Experience using scripting languages and data analysis tools such as Matlab, Python or JMP.

Description（岗位职责）

Determine specifications to assess overall performance of optical architectures, through rigorous tolerance analysis, assessing manufacturing capabilities and understanding downstream as well as customer-facing requirements.

Drive design/process/spec validation, FMEA, failure analysis, tolerance analysis, gauge R&R and GD&T activities, towards demonstrating design robustness and process manufacturability and scalability of optical modules and systems.

Drive equipment DFM reviews for assembly processes such as high precision active/passive alignment, and apply lean manufacturing principles to the end-to-end design of assembly and automation of high-volume manufacturing lines.

Drive in-field failure analysis, mitigations and corrective actions for assembly process equipment performance, UPH, OEE and yield gaps.

Drive suppliers to provide data analysis and reports of process equipment performance capability.

Ensure manufacturability, scalability and reliability are considered in end-to-end discussions on design and process down-selection, prototyping, equipment & tooling needs for high-precision assembly.

Share assessment of manufacturability of optical/mechanical designs and assembly processes with internal team members and NPI engineering leadership at each stage of development.

Engage in optical module DFM and assembly process validation

support module builds and system integration activities at external suppliers

and evaluate/assess the manufacturability of prototype optical systems.

Collaborate to standardize data collection and reporting practices

identify component and process CTQs

drive IQC/IPQC/OQC capabilities and methodologies in place for CTQ data collection, analysis, monitoring and reporting and OCAP for high-volume manufacturing.

Document, standardize, and collaboratively implement best practices, SOPs, and operational models.

Influence cross-functional teams of engineers and managers to drive the development and delivery of first-generation optical systems to life.

Develop relationships with component and equipment supplier companies, keep informed on new materials and fabrication methods, and on latest developments/capabilities in advanced high-precision assembly and manufacturing processes.

Additional Requirements（额外要求）

Master’s or PhD degree in Mechanical/Opto-mechanical/Optical Engineering or related field.

8+ years experience in mechanical or opto-mechanical engineering or an equivalent role.
