Job description

Manufacturing Engineer (Electronics & Electrical)

Perform failure analysis on failed PCBAs and electronic, electromechanical components returned from production or test.

Troubleshoot electronics issues using schematics, test data, logs, and measurement tools.

Identify systematic vs random failures and recommend corrective actions to reduce scrap and rework.

Support containment, root cause analysis, and corrective actions for electronics-related issues.

Analyze electronics failure trends at instrument and sub-assembly level and propose improvement initiatives through data‑driven analysis.

Work with Quality, Production, and R&D to implement corrective and preventive actions.

Test Engineering & Software Support

Support and improve electronics test systems (functional test, system test, diagnostics).

Develop or modify test software, scripts, or configurations to improve fault detection and debug capability.

Improve test coverage, test limits, and diagnostic effectiveness to reduce false failures and escapes.

Support test correlation and test robustness activities.

Schematic Review & Design Support

Read, interpret, and review electrical schematics and wiring diagrams to support troubleshooting.

Provide feedback to R&D on design weaknesses, test gaps, or field failure learnings.

Support basic schematic updates or test‑point recommendations where applicable.

Manufacturing & Cross‑Functional Support

Provide hands‑on electronics support on the production floor.

Work closely with Production, Quality, R&D, and Supplier Engineering teams to resolve issues.

Support audits and documentation related to electronics manufacturing under ISO 9001 / ISO 13485 environments.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, or equivalent.
• Minimum 2 years of experience supporting electronics in instrument, medical device, or precision equipment manufacturing.
• Strong ability to analyze and troubleshoot PCBAs using schematics and test data.
• Experience with electronics failure analysis and root cause methodologies.
• Working knowledge of electronics test software development or scripting (e.g. LabVIEW, Python, C/C++, or equivalent).
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and system diagrams.
• Familiarity with manufacturing documentation (WI, FA reports, corrective action records).
• Knowledge of ISO 9001 / ISO 13485 is an advantage.
• Data‑driven mindset with practical experience in scrap, yield, and trend analysis.
• Strong technical communication skills and ability to work effectively with cross‑functional teams.
• Hands‑on, disciplined, and problem‑solving oriented.
