I am here listing down few applications that Component Engineers can do for a Semiconductor Company or OEMs. You may add more to it if you think I missed any:
1. Maintaining BOM
2. Finding our Cross Parts
3. Parametric Product Comparison
4. Sourcing the right Components from right suppliers
5. Maintaining EOL, PCNs and intimating to right person
6. Developing Internal Part Numbers
7. Maintaining RoHS and REACH
8. Collecting feedback from engineers on sample parts which they used for their prototype designs but provided no f/b to component manufacturer whether they considered it or not considered. This process is very powerful for enhancing the components.
9. Applications of Components
10. Sales and Marketing of Components
