Key Responsibilities

• Preventive Maintenance (PM): Develop and execute daily, weekly, monthly, and annual maintenance schedules to minimize machine failure rates.
• Breakdown Maintenance (BM): Diagnose and repair machine failures rapidly (involving mechanical, pneumatic, vacuum, and electrical control systems) during production downtime.
• Spare Parts Management: Oversee the procurement, inventory levels, and cost‑control measures for critical components.
• OEE Improvement: Enhance Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) by identifying and reducing unscheduled downtime.
• MTTR Reduction: Optimize repair procedures and troubleshooting tools to minimize the Mean Time To Repair.
• MTBF Extension: Analyze bottlenecks and perform technical upgrades or process tuning to extend the Mean Time Between Failures.
• New Equipment Introduction (NPI): Responsible for the installation, calibration, parameter setting, and production validation of new machinery.
• Process Collaboration: Partner with Process Engineers (IE) to adjust equipment parameters to meet new product development or engineering change (ECN) requirements.
• Program Maintenance: Debugging and maintaining PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) programs, HMI (Human‑Machine Interface), robotic arm paths, and machine vision systems.
• System Integration: Ensure equipment data communicates reliably with MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) or EAP (Equipment Automation Platforms).

Qualifications

• Automation / Mechanical Engineering or electronic engineering and related majors.
• Fluent English.
• Mechatronics: Proficiency in reading and interpreting electrical schematics, pneumatic diagrams, and mechanical blueprints.
• PLC & Control: Familiarity with programming and troubleshooting major PLC brands (e.g., Mitsubishi, Siemens, Omron).
• Precision Components: Knowledge of servo motors, ball screws, linear guides, sensors, vacuum pumps, and robotic arms (e.g., FANUC, ABB, Epson).
• Vision Systems: Understanding of CCD cameras, lighting, and image processing algorithms (e.g., Cognex, Keyence).
• Proficient in using multimeters, oscilloscopes, calibration instruments, and other diagnostic tools.
• Ability to use AutoCAD or SolidWorks to view or modify component drawings.
• Familiarity with typical electronics manufacturing equipment, such as WS (Wave solder) machines, screws machine, dispensers, ultrasonic welders, vacuum sealers, or semiconductor‑related equipment.
