As a Manufacturing Design Engineer will work on problems of diverse scope in support of day to day manufacturing team activity, new production introduction (NPI) and continuous improvement projects (CIP).
- Work with Production Personnel (technicians, planners, buyers), and multi-disciplinary team of engineers to generate Plans of Action and resolve complex manufacturing issues and implement corrective action.
- Setup and drive multi-disciplinary team (Mechatronic, Mechanical, Optical, Electrical, Test and/or System Engineers) to address product-level issues (manufacturing customer concerns, supplier issues, tool characterization or improvement projects).
- Fully understands and applies problem solving methods (7-Step/8D ) to uncover root cause and to devise solutions for sophisticated problems.
- Perform failure analysis.
- Responsible for developing, implementing, and maintaining methods, operation sequence and processes in the fabrication of parts, components, subassemblies, and final assemblies. Configure BOM’s to meet factory requirements.
- Generate, read and interpret design drawings, schematics, and perform updates of models or drawings using computer-aided design (CAD) tools. Interpret system models of error, sensitivity, or budgets that pertain to thermal, airflow, loading & other mechanical considerations.
- Analyze manufacturing data from eQuality, a manufacturing enterprise software (MES) via statistical process control to drive process, specs and design improvements.
- Understand basic project planning, dependencies, and milestones. Interpret and update Gantt charts.
- Potential travel both domestically and internationally up to 25% of the time.
Qualifications, but not limited to:
- Experience with Optical, Mechatronics, HVAC and Electromechanical technologies and sophisticated, precision, industrial equipment.
- Precision Motion Control Instrumentbackground; microscopes, robotics, medical, stages,etc....
- Ability to analyze and interpret complex data. Strong diagnostic and problem-solving skills in optics, opto-mechanics, and motion control systems.
- An effective communicator able to share technical information with functional groups and provide executive level reports to management and customers.
- Results oriented and driven to excel. Agility and ability to flourish in a fast-paced program and respond quickly to field/internal issues.
- Natural curiosity, inventiveness, and an interest in making things work better.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
