Senior New Product Introduction Engineer

Job description

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 thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for an onsite Sr. NPI Engineer to join our dynamic team in Lausanne, Switzerland!

As a Senior NPI Engineer, you bridge the gap between initial design and high-volume manufacturing by translating complex requirements into scalable production realities. You lead the end-to-end transition process—developing comprehensive manufacturing plans, defining process flows, and synthesizing DFM/T feedback to ensure product manufacturability. This role acts as a central hub of cross-functional collaboration, aligning product development with production test, supply chain, material planning, and quality teams to ensure a flawless launch.

Beyond planning, you drive the execution of prototype hardware builds to meet aggressive development schedules while establishing the key performance metrics that define operational success. By preparing both the product and the organization for the rigors of the factory floor, you ensure a stable handoff to production. Your impact is sustained through rigorous lessons-learned reviews that embed continuous improvement into every future launch cycle.
