The role requires deep hands‑on expertise across SMT processes, Box Build, Conformal Coating, Potting, MI (Manual Insertion), ICT/FCT testing, strong debugging and RCA capabilities, along with the ability to leverage MES and digital quality systems for traceability, FPY, and yield improvement. The ideal candidate will ensure zero‑defect quality, strong process discipline, and world‑class customer satisfaction while leading and developing a high‑performance quality organisation.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead Quality across SMT, THT/MI, Wave/Selective Solder, Conformal Coating, Potting, Assembly, and Box Build.
• Drive end-to-end PCBA quality control: SPI/AOI performance, reflow quality, solder defects, FPY improvement, and yield enhancement.
• Oversee ICT/FCT test quality, FA/FR activities, troubleshooting, and debugging of component- and process-level failures.
• Establish strong root‑cause analysis (RCA) frameworks—8D, 5Why, Ishikawa, DOE, and robust CAPA implementation.
• Ensure quality compliance with IPC‑A‑610, J‑STD‑001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, IATF 16949 (where applicable).

• Lead Box Build quality—mechanical fitment, harness quality, torque checks, visual inspection, and product validation.
• Drive customer quality interface, audit readiness, corrective actions, RMA handling, and customer‑reported defect analysis.
• Collaborate with MES and Digital Manufacturing teams to use MES data for quality control, traceability, FPY/yield dashboards, and real‑time defect monitoring.
• Set up/update SOPs, work instructions, control plans, PFMEA, and quality documentation.
• Lead, mentor, and develop a multi‑layered quality team across shifts and functional segments.
• Improve key metrics: FPY, DPMO, rework %, line yield, customer PPM, audit findings, and on‑time audit closures.

Qualifications

• BE/B.Tech in Electronics/Electrical/Instrumentation/Mechanical (preferred).
• 15–17 years of EMS/PCBA quality experience with strong SMT/Assembly/Testing exposure.
• Strong technical understanding of SMT machines, reflow profiles, soldering standards, coating/potting processes, and Box Build workflows.
• Expertise in ICT/FCT, test debugging, failure root‑cause analysis, and reliability testing.
• Exposure to MES‑driven quality workflows, traceability, and digital quality reporting.
• Proficiency with statistical quality tools, ERP systems, and QMS documentation.

Preferred Certifications

• IPC‑A‑610 Expert/Trainer
• IPC‑J‑STD‑001
