Director of NPI & Product Engineering

About The Position

Pixellot is looking for a Director of NPI & Product Engineering to lead the transition of our multidisciplinary hardware–software products from development to production.

This role owns the end-to-end NPI and product engineering infrastructure – including product structure (product tree), PLM, configuration management, and lifecycle management – ensuring smooth handover from R&D into manufacturing and ongoing operational readiness.

This is not a software development role. The focus is on R&D-to-production handover, production readiness, industrialization, manufacturing documentation, and close day-to-day collaboration with Operations, Supply Chain, and manufacturing partners.

You will work closely with R&D, Supply Chain, Operations, and QA to ensure our products are built, tested, assembled, and maintained with strong engineering discipline, smooth NPI transitions, and scalability

As part of your role, you will:

• Own and maintain Pixellot’s product structure (product tree) for multidisciplinary hardware-software systems.
• Lead R&D-to-production handover and ensure end-to-end NPI readiness and execution.
• Define and implement production engineering processes integrated into R&D and Operations.
• Build and maintain manufacturing, assembly, and test instructions and related engineering documentation.
• Lead and own the company’s PLM environment, including configuration management, traceability, and change control (ECO/ECR).
• Manage AVL and supplier specifications together with Supply Chain and Operations.
• Define and oversee product lifecycle and end-of-life processes, including tracking upgrades and field improvements.

You should bring with you:

• 7+ years of experience in senior leadership roles in NPI and/or Manufacturing Engineering for hardware-based products.
• Demonstrated expertise in PLM environments - hands-on with leading PLM platforms.
• Hands-on experience with hardware-based products is required, with a strong focus on R&D-to-production handover, manufacturing readiness, and NPI.
• Experience with multidisciplinary products combining hardware, electronics, mechanics, and software.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, NPI practices, DFM/DFA, and engineering documentation.
• Proven track record of designing and implementing scalable engineering and NPI processes, and collaborating across multiple technical disciplines.
• Excellent communication skills in English and Hebrew.
• A structured, analytical mindset with high attention to detail and process ownership.
• Ability to lead through influence and drive cross-functional execution in a fast-paced environment.

Bonus points if you have:

• Background working with contract manufacturers and global supply chains.
• Experience with hardware reliability engineering or validation processes.

Why You'll Love Working Here:

• Shape the backbone of Pixellot’s product engineering ecosystem and influence every product we deliver.
• Work at the intersection of R&D-to-Production, Hardware, Operations, NPI, and Supply Chain.
• Own strategic processes with long-term impact on quality, scalability, and product success.
• Join a company that is transforming the way the world watches sports.
