Responsible for assigned line output, safety, yield and quality. Responsible for identification of product defects and determination of operational and process related actions to reduce the defects. This may also include equipment trouble-shooting and sub-sequent work order request.
Works with line support team (QC supervisor, Mfg. Supervisor, Quality Engineer and Operations) to perform on the line issue triage to evaluate issues and determine if non-conformance is present, determine initial bracketing and containment, and generate ER if needed.
Responsible for product/process knowledge and understanding of basic cause and effect of line changes. Considered and expert in statistics, product and Engineering process.
Responsible for providing the line with related Engineering fixes, such as tooling (TLTs) and manufacturing aids (from idea definition to implementation). Knowledgeable of procedures related to equipment controls.
Support technicians and supervisors in equipment availability issues.
Supports Training and Certification Program. Provides additional insight on how to improve trainings and certifications in the best interest of the business.
Responsible for determining quality impact of Out-of-Tolerance documents.
Responsible for execution of line related change management (material, equipment and process changes). Responsible for CO and CR generation related to moderate to complex changes impacting the manufacturing line.
Responsible for continuous improvement projects development and execution, including CAPAs implementations. Responsible for exception subtask execution.
Evaluates ideas from the LPI program for potential implementation.
Leads root cause analysis efforts for high complexity manufacturing events, utilizing DMAIC model and A3s. Leads CAPA (Major) investigations with data gathering and analysis as needed. Owns CAPA activities without oversight.
Runs studies and validations on the line as needed. Be the Manufacturing Engineer representative for manufacturing related projects including yield, CIP's, productivity, quality and safety.
Responsible for coordination of product builds through the NPI process. Generates all types of changes to the eLHR system. Leads ME support during external and internal audits.
Acts as coach and mentor to more inexperienced engineers or technical personnel. Leads statistical analysis for complex events at the site. Can generate qualification and validation protocols and reports with minimal oversight.
Owns basic to medium to high complexity CR activities with no oversight. Demonstrates comprehensive understanding of regulations in area of work and where to look for information. Considered SME for most Engineering matters.
In conjunction with RA: Understands regulatory implications of proposed changes. Understands what types of changes require filings. Completes documentation to support regulatory filings with oversight. Minimal oversight required for problems or assignments of reasonable difficulty. Makes decision in an efficient manner, even when having limited information.
Considers risk mitigation in planning based on lessons learned or from peers. Reviews previous similar projects and activities as part of the decision-making process. Anticipates potential situations that may impact projects timeline and resolves them before they become an issue.
