process flows, and engineering documentation.
• Lead continuous improvement initiatives utilizing Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, 
Kaizen, 5S, SPC, and other operational excellence methodologies.
• Perform root cause analysis, failure investigations, and implement corrective and 
preventive actions (CAPA) to resolve manufacturing and quality issues.
• Design, develop, and implement manufacturing fixtures, tooling, and assembly 
processes for electronics and mechanical assemblies.
• Support assembly operations involving soldering, epoxy dispensing, electromechanical 
assembly, and related manufacturing processes.
• Collaborate with production, quality, supply chain, engineering, vendors, and customers 
to resolve technical issues and improve manufacturing performance.
• Establish process controls, collect and analyze production data, develop labor 
standards, and monitor key manufacturing metrics.
• Support installation, qualification, and validation of new manufacturing equipment and 
capital projects.
• Lead new product introduction (NPI) activities, ensuring successful transfer of products 
from design into production.
