•
Collaborate with the test engineering team to improve test processes, cycle time and automation.
•
Run gage R&R for line qualification and station matching and prepare MSA report.
•
Analyze production data (SPC/yield) to identify, troubleshoot, and resolve test failures, driving corrective and preventive actions (8D, 5 Whys).
•
Create and maintain technical documentation, including test procedures, operator work instructions, and calibration procedures.
•
Lead the integration with factory MES systems to improve visibility to assembly traceability and quality.
•
Drive DfT, design and development of PCBA test stations such as ICT and FCT used in our manufacturing line.
•
Develop the test strategy for the product, working cross-functionally with stakeholders such as the product design, manufacturing, and quality teams to determine test requirements and drive execution of associated projects.
•
Drive continuous improvement in the manufacturing process by analyzing manufacturing data to identify trends and identify root causes of failures.
•
Collaborate and influence the product development process and schedules, lead yield reporting and failure analysis process.
