Summary of Job:
The Engineer 3 role is a senior-level individual contributor within the Global Engineering organization. This position is responsible for designing, optimizing, and influencing system-level engineering solutions that support product development, testing platforms, process innovation, and R&D initiatives across Asurion’s operations.
Reporting to an Engineering Manager or Senior Manager, the Engineer 3 operates with strong technical autonomy and broad organizational influence. This role moves beyond feature ownership to system contribution—anticipating cross-functional impacts, improving engineering standards, and ensuring scalable, high-performing solutions across teams and sites.
Engineer 3 serves as a trusted technical authority within their domain, guiding solution architecture, improving engineering practices, and mentoring junior engineers.
This is a full-time, on-site, exempt position.
Duties & Responsibilities:
Design and optimize system-level engineering solutions that integrate processes, tools, data, and workflows across functions.
Lead complex cross-functional initiatives that impact quality, performance, cost, scalability, or lifecycle outcomes.
Establish and refine engineering standards, validation methods, documentation practices, and process controls.
Own key system KPIs and proactively drive improvements through structured analysis and sustainable countermeasures.
Serve as a subject matter expert in core technical domains, advising leadership and stakeholders on risk, feasibility, and long-term impact.
Lead advanced root cause analysis and corrective action strategies across multi-functional systems.
Support new product introductions, technology deployments, and process transformations with system-level readiness and validation oversight.
Mentor Engineer 1 and Engineer 2 team members, elevating technical depth and structured problem-solving capability.
Partner with global teams, suppliers, and stakeholders to align engineering solutions with long-term strategy.
Communicate technical direction, tradeoffs, and recommendations clearly to leadership.
Remain adaptable to evolving priorities while maintaining accountability for system performance and reliability.
Skills & Knowledge:
Advanced knowledge of engineering principles within assigned discipline.
Strong system-thinking capability — understands interactions across processes, tools, data, and people.
Demonstrated ability to design scalable solutions beyond individual features.
Proficiency in advanced problem-solving methodologies (RCA, CAPA, FMEA, DOE, statistical analysis).
Ability to influence engineering direction without direct authority.
Experience driving standardization and engineering best practices.
Strong analytical, documentation, and cross-functional communication skills.
Ability to balance short-term operational needs with long-term system optimization.
