Role Summary
Accenture Semiconductor Practice is looking for a New Product Introduction (NPI) & Product Engineering Consultant to help semiconductor clients transform their product development and commercialisation processes. You will work across fabless, IDM, and OSAT environments to bring structure, speed, and strategic alignment across the product lifecycle — from early-stage engineering builds through mass production ramp-up.
Key Responsibilities
New Product Introduction (NPI)
Lead and support NPI strategy building and optimization, including engineering builds, pilot runs, and process readiness assessments
Drive phase gate reviews, product qualification, and ramp readiness activities
Collaborate with client engineering and program teams to accelerate time-to-market and reduce late-stage rework
Analyse and improve volume offloading strategies, including site transfers between Fab, OSAT, and test partners
Drive insights on product maturity metrics such as yield stability, test coverage, and cost performance
Product Engineering & Lifecycle Management
Map and align engineering (eBOM), manufacturing (mBOM), and repair (rBOM) structures to ensure data continuity and operational integration
Work with cross-functional teams (design, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain) to manage engineering change notices (ECN) and product configurations
Support the implementation or optimization of PLM systems, including workflows for part creation, release management, and change control
Ensure product data integrity and traceability across the product lifecycle
Stakeholder & Programme Management
Work with cross-functional teams and client stakeholders across design, manufacturing, and supply chain domains
Support programme governance, status reporting, and issue resolution across NPI workstreams
Contribute to knowledge-building and upskilling initiatives within the practice
Skills & Competencies
Technical
Strong understanding of semiconductor NPI and lifecycle processes, including phase gate reviews, qualification, and ramp readiness
Familiarity with PLM tools and BOM management (e.g. Agile, Windchill, Teamcenter)
Knowledge of engineering change processes and product configuration management
Ability to work cross-functionally across product engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain
Professional
Strong project management and structured problem-solving skills
Excellent communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills with an aptitude for compelling storytelling
Consulting mindset with comfort in ambiguous, fast-paced environments
Ability to effectively team with others in a large, global organisation
Cross-cultural competence with the ability to thrive in dynamic environments
Experience & Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Automation, or related field
Minimum 2 years of experience in product engineering, NPI, or related roles within semiconductor, OSAT, or electronics manufacturing
Exposure to product or programme engineering, NPI support, or process documentation
Familiarity with any PLM platform (Agile, Teamcenter, Windchill, etc.) is a plus
Experience working with or implementing PLM systems and managing engineering change processes is highly desirable
Prior consulting exposure or transformation project participation is an advantage
Ability to work cross-functionally and engage with client stakeholders across design, manufacturing, and supply chain
