Job Description

Manufacturing Engineer - 6 headcounts (Fresh graduates are welcome to apply) - 3 rotating shifts are compulsory

Job Summary

Manufacturing Engineer (MFE) own the end‑to‑end realization of manufacturing lines and processes for capitalequipment assemblies and sub‑systems; from product introduction/transition and pilot builds to stable high‑volumeproduction. Plan, design, validate, release, and sustain robust processes that meet Safety, Quality, Delivery, Cost,and Compliance objectives. Prepare and track CAPEX budget and justification for line setup (workbench/tools/jigs/fixtures/equipment), maintain all governed documentation, execute ECO/MCO changes, train and certify technicians,and lead Continuous Improvement (CI) to improve capability, throughput, and cost.

Duties and Responsibilities

1. Process & Line Design, Documentation, and Control
   • a. Define, validate, and maintain process definitions: routings, Standard WI, PFMEA, control plans, torque/alignment specs, test protocols, acceptance criteria, and special‑process qualifications (e.g.rework, cleaning, vacuum/leak‑check).
   • b. Ensure lines, workstations, fixtures, and test equipment meet capability (Cp/Cpk), repeatability, ergonomics, and EHS expectations; close gaps with corrective actions.
   • c. Maintain disciplined change control and revision control; keep all process documents audit‑ready.
2. NPI, Ramp‑Up & Product Realization
   • a. Lead the introduction and readiness of new designs/lines for high‑volume manufacturing: DFM/DFA reviews, tooling/fixture readiness, pilot builds, process prove‑out, capability studies (Cp/Cpk/GR&R), and ramp‑up validation.
   • b. Own full line realization planning: layout, capacity and cycle‑time modeling, staffing and line‑balance strategy until stable run‑rate is achieved.
   • c. Collaborate with Product Development, Quality, Production, and Supply Chain to ensure manufacturability, process control, training needs, and operational readiness from NPI through Sustaining.
3. Sustaining Issues Resolution & Engineering Change (EC) Execution
   • a. Provide daily technical support to production, troubleshoot process/product issues.
   • b. Active engagement in NCM investigations, proper disposition with stakeholders per QMS and closure of corrective/preventive actions, where relevant to process, workbench/tools/jigs/fixtures/equipment, WI, and internal material movement.
   • c. Lead structured problem solving (8D, DMAIC, 5‑Why, fishbone) and implement preventive actions for yield loss, defects, and build inconsistencies; support MRB and drive timely CAPA closure.
   • d. Plan and execute ECO/MCO cut‑ins (BOM/routing updates including Oracle Work Definition), documentation release, system updates, and cross‑functional approvals; ensure smooth implementation with minimal disruption.
   • e. Track performance against MFE KPIs; proactively conduct RCCA / CAPA when targets are at risk.
4. Tooling, Fixtures, Equipment & Automation
   • a. Specify, design/procure, qualify, and maintain jigs, fixtures, tooling, test systems, and automation; ensure capability (Cp/Cpk), GR&R, calibration, and preventive maintenance.
   • b. Develop equipment operating procedures and maintenance standards; ensure spares and calibration plans are in place.
5. Quality, Compliance & Supplier Support
   • a. Ensure full compliance to QMS, customer, and regulatory requirements; support audits and close findings on time.
   • b. Define in‑process/final inspection and test methods; monitor FPY, defect/rework rate, escapes/warranty and drive improvement.
   • c. Partner/Follow-up with QE/SQE/SDE for supplier's incoming quality, special processes, and corrective actions; define receiving inspection and acceptance sampling criteria.
6. Documentation, Systems & Training

   • b. Create training materials and certify technician qualifications.
7. Budget Ownership & Asset Stewardship
   • a. Own CAPEX/expense planning, justification (ROI/capability case), and submission for line setup, tools, fixtures, assembly/test equipment, and infrastructure; track spend vs. plan.
   • b. Ensure asset readiness and availability (testers, lifting aids, carts, racks, ergonomic tools) for safe, efficient operations.
8. Continuous Improvement (CI)
   • a. Identify and Lead CI
