This person owns hands-on build and validation execution at the JDM, working in close coordination with the client's HQ-based Technical Program Manager (TPM), who owns the overall program schedule and cross-functional plan. This is a hands-on, on-site role, not a remote-coordination job.\nKey Responsibilities\nNPI / Build Execution\nServe as the on-the-ground engineering owner at the JDM, present for build events (EVT/DVT/PVT/MP) and day-to-day line activity.\nDrive 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.\nOwn test and validation execution at the JDM - functional test, reliability/environmental test, safety/compliance test - ensuring test plans are followed and results are properly documented.\nTriage failures and defects in real time on the line; drive root cause analysis and corrective action with JDM engineering, escalating to HQ hardware/firmware/quality teams and the TPM as needed.\nMaintain and enforce the ECO/deviation process with the JDM - no unauthorized changes to BOM, process or test procedures.\nBe the point of accountability for whether a build is \"go\" or \"no-go\" against exit criteria agreed with the HQ team.\nProgram Support (Feeding into HQ TPM)\nExecute against the master build/validation schedule owned by the HQ TPM - flag local dependencies, delays or blockers as they arise.\nSurface schedule, quality and supply risks observedon-site promptly to the HQ TPM for the program risk register.\nCoordinate component/material readiness on-site with the JDM and local supply chain contacts, reporting line-down risk to the HQ TPM.\nParticipate in the program's status cadence (daily stand-ups during builds, weekly program reviews) with accurate, timely local data: yield, open issues, schedule variance.\nKeep the shared action-item/issue tracker current for items owned locally, anddrive them to closure with the JDM.\nProvide the HQ TPM with clear, data-backed local status updates so program-level reporting and decisions can happen at HQ.\nRequirements\nRequirements\n5-8+ years in NPI, technical program management, manufacturing engineering or test engineering for electronic hardware products (cameras, sensors, IoT devices or similar preferred).\n\nDirect experience running or supporting builds at a contract manufacturer or JDM/ODM, ideally in India or greater Asia.\n\nWorking knowledge of DFM/DFT, test fixture design/bring-up, statistical process control, and planning tools like Microsoft Project or Smartsheet.\n\nComfortable reading schematics, BOMs and mechanical drawings; able to communicate technical issues clearly across engineering, quality and ops.\n\nExperience with ECO processes, deviation/waiver trackingand formal build exit criteria.\n\nStrong bias for being physically present on the line, with the discipline to track and report status accurately to a remote program owner.\n\nAble 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.\n\nBachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent experience).\n\nLocation: Based in Gurugram (or in close proximity), India, at the JDM partner facility.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3392,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Science & Engineering","Custom Software Development"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T15:07:51Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":12,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-08T05:47:12Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/incubyte-npi-engineer-senior","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/incubyte-npi-engineer-senior.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T02:01:07Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4272,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":21123},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=21123"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fincubyte-npi-engineer-senior"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fincubyte-npi-engineer-senior"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fincubyte-npi-engineer-senior"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/incubyte-npi-engineer-senior\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fincubyte-npi-engineer-senior"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3750481}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"incubyte.co","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3750481},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people);
