【美商連接器大廠🔌】Principal Engineer, Product Design Engineering - RH

📋 Job Responsibilities

• Review and approve major product design releases, ensuring alignment with customer requirements, engineering standards, manufacturability, and reliability expectations.
• Serve as the organization's technical authority on connector and cable assembly design, coaching engineers on GD&T, tolerance analysis, FMEA, DOE, and FEA/SI simulation methodologies.
• Lead critical failure investigations and root cause analyses, driving effective containment, corrective, and long-term preventive actions.
• Act as the engineering focal point for strategic customers — including the four major CSPs — addressing complex technical challenges and design escalations directly.
• Drive next-generation product development by evaluating emerging technologies and delivering technical recommendations that strengthen product competitiveness.
• Contribute to innovation through patents, invention disclosures, and technology roadmap development, while advising management on key technical and business decisions.

🛠 Technologies & Core Concepts Used

• Design & Analysis Methods: GD&T, tolerance analysis, FMEA, DOE, NUDD, FEA/SI simulation
• Interconnect Expertise: High-speed connector and cable assembly design, materials, DFM
• Reliability & Quality: Qualification testing, failure analysis, root cause investigation, corrective/preventive actions
• Domain Focus: Server, storage, AI, and HPC system architectures and interconnect applications

Requirements

🎯 Requirements & Skills

• Bachelor's degree or above in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline; 10+ years of product design experience in connectors, cable assemblies, or interconnect products.
• Candidates with combined Cable and Connector design background strongly preferred; candidates with ODM system-level experience and deep Cable/Connector familiarity will also be considered, provided they bring exceptionally strong mechanical fundamentals (tolerance analysis, plastic components, materials impact).
• Proven expertise in failure analysis, root cause investigation, and design-for-manufacturability across the full product lifecycle from concept to production release.
• English does not need to be fully fluent, but must be strong enough to independently present to overseas clients — including the four major CSPs — and provide front-line technical responses.
• Experience working directly with hyperscale data center customers or server platform providers, and knowledge of server/storage/AI/HPC interconnect applications, strongly preferred.
