Manufacturing Quality & NPI Engineer

What you'll own

New product introduction

Take builds from EVT through DVT and PVT to ramp. Line and station layout, cycle time balancing, fixture design, and pilot-build FPY at target before we authorise volume.

Process documentation and control

PFMEA, control plans, work instructions, golden samples, FAI sign-off, and periodic audits against the released documents rather than against what the line has drifted into.

Test strategy

Define ICT and FCT jigs with engineering. Test coverage and limits, hipot and earth-continuity setups, BMS and pack functional test, gauge calibration and GR&R.

Incoming quality and lot disposition

AQL sampling plans per ISO 2859 for cells, BMS and adapters. Supplier 8D, scorecards, and the call on whether a lot ships.

What you bring

• Diploma or BE/BTech in Electronics, EEE, E&I, Mechatronics or a related discipline
• 4+ years in electronics manufacturing with real NPI exposure, not just sustaining
• Time spent across an organisational boundary: resident engineer, source inspection, SQE, or the EMS side handling a demanding customer. You know how to get things done in a plant you don't control
• You read schematics, BOMs, Gerbers and fab drawings, and can hold your own in a design review
• SMT fluency: reflow profiling, stencil and paste, AOI, ICT/FCT, conformal coating, rework
• Practical command of AQL sampling (ISO 2859 / IS 2500), PFMEA, control plans, 8D, 5-why, MSA/GR&R, SPC, calibration, and ESD control per IEC 61340
• Willing to travel to supplier and partner sites
