in addition to 3D position, allowing autonomous devices like vehicles and robots to make more intelligent and safe decisions.
Role Overview:
Engineering Project Specialists play a critical role in supporting new hardware product development by creating and maintaining BOMs and managing material procurement. In this role, you will be responsible for materials readiness availability and visibility. This position will be supporting the hardware EPM group and the technical programs related to Aeva's next-generation LiDAR development.
What you'll be doing:
- Responsible for processing engineering change orders (ECOs) and related BOM management activities
- Overseeing component material availability to ensure we are clear to build (CTB) for all builds
- Leading contract manufacturing (CM) teams that drive factory data and accuracy
- Assisting in material availability status reports/communications and escalations when needed
- Creating/processing NPI related ECO's and sustaining ECO's that affect part changes throughout the lifecycle of the products
- Generating purchase requisitions, communicating with contract manufacturing finance teams, and conducting invoice review
- Supervising material logistics for new product development builds
- Working on multiple projects simultaneously
What you'll have:
- BA/BS degree and 3 years experience in Hardware Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or Operations
- Experience running, organizing, and maintaining large quantities of data
- Proficient in MS Excel and/or Mac OS Numbers Experience with PLM tools
- Able to execute multiple project timelines related to suppliers' on-time delivery performance throughout the development cycle
- Experience in new product introduction (NPI) materials planning and sustaining ECOs that affect part changes throughout the lifecycle of the products
- Understand bill of material (BOM) structure and change control concepts
- Familiarity with hardware development and manufacturing processes with contract manufacturers (CMs)
- Experience working with overseas/Asia-based suppliers
- Assisting in material availability status reports/communications and escalations when needed
- Generating purchase requisitions, communicating with contract manufacturing finance teams, and conducting invoice review
