Molex designs and mass-produces electro-mechanical and fiber optic interconnects, with a stack split between engineering simulation (HFSS, Siemens NX, Teamcenter, Polarion) and automotive-grade quality tooling (APQP, PPAP, FMEA, SPC, IATF 16949). Hiring is engineering-dominant and centered on Asia and Mexico, matching active work on datacom interconnects, NPI and production transfers, though overall hiring velocity is slowing.
