Meet the Team:
As an Interconnect Component Engineer in Cisco's Supply Chain organization, you will join the CQT (Component Quality & Technology) team within the Global Supplier Management (GSM) organization. We are technology, engineering, and business experts who believe innovation can solve any business challenge. Our mission is to anticipate and develop technology innovations that deliver quality customer experiences.
In this role, you will build a strong understanding of the tools, processes, and techniques used to design, manufacture, and qualify interconnect and connector components for Cisco products. You will collaborate with our interconnect and connector suppliers and partner with Global Supply Management, Manufacturing Operations, Product Operations, and Supply Operations — applying your growing technical expertise to qualify and develop component supplier capability and drive excellent quality across the region.
Responsibilities and tasks include:
Support qualification of connector and interconnect component site capabilities and product readiness.
Serve as a technical contributor in commodity teams; evaluate quality and reliability performance data and provide inputs for sourcing strategy.
Contribute to defect reduction and process re-engineering efforts related to interconnect components.
Identify, initiate, and help drive process improvements that reduce cycle time and cost while maintaining exceptional quality.
Support product transfer and change programs to sustain affected products and supplier sites.
Engage early in NPI and provide inputs for concurrent engineering efforts (DFM, FMEA, tooling design, plating, validation testing, etc.).
Provide technical support to the supply chain and engineering community, building toward subject-matter expertise in interconnect technologies.
Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or an equivalent field, with 5-7+ years of relevant industry experience.
Foundational hands-on exposure to interconnect and connector technologies at the application and component level, including the fundamentals of associated PCB attach technologies.
Familiarity with mechanical and electrical design principles — tolerance analysis, fabrication methods, materials selection, plating, and validation testing. Awareness of Signal Integrity (SI) fundamentals is a plus.
Experience with problem-solving and process improvement methodologies (8D, Lean Six Sigma) and FMEA facilitation techniques.
Experience managing multiple projects using established project management skills and tools.
Domain exposure to connector or interconnect component manufacturing processes preferred.
Requires on-site support at manufacturing facilities.
Strategically focused, impact-oriented, highly organized, and adaptable.
Fluent English and Chinese speaking and writing. Vietnamese speaking and writing is a plus.
Familiarity with high-speed cable assemblies and their applications.
Experience with line set-up and line qualification.
Exposure to SPC, Cause-and-Effect Analysis, Design of Experiments (DOE), and risk assessment for high-volume programs.
