About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Manufacturing Performance & KPI Management
- Yield & Quality Ownership: Monitor and manage manufacturing KPIs, including first-pass test yields, Out-of-Box Experience (OBE), and warranty failure rates.
- Downtime Mitigation: Lead troubleshooting efforts to resolve production-line issues, minimizing manufacturing downtime and ensuring stable factory output.
- Shipment Fulfillment: Provide daily production support to ensure product shipments meet revenue and delivery targets.
- Technical Leadership & Problem Solving
- Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Conduct deep-dive investigations into manufacturing and quality issues using structured methodologies such as 8D, Six Sigma, or LEAN.
- Failure Analysis: Coordinate failure analysis on defects to identify structural improvements and prevent repeat failures.
- Optical Diagnostics: Execute module-level diagnostics, including alignment checks and sensor accuracy investigations.
- Product Lifecycle & Engineering Management
- Change Management: Manage Bill of Materials (BOM) and lead Engineering Change Management (ECM/ECN) processes for released products.
- Continuous Improvement: Identify and implement cost reduction initiatives and process optimizations to enhance manufacturing efficiency.
- Alternative Sourcing: Identify and qualify alternative materials or components when existing parts face obsolescence.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Technical Bridge: Serve as the primary point of contact between R&D, internal engineering teams, and supplier’s manufacturing/engineering teams.
