Our mission? Deliver high-quality display solutions and design services that help our customers grow—while continuously pushing the limits of what’s possible.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you a hands-on engineer with a comprehensive background in electronics, quality systems, and production assembly? As our Manufacturing Process Engineer, you will be the critical link that translates design specifications into efficient, repeatable, and high-quality manufacturing processes for our cutting-edge display products. You will leverage your expertise to support the production floor, troubleshoot issues, and ensure seamless communication between our Engineering, Quality, and Production teams.

If you are a proactive problem-solver with a passion for process excellence in electronics manufacturing, this is a fantastic opportunity to make a direct impact on product yield and operational efficiency.

WHAT YOU'LL DO (Key Responsibilities):

Cross-Functional Liaison & Engineering Support

• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for the Production floor, communicating daily with operators, technicians, and supervisors.
• Translate new product designs and Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) into clear, actionable manufacturing plans and requirements.
• Act as the "Voice of Manufacturing" to the Design Engineering team, providing constructive feedback on manufacturability.

Production Troubleshooting & Root Cause Analysis

• Provide hands-on technical support to production lines to resolve assembly, test, and process issues to minimize downtime.
• Participate in the Root Cause Analysis (RCA) process for all production defects, failures, and yield excursions.
• Manage the Material Review Board (MRB) process, prescribing the appropriate disposition (repair, rework, or scrap) for non-conforming display assemblies.
• Design, implement, and maintain custom fixtures and test equipment used by the production team.

Process Documentation & Optimization

• Develop, write, and maintain clear, detailed Manufacturing Work Instructions for new and existing product assemblies.
• Utilize Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma methodologies to continuously analyze and improve production processes, targeting improvements in cycle time, cost, and first-pass yield.
• Ensure all production documentation meets internal quality standards and is compliant with relevant industry certifications (e.g., ISO 9001).

Quality Assurance Collaboration

• Collaborate directly with the Quality team to establish in-process inspection points and quality control checks.
• Implement Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) based on identified process gaps and quality trends.
• Audit manufacturing processes and equipment to ensure they are operating within defined parameters and validated limits.

WHAT YOU BRING:

Education & Experience

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 4+ years of experience in a technical role within a manufacturing environment, preferably in electronics assembly, display technology (LCD, OLED, TFT), or PCBA.
• Proven experience in a cross-functional role serving as a liaison between engineering, quality, and production.

Technical Skills (Hard Skills)

• Strong foundation in electronics theory and the ability to interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, and component datasheets.
• Proficiency in process improvement methodologies (e.g., Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma).
• Experience with quality systems (e.g., ISO 9001) and strong experience leading Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
• Familiarity with production equipment, tooling, and process validation in an electronics manufacturing environment (e.g., soldering, wire bonding, assembly).
• Ability to read, interpret, and modify technical documentation (CAD drawings, BOMs).

Soft Skills

• Excellent problem-solving skills with a high degree of urgency to resolve production issues and minimize line downtime.
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical production staff and management alike.
• Superior attention to detail and strong organizational skills to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
