What is New Product Introduction (NPI)?
What are some common challenges faced by professionals in New Product Introduction (NPI) roles and how can they be addressed?
What is the difference between New Product Introduction vs Product Manager?
| Aspect | New Product Introduction | Product Manager |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Focus | Launching new products into the market | Overseeing product lifecycle and strategy |
| Required Skills | Project management, cross-functional coordination, technical understanding | Market analysis, strategic planning, stakeholder communication |
| Work Environment | Product development teams, marketing, engineering | Cross-departmental collaboration, leadership roles |
| Industry Usage | Manufacturing, tech, consumer goods | Tech, retail, manufacturing |
While New Product Introduction focuses on the process of launching new products, Product Managers oversee the entire product lifecycle, including strategy, development, and market success. Both roles require collaboration across teams, but their core responsibilities differ, with NPI emphasizing execution and launch, and Product Managers focusing on long-term product success.

Job description
Transform the everyday with us!
The Siemens Energy and Automation Business Unit empowers industries, infrastructure, and buildings with a dynamic portfolio of innovative electrical components and systems, from advanced protection devices to intelligent switchgear and sophisticated control products. We are dedicated to safety, reliability, energy efficiency, and digital technologies that help future-proof operations and support sustainable performance across applications.
We are looking for a New Product Introduction Project Manager.
This position will be based permanently in Wendell NC but will require significant onsite presence in San Francisco CA for the first 12-18 months.
This role will lead complex new product introduction launches from early project planning through production ramp-up and stabilization. You will coordinate cross-functional teams, supplier partners, equipment readiness, automation integration, launch risk management, and executive reporting to deliver safe, reliable, and on-time manufacturing outcomes.
You'll make a difference by:
- Leading end-to-end New Product Introduction launch projects with ownership from product and process definition through launch, ramp-up, and stable execution.
- Building and managing integrated launch plans across R&D, product development, process engineering, equipment engineering, automation engineering, purchasing, suppliers, operations, quality, materials, EHS, facilities, HR, finance, and leadership teams.
- Driving equipment and automation readiness, including specifications, supplier selection and follow-up, acceptance testing, installation, controls integration, commissioning, validation, and issue resolution.
- Maintaining project timelines, budgets, action logs, milestone status, risk mitigation plans, launch readiness documentation, and executive-level progress reporting.
- Making risks visible early across product maturity, equipment capability, automation readiness, supplier delivery, materials availability, staffing, training, quality readiness, safety, and production ramp-up.
- Partnering with operations and materials teams to plan people ramp-up, training, standard work, shift readiness, production support, supplier coordination, inbound logistics, inventory strategy, packaging, and shortage escalation.
- Serving as the primary escalation point for high-impact, complex, or cross-functional issues while using critical thinking, communication, problem-solving, compliance, and financial controls to keep launches aligned to schedule, budget, quality, safety, and business commitments.
You'll win us over by having the following qualifications:
Basic Qualifications:
- BS/BA required; engineering, manufacturing, operations, supply chain, related STEM field, or equivalent experience preferred.
- 8+ years of experience with the following:
- Leading complex projects in manufacturing, industrial operations, product launch, automation, equipment implementation, or engineered product environments.
- Coordinating technical and operational stakeholders across product development, process development, equipment engineering, suppliers, operations, quality, materials, and launch readiness.
- Managing integrated project plans, action logs, risk registers, change management, decision logs, stakeholder reporting, and critical launch documentation.
- Applying interpersonal, negotiation, influencing, escalation management, communication, and problem-solving skills in cross-functional project environments.
- Making data-driven recommendations that balance schedule, cost, quality, risk, financial impact, and launch readiness.
- Ability to work on site in San Francisco, California during critical execution phases and travel as required.
- Legally authorized to work in the United States on a continual and permanent basis without company sponsorship.
Preferred Qualifications:
- PMP certification, equivalent practical project management experience, or willingness to obtain a PMP.
- Experience leading NPI launches, greenfield or brownfield manufacturing start-ups, production transfers, line relocations, or major equipment and automation implementations.
- Experience with engineered electrical equipment, power distribution, protection, control, critical power solutions, or related manufacturing environments.
- Experience with factory acceptance testing, site acceptance testing, commissioning, qualification, production validation, and ramp-up governance.
- Understanding of how equipment capability, automation reliability, material flow, quality controls, staffing, and training affect launch performance.
