Technical Manager

Design and develop new products or modify existing ones to meet customer requirements, project scope, market demands, and regulatory standards, along with all supporting documentation.  Partner with customers and internal stakeholders to gather requirements, define project scope, establish timelines, outline deliverables, and assess resource needs.  Apply core engineering principles heat transfer, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, mechanics, and materials science to evaluate and design electromechanical products.  Awareness of industry standards for ensuring compliance in system design, performance, safety, and certification requirements.  Collaborate cross-functionally with simulation teams to guide design decisions and predict product performance under various operating conditions.  Incorporate DFX principles Design for Manufacturability, Assembly, Reliability, Cost, and Serviceability to optimize product performance, reduce lifecycle costs, and enhance production efficiency.  Conduct Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) to identify potential risks and implement mitigation strategies.  Design sheet metal components to meet structural and functional requirements.  Work closely with simulation engineers to develop robust technical solutions.  Choose materials and components that balance cost, performance, and reliability.  Prepare product verification and validation plans; coordinate with labs and agencies for testing.  Use CAD tools (e.g., Creo) to create detailed 3D models and engineering drawings.  Review and finalize approval and manufacturing drawing packages.  Provide technical support for customer applications and field usage.  Coordinate with cross-functional efforts across design, simulation, documentation, and quality teams to ensure timely and integrated delivery  Monitor project milestones using project management tools (e.g., Gantt charts, MS Project, Jira) and key performance indicators (KPIs), generate status reports, and proactively implement risk mitigation strategies.  Facilitate regular customer engagements including status reviews, technical discussions to maintain alignment and satisfaction discussions, and escalation handling.  Manage change requests and mitigate scope creep by aligning evolving requirements with business objectives and customer expectations.  Lead transformation initiatives (e.g., automation, process re-engineering) to improve delivery effectiveness. PLM automation – Drive Works / Enovia/ Windchill configurator  Build and maintain strong CXO-level relationships with global clients to ensure satisfaction and retention.  Own delivery KPIs including utilization, margin, quality, on-time delivery, and customer satisfaction (CSAT).  Foster a high-performance culture driven by accountability, collaboration, and learning.

Minimum of 10-25 years of experience in product development, product line from mechanical engineering systems, components & design principles with delivery leadership roles  Exposure to global delivery models, onsite-offshore coordination, and multi-geography project delivery.  Proficiency in 3D CAD modelling (Creo, SolidWorks) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software platforms (Enovia, Windchill)  Independently contributed to PLM Automation / Configuration Management Projects in parametric modelling using either a. SolidWorks and Enovia or b. Creo and Windchill  Worked in PLM Automation projects with DriveWorks to reduce engineering effort and enhance PLM workflows through automated product configuration  Familiarity with product testing, validation, and regulatory compliance processes.  Proficient in delivery tools: Jira, MS Project, PLM systems, QMS tools.  Proficiency in managing team members through a solid line reporting structure, including performance accountability, career development, and day to day management
