Job Description
• Evaluates and develops processes that meet product performance, high volume surface mount manufacturing, high reliability requirements.
• Constantly strives to improve the Cpk of surface mount processes by actively using SPC and problem solving methodology.
• Determines failure mechanisms related to materials and processes for surface mount assembly and related processes. Formulates and executes yield, reliability, manufacturability improvements under tight time constraints in a team environment.
• Works with appropriate design, quality, operations and manufacturing groups to ensure product performance, reliability and manufacturability requirements are met.
• Individual will be hands on in creating paste and flux printing programs, AOI inspection programs, solder paste inspection programs and creating reflow profiles. This role will be hands on.
• Individual will assist and take part in printed circuit board reviews with an emphasis on design for manufacturability.
Education / Qualifications
• BS in Mechanical, Chemical or Industrial Engineering.
• Minimum three years’ experience in surface mount technology
• Solid understanding of high volume equipment, materials and processes for a world class surface mount assembly line.
• Must be proficient in Minitab or other statistical analysis software and in Excel.
• Demonstrated experience in improving yields, throughput and Cpk in a high volume surface mount production line.
• Hands on experience in creating solder paste and flux printing programs as well as SPI and AOI inspection programs. Competent in creating reflow profiles.
• Knowledge of SPC, design of experiments and statistical analyses and has applied this knowledge to making measurable improvements.
• Familiarity with Six Sigma tools such as failure modes and effects analyses and control plans to identify and prevent problems.
• Ability to be an independent, creative thinker to solve cutting edge technical challenges. Welcomes a fast paced work environment.
• ASM Siplace Pick and Place experience preferred but not required.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
