Who You’ll Work With

Arista Component Engineers work closely with Design Engineers, Supply Chain Management, and New Product Introduction Engineers to identify new components, drive an alternate sourcing strategy, and successfully launch products and sustain them in production. Component Engineers are responsible for ensuring components meet quality, reliability, and assurance of supply requirements for use in Arista products. Component Engineers report to the Component Engineering Manager.

What You’ll Do

• Provide technical and sourcing support to design engineers.  Performs component research by collaborating with designers, manufacturers, and supply chain to find components that meet performance,  pricing, availability, and volume production needs..

• Monitor, identify and resolve lifecycle issues.  Can work with manufacturers, supply chain, and design engineers to identify substitutes,  and make recommendations for NPI and Sustaining products.

• Provides Risk Ratings in Agile on Arista components based on single/multi-sourcing, lifecycle, quality issues, and component availability for volume production.

• Will be versed in reviewing and comparing component datasheets and able to work with others to find the impact of voltage and timing specifications, software differences, and compatibility to leading edge manufacturing processes.

• Has sufficient insight on international and domestic agency requirements such as RoHS, REACH, Conflict Minerals, Safety, EMI/EMC and can engage with impacted Arista groups when needed.

• Ability to administer ECO, MCO, and PCN in Agile and monitor its progress from initiation to released state.

• Collaborate periodically with our component suppliers to gain visibility into their technology roadmaps.

• Draw using Creo 3D CAD and provide all critical functional dimensions for parts to be sourceable.
