Job description

Quality Engineer (New Product Development)

NPD / PQE / CQE Quality Engineer supports the New Product Development, Manufacturing and Field Issues Feedback to ensure all quality end-to-end issues are resolved and proactively work towards improving product quality and reliability, stabilize it to get ready got HVM (high volume manufacturing) or mass production.

Responsibilities

Work with stakeholders to ensure the QMS is accurate and adhere to in relation to New Products, Prototype, or first few pilot machines, especially for AP (Advance Packaging) areas.

Responsible for reviewing product BOM structure and drawings, process flow charts of entire supply chain from vendor to post shipment servicing, design reviews and validation plans that covers from theory, T=0 hour and T= x hours reliability before implementation. Generate reports, including relevant documentation such as risk assessments, process flow, critical part list and it’s CTQ (Critical to Quality) and CTF (Critical to Function), supplier establishment, assembly, and final test tool assessments, etc.

Manage first article inspection (FAI), and closely monitor parts quality at initial lots, before released for mass production.

Works with production and engineering to develop an effective measurement metrology (MSOP), improve in-process inspection and measurement, be it at part level, module level or machine level. Get the whole list of part MSOP ready before hand over to mass production team.

Assure acceptance and methodologies are fully documented with appropriate test coverage, such that product inspection / validation / testing is properly performed, including develop, maintain and revise validation / test requirements.

Actively participating in design reviews activities and provide input for new product development.

Develop PPAP, QCP (Quality Control Plan), and incoming control plan for critical purchasing parts that are “Critical to Quality CTQ” and “Critical to Function CTF”, by ensuring form, fit, function and cosmetic requirements at part, module, and machine level.

Actively use 3P principles (Protect, Prevent, Predict) to drive root cause analysis and CAPA using tools such as 8D, 5Why, FTA, MBPS, etc. Prepare lesson learnt, cascade them to other relevant products, and translate key learnings into system workflow improvements to prevent recurrence and strengthen quality management effectiveness.

Work closely with internal customers to ensure production reject DPPM and cycle time is at satisfactory level.

Work closely with Field Service Team to collect field feedback. For customer complaints, facilitate related stakeholders to output the Root Cause, Corrective Actions and Preventive Actions.
