Senior Engineer

Role & responsibilities

• Responsible for the Yield Improvement initiatives for all the deliverables:

_ Identify areas where yield loss occurs, whether due to material, process, or equipment failures.

_ Implement process improvements such as adjusting machine settings, optimizing raw material use, and improving quality control processes.

_ Work with design, engineering, and operations teams to identify and implement yield improvement strategies.

_ Establish tracking systems for monitoring yield over time and ensure consistent improvements.

• Eliminating people pain points and bottle neck areas by customized machine building along with maintenance and vendors:

_ Conduct time studies and process flow analyses to identify bottlenecks in production and areas causing delays.

_ Collaborate with vendors to source or build necessary components and machinery based on requirements.

_ Develop prototypes of the custom machines and test them in real-world production conditions to validate performance.

_ Work with maintenance teams to establish preventive maintenance routines for the new machines to reduce downtime.

• 100% implementation of process control measures:

_Establish standard operating procedures (SOPs) to ensure uniformity in production and quality control measures.

_Implement automated systems to monitor key variables like temperature, speed, and quality in real time.

_ Use statistical process control (SPC) tools to analyze and control process variations.

_ Keep detailed records of process control measures and ensure easy traceability for accountability.

• Process capability enhancement:

_Assess current process capabilities using process capability indices like CTP, CTQ, and others to understand areas for improvement

_Identify factors limiting process performance, including machine limitations, raw material inconsistencies, or operator skill gaps.

_Invest in high-performance equipment or modify existing machines to enhance capability.

_ Conduct experimental studies to understand the relationship between process inputs and outputs, optimizing for better performance.

_ Develop standardized work instructions to ensure processes are consistently followed and enhanced over time.

• Development of Jigs and Fixtures to Shorten Delivery Timelines:

_ Review existing production workflows and identify areas where jigs and fixtures can improve efficiency.

_ Design and prototype custom jigs and fixtures for specific production tasks, ensuring they improve speed and accuracy.

_ Analyse results and modify designs as needed to further shorten delivery timelines.

• Automotive-Focused Jewelry Manufacturing:

_Study the latest automotive trends

_Source materials that are suitable for both automotive design features

_Implement for the production
