Packaging Engineer designing and validating packaging solutions for next-generation networking systems at Nexthop Systems. Focused on innovative problem-solving and industry standards compliance.
Responsibilities
Develop, implement and oversee the cost-effective package solutions that ensure data center networking product protection and marketability as per client requirements, and industry standards
Partner with packaging vendors, suppliers, and external labs to have packaging solutions in timely manner
Qualification plans to characterize and validate packaging solutions for product and it’s FRU (Field replaceable unit), subassemblies or components as per industry or internal specifications by working closely with HW design (mechanical, thermal, electrical etc)
Come out with innovative ideas for cost optimization, durability during shipping, environmental impact, and compliance with safety regulations
Adjust or customize packaging in real time to adopt product design changes
Analyse different materials to assess the cost per unit, considering aspects such as durability, weight, sustainability and fragility of the product
Validate the durability of packaging materials by subjecting them to simulated shipping conditions, ensuring they can withstand rough handling and environmental factors such as temperature changes, ultimately preventing product damage during transit
Understand manufacturing plan & process, machinery, and assembly lines to ensure that the packaging design aligns seamlessly with the production capabilities, helping streamline the manufacturing process to improve operational efficiency
Work closely with the cross-functional teams to coordinate cost, schedule and address cross-functional dependencies e.g. HW allocation, SW readiness, shipment etc
Analyze test results, find product and package design issues, log bugs using tracking software, recommend corrective action, drive resolution and verify fixes
Review, edit, and release package design, parts, and documentation
Evaluate technical readiness prior to release to manufacturing
Learn and improve test cost, consistency, and efficiency proactively
Requirements
Bachelor’s or higher degree in Packaging or Mechanical Engineering
2-5 years of experience in protective Packaging for telecom or data center product packaging development
Solid understanding of structural dynamic (shock, vibration, drop,etc) and environmental (temperature, humidity, altitude, acoustic) testing for networking
Strong knowledge of industry standards e.g. ISTA, FedEX, IEC, ASTM, ISO etc
Able to configure various packaging from FRU, single, multipack, pallets and crates for air, sea, rail, and road transportation
Ability to perform fragility analysis with boundary scan testing
Experience with mechanical and environmental test equipment e.g. shock & vibration table, acoustic, HALT and other environmental test chambers, etc
Familiarity with MDVT, HALT, & NEBS testing is a plus
CAD tools such as Fusion or SW to design and reviews with vendors or Mechanical design engineers
BOM management tools such as Arena or Agile to maintain and release part numbers with adequate details
Strong collaboration and communication skills to work effectively across cross-functional teams in a fast-paced environment
A problem-solving mindset with a focus on delivering results while managing technical risks and tradeoffs
Ability to adapt and thrive in a dynamic and innovative environment.
