We are seeking a high-drive, proactive Configuration Control, PDM Specialist to lead and scale our product data architecture, engineering change processes, and BOM integrity across all lifecycle phases.
In this role, you will take full ownership of multi-level hardware BOMs, Engineering Change Orders (ECO/ECR/MCO/DCO/DEV), and variant configurations from early NPI through mass production. We are looking for an innovative professional who leverages modern AI tools and automation scripting to eliminate manual overhead, build resilient data pipelines, and maintain 100% data integrity. You will operate in a dynamic, high-intensity environment, handling complex configuration scenarios across global Contract Manufacturers (EMS/ODM).
עיקרי התפקיד
BOM & Configuration Architecture:
Structure, build, and maintain complex, multi-level product configurations, system assemblies, and hardware/firmware revision matrices across development and production lifecycles.
Lead the end-to-end Change Control Board (CCB) process; review, validate, approve, and execute Engineering Change Orders (ECO), Manufacturer Change Orders (MCO), Deviations, and Stop-Ship directives.
Process Automation & AI Adoption:
Actively identify repetitive CM/PDM bottlenecks and implement intelligent automations (via Generative AI tools) to automate main workflows.
Cross-Functional Execution:
Collaborate closely with Hardware R&D, Product managers, Quality, Supply chain, and Manufacturing teams to enforce strict part taxonomy, lifecycle states, and smooth execution.
EMS / CM Data Synchronization:
Ensure flawless transfer and alignment of approved engineering data packages (BOMs, schematics, fabrication drawings, test specifications) to overseas manufacturing partners.
Data Governance & Continuous Improvement:
Audit and maintain the single-source-of-truth database, resolve configuration discrepancies.
דרישות
PDM Mastery (Mandatory): 4+ years of hands-on, expert-level experience administering and operating Tier-1 PLM systems—specifically Arena PLM and Oracle Agile PLM.
AI & Automation Mindset: Practical experience utilizing modern AI tools (LLM-based productivity agents, automated data-extraction tools) to develop workflow automations and accelerate data turnaround times.
Complex Change Control Expertise: Deep expertise in product lifecycle states, multi-level BOM structuring, alternate/second-source components, effectivity dating, and disposition strategies (Scrap, Rework, Use-As-Is).
High-Paced Resilience & Drive: Proven ability to thrive in a demanding, fast-paced hardware environment, successfully managing tight deadlines, multi-project context switching, and high-complexity challenges with minimal supervision.
Accuracy & Attention to Detail: Exceptional analytical skills with an uncompromising commitment to data accuracy and configuration integrity.
Communication: Excellent professional communication skills in English (verbal and written) for leading cross-departmental reviews and driving execution with international EMS partners.
