Description

In this highly visible role, you will manage selection, implementation & optimization of assembly manufacturing processes for mechanical enclosure subassemblies for our legendary products.
- Design best-in-class assembly process based on product drawing and cosmetic spec, mapping out proper process flow and ERS which includes processing equipment selection, corresponding fixture design, and DOE design that informs the optimal parameters.
- Develop single automation or integrated automation line with new technologies implemented to ensure high levels of product assembly quality, which is used to fulfill the entire manufacturing process of our different types of enclosure parts and subassemblies on Phone project, including but not limited to: small parts assembly & welding, glue dispensing, film lamination.
- Utilize your mechanical engineering experience to provide guidance on equipment design, machine layout, part flow, assembly and movement mechanism, fixture design, accuracy control, standard components selection, robot & CCD implementation, SW flowchart, system integration, etc.
- Be deeply involved in the entire equipment development cycle, including: initial automation proposal, machine selection, prototype machine testing & evaluation, leading DOEs to validate machine stability as well as process capability. Would also be working on existing machine continuous improvement, cycle time reduction, OEE improvement, modification or retrofit.
- Provide leadership at manufacturing sites during development and product production ramp.
- Coordination of activities and direction through clear communication between the Asia and US-based teams, and vendors is a necessity.
- Work cross functionally with Product Design Engineering to assess product features for manufacturability, and recommend capable production processes and equipment.
- Work closely with Cupertino-based MDEs in the development of above said processes.
- Work with Global Supply Managers to develop new equipment from RFQ through factory implementation, and manufacture and deliver material to downstream supply chain nodes on time and on cost.
- Work with MQE to drive yield improvement through SPC, Pareto data review to take activities accordingly.
