TE Connectivity
SR Mfg & Process Dvl Engineer
TE Connectivity's Manufacturing Process Engineer will work with cross-functional teams to develop and design manufacturing processes throughout all phases of the NPD as well as enhance existing processes. The acts as the binding element between product development and manufacturing engineering, ensuring the effectiveness and efficiency of this critical interface. They are responsible for tooling and fixturing designs; process development for new and production processes; creation of equipment specification; and implementation of new equipment into production. Activities include conducting DOE's; feasibility studies, testing on new and modified manufacturing processes; directing and supporting detailed design, testing, prototype fabrication and manufacturing ramp up. The Manufacturing Process Engineer will provide all required product documentation including SOP's for new Production Processes, Product validation plans for production, Maintenance requirements for new equipment. Responsibilities Develop equipment specifications and validation requirements based upon plant quality requirements Develop innovative designs to meet all manufacturing requirements for assembly, test, and manufacturability Utilize 2D and 3D CAD skills to create/modify models and detailed drawings Research new manufacturing processes that can be used in new equipment design and process improvements Participate and lead prototype build activities to ensure compliance with design intent Work in the engineering laboratory to build prototypes for testing and customer delivery Design and build fixturing and jigs to be used in the manufacturing process of new products Create and implement Design of Experiments (DOE) and other testing to understand the responses to design and manufacturing variables Maintain engineering documentation including Engineering Change Orders (ECO) and Bills of Materials (BOM) Create reports and presentations to communicate status updates and progress to operations, development team and customers Communicate directly with customers to understand and develop product requirements and provide project updates Coordinate with fellow design engineers, the Project Manager and other departments to transfer new products into production Work with local and outsourced machine shops to build and modify parts used for testing and development Lead and participate in Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) sessions Support released products by creating cost saving and design improvements 10%-25% travel required dependent on project status What Your Background Should Look Like: Education and experience Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline Graduate degrees welcome Minimum 5 years of engineering design or manufacturing engineering and process development experience preferred Qualifications Proficient in MS Office software such as Excel, Word, Outlook Experience with 2D modeling software AutoCAD, ZWCAD Demonstrated proficiency with 3D modeling software Inventor, SolidWorks, Creo, etc. Familiarity with statistical analysis Minitab software experience preferred Knowledge of Design of Experiments Knowledge of lean manufacturing, continuous improvement (Kaizen, 5S, 6?) Understanding of the NPD process from design initiation to production release Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt training beneficial Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; able to lead cross-functional project teams and train shop floor employees Strong project management and organizational skills Familiarity with automation systems, PLCs, and digital manufacturing systems is a plus This position requires access to information which is subject to stringent controls under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or Export Administration Regulations (EAR). Applicants must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. lawful permanent resident, person granted asylee status in the U.S., or person admitted into the U.S. as a refugee.
