About the role

  • Design, implement, and maintain statistically controlled (SPC) manufacturing processes.
  • Develop and automate data collection systems using data analysis tools to monitor key process indicators.
  • Act as the primary manufacturing interface to the design engineering team.
  • Use statistical tolerance analysis, Gage Repeatability & Reproducibility (GR&R), and Design of Experiments (DOE) to guide Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) activities.
  • Perform rigorous analysis of manufacturing data to identify sources of variation and drive corrective actions.
  • Create and maintain process monitoring dashboards using data analysis tools to report on.
  • Act as the technical lead for the specification, characterization, and qualification of automated and manual assembly and inspection equipment.
  • Use process capability data (Cp/Cpk) to validate equipment performance against design and production requirements.
  • Engage with vendors to ensure equipment meets technical specifications.
  • Utilize formal problem-solving methodologies (e.g., Six Sigma, FMEA) to systematically improve manufacturing line performance, reduce scrap, and increase throughput.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or MS degree in Mechatronics, Robotics, Product Design Electromechanical Systems
  • 3+ years of experience focused on working with precision mechanical or mechatronic assemblies for consumer products.
  • Strong understanding of and/or experience with products that use mechatronic technology (e.g. actuators, haptics, linear motors)
  • Strong understanding of and/or experience with assemblies that utilize sensors
  • Strong competency in interpreting mechanical drawings and applying Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) principles to tolerance stack-up analysis.
  • Proficiency with data querying languages (SQL) and scripting for data analysis (Python).
  • Demonstrated expertise in statistical analysis software (JMP, Minitab, or similar with scientific computing libraries).
  • Extensive practical application of SPC, including control chart implementation (e.g., I-MR, Xbar-R) and interpretation.
  • In-depth experience designing and analyzing DOEs (e.g., factorial, response surface) to solve complex process problems.
  • Thorough understanding and execution of Measurement System Analysis (MSA) and GR&R.
  • Expertise in process capability analysis (Cp/Cpk) and its application for process validation and monitoring.
  • Demonstrated project management skills in a cross-functional, global environment.
  • Ability to work independently and manage evolving priorities.
  • Experience working directly with international Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Contract Manufacturers (CMs).
  • Ability to support a travel schedule of approximately 25% to manufacturing and supplier sites.
Benefits
  • Paid time off
  • Bonus plan
  • 401(k) plan
  • Education assistance
