Product Engineer - DIY and Controller

CORSAIR's Product Engineering team owns manufacturing readiness end-to-end for its hardware product lines , from NPI through mass production.

We're hiring a Product Engineer to own PC Hardware and Gaming Peripherals , technically demanding, supplier-driven product lines that need hands-on engineering depth, not just program coordination.

This is an individual contributor role. You will own the technical relationship with our R&D teams and component suppliers, drive root-cause investigations when something breaks, and be the person in the room who can read a schematic, question a DFM decision, and defend an engineering call.

You will also drive the readiness reporting and cross-functional coordination that keeps Planning, Quality, and Manufacturing aligned on where things stand.

Technical Engineering Ownership:

• Own NPI and sustaining engineering for PC Hardware and Gaming Peripherals , schematic and BOM review, DFMEA/DFM/DFA input, and hands-on issue resolution.
• Lead technical root-cause investigations on manufacturing and field issues; distinguish process-driven causes from upstream design causes and route each to the right owner.
• Review and validate PFMEA, process parameters, and test/qualification plans with suppliers; push back on weak engineering when you see it.
• Drive component and material readiness , availability, compliance, cost alignment , across CORSAIR's supplier base.

Manufacturing Readiness and Cross-Functional Ownership:

• Track and report NPI and sustaining readiness status on a regular cadence, including second-source qualification and PCN activity.
• Identify what's blocking manufacturing and drive the issue to resolution with a clear owner and timeline, rather than escalating and waiting.
• Act as the primary interface between Engineering, Planning, Procurement, Quality, and Manufacturing for PC Hardware and Gaming Peripherals, consolidating detailed inputs into clear, high-level status for leadership.
• Evaluate factory capacity, line qualification, and manufacturing process scalability with our contract manufacturing partners.
• Build and maintain direct working relationships with OEM and contract manufacturing partners , understand their real capabilities and constraints, not just what's on paper.

Collaboration:

• Partner closely with Quality on inspection criteria, audit findings, and issue closure , clear lanes, shared accountability for outcomes.
• Represent PC Hardware and Gaming Peripherals in cross-functional and executive-facing readiness reviews.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
• 5+ years in a hardware product/NPI engineering role, with direct, hands-on ownership of power electronics, PCBA, electromechanical assemblies, or similar component-level engineering.
• Demonstrated experience owning supplier relationships through EVT/DVT/PVT and mass production ramp.
• Comfortable reading schematics and BOMs, and engaging suppliers on technical trade-offs directly.
• Experience with root-cause analysis methodology (8D, 5 Whys, fishbone, or equivalent) and DOE and driving corrective actions to closure.
• Strong written and verbal communication , able to translate technical detail into clear, exec-ready status.
• Experience with gaming, consumer electronics, or power-supply hardware (including safety and efficiency certifications such as IEC 62368-1 and 80 PLUS) is a strong plus.
• Comfortable working with suppliers and manufacturing partners primarily based in Asia; some flexibility for early or late calls and periodic travel (<10%) to supplier and factory sites.

The starting base pay for this position is $140,000,$175,000 USD.
