Semtech Corporation is a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors for high-end consumer, enterprise computing, communications, and industrial equipment. As our future market opportunities have increased in recent years, we have continued to invest in disruptive analog platforms and have created innovative new solutions for a wide range of leading-edge products.
Semtech's Signal Integrity Products (SIP) team is a world-class organization of innovative engineers who enable the success of our entire semiconductor portfolio through cutting-edge solutions and methodologies.
We are looking for an NPI Analyst to join the SIP Engineering team in Ottawa, Ontario.
SIP is starting to work through a substantial redesign of its New Product Introduction process (NPI) with a goal of simplifying, reducing bureaucracy and thus increasing overall compliance without sacrificing quality. This role supports that transformation and, once the redesign is defined, helps make it work in practice day to day.
You will support the implementation and maintenance of changes to the NPI process on an ongoing basis; help build and run a training framework covering NPI procedures for project leaders and core team members; support the reporting infrastructure required by management to operate the business; and help coordinate between Engineering, Marketing, Product Definition, Operations, Quality, and internal and external audit in the context of the NPI framework. You will support process-related Corrective Action Requests and help drive consistent execution across the organization.
Process maintenance support
Maintain the SIP NPI process description and its supporting procedures, forms, templates, and checklists as controlled documents, in partnership with Quality and the process owner.
Support the change-control cycle for the process itself: collect execution feedback, help prioritize and propose changes, help socialize them with affected functions before release, and help communicate them.
Help build and maintain a training framework for project leaders, functional managers, and core team members covering the gate structure, deliverables, approval routing, exception mechanisms, and the PLM toolset.
Records, document control, and audit readiness
Business intelligence and reporting
Help build and maintain reporting that lets management see program status, gate cycle time, documentation completeness, exception and waiver volume, and process health across the portfolio.
Help identify patterns from CARs, audit findings, and lessons learned, and flag them for consideration in process change proposals.
Cross-functional interface
Serve as a primary point of contact for day-to-day NPI process questions across Engineering, Marketing, Product Definition, Product and Test Engineering, Characterization, Validation, Applications, Firmware, Operations, and Quality.
Support gate owners with meeting logistics , deliverable collation, minute capture, and approval routing — without assuming ownership of the technical content, which remains with the functional owners.
