Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc.

When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other.

We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it.

Job Description

This role has been created to support continued expansion and the introduction of new technologies across Caterpillar’s electrical components portfolio, including sensors, electronic control modules (ECMs), and communication systems. As new technology initiatives accelerate, this position plays a critical role in managing both new product introductions and the ongoing performance of existing suppliers, with a strong focus on quality and capacity to meet business demand.

The role includes weekly performance reviews, ongoing supplier communication, and monthly capacity discussions.

You will be part of a highly collaborative, global team with regional representation across the U.S., India, Europe, China, and Mexico. While team members support different suppliers and regions, they work closely together to share best practices, reduce risk, and minimize travel through regional support. This role is closely aligned with the engineering product design team in Mossville, working side-by-side with engineering counterparts to support product development and deliver high-quality, cost-effective solutions leveraging our global supply base.

• A bachelor’s degree in engineering or equivalent hands-on experience in manufacturing engineering or electrical component manufacturing.

• Experience using PowerBI to analyze data, build reports, and support quality or operational decision-making.

• Working knowledge of APQP and PPAP processes, including supporting new products or component introductions through production approval.

• Experience with built-in quality (BIQ) concepts, ensuring quality is designed into processes rather than inspected at the end.
