The Senior Process Engineer position is the connective tissue between product development and manufacturing execution-responsible for enabling a consistent"design anywhere, build anywhere"philosophy across OmniOn Power's manufacturing sites. The role drives a common global manufacturing approach through standardized equipment, aligned processes, and cross-site collaboration, supporting products across the full lifecycle from New Technology Introduction (NTI) and New Product Introduction (NPI) through production, decline, and end-of-manufacturing stages.

This is primarily an oversight, and strategic enablementrole. While the engineer provides expert guidance and approval authority across key process domains, day-to-day execution ownership resides with Factory NPI Leaders and site-based teams. The ideal candidate is someone who can set direction, elevate others, and lead through influence and accountability rather than direct control. This position reports to Director of Manufacturing Excellence and will be based in Plano, TX.

Global Manufacturing Strategy & Standardization

• Build and develop plant manufacturing teams in support of the Director of Manufacturing Excellence, fostering a culture of engineering excellence and cross-site knowledge sharing.
• Standardize the global manufacturing equipment supply base and document shared equipment capabilities across all manufacturing sites.
• Develop and maintain a long-term automation roadmap that aligns with business growth targets, R&D product development priorities, and the evolving needs of AI and data center customers.
• Establish design-for-automation (DFA) manufacturing requirements and implement a structured review process covering all R&D development stages, including NTI, NPI, and full product lifecycle transitions.

NPI & Product Lifecycle Support

• Support and align Factory NPI Leaders and PCB DFM owners across manufacturing sites.
• Review and approve manufacturing process checklists at NPI gate reviews; Factory NPI Leaders own day-to-day checklist management and execution.
• Partner with R&D and Principal Engineering to embed manufacturability and automation readiness into product designs from the earliest development stages.
• Provide DFM oversight at a global level while PCBA DFM execution is performed by the plant NPI Leader at the site where the PCBA will be built.

As part of the global operations team, ability to work flexible hours is necessary, including with countries in different time zones.

Performing any other reasonable duties as directed by management

• Proven experience supporting or leading NPI programs, including DFM/DFA reviews and gate processes across product lifecycle stages.
• Experience with CAPEX planning, automation justification, and manufacturing roadmap development.
• Ability to analyze process cycle times, labor content, and throughput data to drive balanced automation and resource decisions.
• Strong cross-functional communication skills with the ability to influence without direct authority across global, matrixed organizations.
• Experience developing and reviewing manufacturing KPIs related to quality, throughput, and productivity.
• Experience in power conversion, telecommunications, or data center electronics manufacturing environments.
• SMTA Certification (Certified SMT Process Engineer) or active pursuit of certification.
• IPC Certification (CIS, CIT, or equivalent) through IPC/Global Electronics Association.
• Experience managing or aligning global, multi-site manufacturing operations.
• Lean Six Sigma certification (Green Belt or higher).
• Familiarity with AI-driven manufacturing analytics, automation platforms, or smart factory technologies relevant to PCB assembly.
• Bilingual English/Spanish preferred for Matamoros plant site engagement.
