You will also support product testing to evaluate issues in support of obsolescence and enable test equipment functionality and plan and coordinate the execution of small projects within the group. If you were in the role today, here is what you would be working on:
- Provide engineering analysis and other related technical analysis and recommendations of component replacements.
- Provide engineering knowledge-based predictive obsolescence surveillance of electronic components.
- Interface with component manufacturers to monitor obsolescence activities and solutions.
- Evaluate and qualify alternative components to replace obsolete parts without compromising product performance or quality.
- Produce and maintain BOM’s/part lists
- Maintain detailed documentation of obsolescence management activities and decisions.
- Prepare and present reports on obsolescence risks and mitigation plans to stakeholders including external customers.
- Develop test plans and support the debugging of electrical assemblies, with a greater emphasis on how those assemblies integrate with other parts of the system.
