Project Manager specialized in industrial technology transfer

Job Summary

As part of the launch of a new industrial unit dedicated to the production and testing of electronic and telecom products (PCBs, RF modules, embedded equipment, or communication systems), we are seeking a Project Manager specialized in industrial technology transfer.

You will lead the full transfer of electronic assembly, integration, testing, and validation processes from a reference site to an international site. You will ensure industrial continuity, technical compliance, quality performance, and timely delivery in a high-tech environment.

Key Responsibilities

Industrial Transfer Management

• Structure and manage the overall transfer schedule (processes, equipment, validation).
• Define project governance and coordinate technical teams (industrialization, quality, methods, supply chain).
• Identify technical risks related to electronic and telecom process transfers.
• Report progress to clients and industrial management.

Electronic Assembly Process Transfer

• Analyze existing lines: SMT, THT, mechanical integration, and cabling.
• Define the target industrial workflow (SKD/CKD if applicable).
• Transfer industrial documentation: process sheets, bills of materials, manufacturing files, machine programs.
• Ensure performance reproducibility (throughput, yield, quality).

Test & Validation Bench Transfer

• Identify and transfer functional, ICT, FCT, RF, and burn-in test benches.
• Revalidate test sequences and associated software.
• Supervise FAT/SAT of production and test equipment.
• Ensure compliance with client requirements and industry standards.

Industrial Validation & Qualification

• Manage pilot series and process qualification.
• Conduct First Article Inspections (FAI).
• Monitor performance indicators (FPY, yield, MTBF, defect rates).
• Implement corrective actions for any quality or process deviations.

Laboratory Cloning & Test Environment

• Define technical specifications for the lab (ESD, RF, climatic conditions, automated test benches).
• Coordinate installation of measurement equipment (spectrum analyzers, RF generators, microwave benches, etc.).
• Ensure compliance with ATEX requirements if applicable.

Training & Skills Transfer

• Train local teams on electronic processes and test protocols.
• Ensure knowledge transfer for electronic industrialization.
• Validate operational autonomy of the target site.

Candidate Profile

• Engineering degree in electronics, telecommunications, embedded systems, or industrial engineering.
• Significant experience in industrialization or project management in PCB production, telecom equipment, or critical systems.
• Strong knowledge of SMT environments, automated test benches, and product validation.
• Familiarity with industrial quality standards (IPC, ISO, electronic traceability).
• Experience in international coordination is a plus.
• Fluent English required.
• Strong technical analysis skills and cross-functional leadership.
