One team. Global challenges. Infinite opportunities. At Viasat, we’re on a mission to deliver connections with the capacity to change the world. For more than 35 years, Viasat has helped shape how consumers, businesses, governments and militaries around the globe communicate. We’re looking for people who think big, act fearlessly, and create an inclusive environment that drives positive impact to join our team.

We are seeking the ideal candidate to join our New Product Introduction team in Tempe, AZ!  As a Senior NPI Engineer, you bridge the gap between initial design and high-volume manufacturing by translating complex requirements into scalable production realities.

They prepare both the product and the organization for manufacturing, establish key performance metrics to measure operational success, and conduct lessons-learned reviews to drive continuous improvement by:

• Providing expert guidance and implement industry best practices in manufacturing and testing methodologies to ensure high-quality production standards
• Collaborating with Business Area leadership and engineering teams to support new product development, ensuring alignment within cost and schedule targets
