Responsibilities:
1. New Product Introduction (NPI) & Model Changeover
- Develop and author critical process documentation, including Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Quality Control Flow Charts (QCFCs), based on new model drawings and engineering standards.
- Lead and execute model changeover activities, meticulously verifying and synchronizing machine parameters with official standards to ensure process readiness.
- Collaborate with Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (AME) and other departments to conduct production line buy-offs, formally qualifying equipment and processes for trial runs.
- Manage structured, multi-batch trial runs (e.g., 100/100/120 pcs) by establishing checkpoints, identifying potential failure modes, and leading real-time issue resolution.
- Conduct post-trial evaluations to document key learnings, identify potential risks for NG products, and formalize process settings for mass production.
- Provide dedicated engineering support during the initial mass production phase to monitor process stability and ensure a smooth operational handover.
2. Process Improvement & Quality Assurance
- Proactively monitor production line performance by tracking First Pass Yield (FPY) metrics through the Kanban system to identify areas for improvement.
- Initiate and implement continuous improvement projects aimed at increasing FPY, reducing scrap rates (NG products), and enhancing overall process efficiency.
- Conduct in-depth root cause analysis (RCA) for NG products and critical process deviations (CTS).
- Utilize a multi-faceted approach for investigation, including on-the-floor process audits, data analysis, and review of CCTV footage to accurately identify the source of issues.
3. Process Control & Documentation Management
- Manage and maintain all process-related documentation within the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system.
- Update SOPs and QCFCs to reflect changes in machine parameters, process optimization steps, or responses to quality issues.
- Analyze and refine process steps to systematically reduce production cycle time while maintaining quality standards.
- Adjust and standardize machine parameters to correct for variations in measurement or to align with engineering changes.
Requirements:
- A Bachelor's Degree (S1) in an engineering discipline is required (Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics / Electrical Engineering).
- Proficiency in
Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
techniques. - Have a knowledge of
Lean Manufacturing
principles.
