Manufacturing Engineer III

About the Company

Responsibilities

• ● Process & Line Design, Documentation, and Control
• ● Define, validate, and maintain process definitions: routings, Standard WI, PFMEA, control plans, torque/alignment specs, test protocols, acceptance criteria, and special process qualifications (e.g.rework, cleaning, vacuum/leak check).
• ● Ensure lines, workstations, fixtures, and test equipment meet capability (Cp/Cpk), repeatability, ergonomics, and EHS expectations; close gaps with corrective actions.
• ● Maintain disciplined change control and revision control; keep all process documents audit ready.
• ● NPI, Ramp Up & Product Realization
• ● Lead the introduction and readiness of new designs/lines for high volume manufacturing: DFM/DFA reviews, tooling/fixture readiness, pilot builds, process prove out, capability studies (Cp/Cpk/GR&R), and ramp up validation.
• ● Own full line realization planning: layout, capacity and cycle time modeling, staffing and line balance strategy until stable run rate is achieved.
• ● Collaborate with Product Development, Quality, Production, and Supply Chain to ensure manufacturability, process control, training needs, and operational readiness from NPI through Sustaining.
• ● Sustaining Issues Resolution & Engineering Change (EC) Execution
• ● Provide daily technical support to production, troubleshoot process/product issues.
• ● Active engagement in NCM investigations, proper disposition with stakeholders per QMS and closure of corrective/preventive actions, where relevant to process, workbench/tools/jigs/fixtures/equipment, WI, and internal material movement.
• ● Lead structured problem solving (8D, DMAIC, 5 Why, fishbone) and implement preventive actions for yield loss, defects, and build inconsistencies; support MRB and drive timely CAPA closure.
• ● Plan and execute ECO/MCO cut ins (BOM/routing updates including Oracle Work Definition), documentation release, system updates, and cross functional approvals; ensure smooth implementation with minimal disruption.
• ● Track performance against MFE KPIs; proactively conduct RCCA / CAPA when targets are at risk.
• ● Tooling, Fixtures, Equipment & Automation
• ● Specify, design/procure, qualify, and maintain jigs, fixtures, tooling, test systems, and automation; ensure capability (Cp/Cpk), GR&R, calibration, and preventive maintenance.
• ● Develop equipment operating procedures and maintenance standards; ensure spares and calibration plans are in place.
• ● Quality, Compliance & Supplier Support
• ● Ensure full compliance to QMS, customer, and regulatory requirements; support audits and close findings on time.
• ● Define in process/final inspection and test methods; monitor FPY, defect/rework rate, escapes/warranty and drive improvement.
• ● Partner/Follow-up with QE/SQE/SDE for supplier's incoming quality, special processes, and corrective actions; define receiving inspection and acceptance sampling criteria.
• ● Documentation, Systems & Training
• ● Maintain controlled documentation (BOM, routings, WI, drawings) in PLM/MRP (Agile/Oracle); keep the Oracle Work Definitions (WD) current.
• ● Create training materials and certify technician qualifications.
• ● Budget Ownership & Asset Stewardship
• ● Own CAPEX/expense planning, justification (ROI/capability case), and submission for line setup, tools, fixtures, assembly/test equipment, and infrastructure; track spend vs. plan.
• ● Ensure asset readiness and availability (testers, lifting aids, carts, racks, ergonomic tools) for safe, efficient operations.
• ● Continuous Improvement (CI)
• ● Identify and Lead CI to improve workflow, layout, line balance, takt alignment, SMED, WIP, OEE, and equipment utilization; quantify benefits to support business objectives.
• ● Apply Lean tools: Poka Yoke, visual controls, standardized work, 5S+Safety; drive waste reduction and material recovery/reuse.
• ● Advance digitalization/automation (workflow simplification, dashboards, system-implement VF) and benchmark best practices; maintain PFMEA relevance and process capability growth.
• ● Benchmark industry best practices and recommend technologies, equipment upgrades, or process innovations that enhance manufacturing performance and sustainability.
• ● Compliance, Policy Obligations & Governance
• ● Comply with all company policies, code of conduct, ethical standards, and applicable laws and regulations.
• ● Adhere to QMS, EHS, data/IP protection, workplace protocols, and all relevant corporate, regulatory, or customer requirements.
• ● Support internal and external audits by providing accurate documentation and evidence. Timely closure of audit findings and observations.
• ● Others
• ● Perform other duties as assigned within the scope of this role or with potential expansion in scope based on business needs.

Requirements

• ● Bachelor's degree in Mechanical/Manufacturing/Electrical/Mechatronics Engineering (or related).
• ● Demonstrated proficiency in process documentation (PFMEA, control plans, WI), root cause analysis, and validation methods (capability studies, GR&R).
• ● Hands on experience with fixtures/tooling, measurement systems, and industrial safety practices.
• ● Able to work on 3 rotating shift
