NPI Engineer - Staff

Company : Incubyte Gmbh

Job Description - NPI Engineer - Staff

Role Summary
Incubyte is hiring a Staff NPI Engineer to be on-site at a client's JDM partner facility in Gurugram. This person leads build and validation execution at the JDM, works in close coordination with the client's HQ-based Technical Program Manager (TPM), and guides the on-site NPI engineers. This is a hands-on, on-site role.

Key Responsibilities
NPI / Build Execution
Serve as the senior on-the-ground engineering owner at the JDM, present for build events (EVT/DVT/PVT/MP) and day-to-day line activity.
Lead build planning with the JDM: line setup, work instructions, fixture/tooling readiness and build schedules, in line with the program plan set by HQ Engineering.
Own test and validation execution at the JDM — functional, reliability/environmental, safety/compliance — ensuring test plans are followed and results are properly documented.
Lead root cause analysis and corrective action on complex failures with JDM engineering, escalating to HQ hardware/firmware/quality teams and the TPM as needed.
Own the ECO/deviation process with the JDM — no unauthorized changes to BOM, process or test procedures.

Be the final point of accountability for whether a build is "go" or "no-go" against exit criteria agreed with the HQ team.
Guide the on-site NPI engineers in build execution and status reporting.

Program Support (Feeding into HQ TPM)
Work with the HQ TPM on the master build/validation schedule — flag local dependencies, delays or blockers as they arise.
Surface schedule, quality and supply risks observed on-site promptly to the HQ TPM for the program risk register.
Coordinate component/material readiness on-site with the JDM and local supply chain contacts, reporting line-down risk to the HQ TPM.
Lead the site's input to the program's status cadence (daily stand-ups during builds, weekly program reviews) with accurate local data: yield, open issues, schedule variance.
Make sure the shared action-item/issue tracker stays current for all site items and that they are driven to closure with the JDM.
Provide the HQ TPM with clear, data-backed local status updates so program-level reporting and decisions can happen at HQ.

Requirements

Requirements

8+ years in NPI, technical program management, manufacturing engineering or test engineering for electronic hardware products (cameras, sensors, IoT devices or similar preferred).

Direct experience running builds at a contract manufacturer or JDM/ODM, ideally in India or greater Asia.

Strong knowledge of DFM/DFT, test fixture design/bring-up, statistical process control, and planning tools like Microsoft Project or Smartsheet.

Comfortable reading schematics, BOMs and mechanical drawings; able to communicate technical issues clearly across engineering, quality and ops.

Experience with ECO processes, deviation/waiver tracking and formal build exit criteria.

Strong bias for being physically present on the line, with the discipline to track and report status accurately to a remote program owner.

Able to work Gurugram-based hours with overlap into US working hours for HQ TPM syncs and escalations, including calls with the US team until 10–11 PM IST.

Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent experience).
​

Location: Based in Gurugram (or in close proximity), India, at the JDM partner facility.
