Eaton has been a key player in the Middle East for 40 years. We recently announced the construction of a new sustainable campus in Dubai, which will bring together our commercial, manufacturing, and support functions, providing room for future growth.
About EatonEaton is a power management company where we provide energy-efficient solutions that help our customers effectively manage electrical, hydraulic and mechanical power more efficiently, safely and sustainably. Eaton is dedicated to improving the quality of life and the environment through the use of power management technology and services. Eaton has approximately 96,000 employees and sells products to customers in more than 175 countries.
As Soldering Process Engineer – PCBA, you set-up, validate, maintain and improve Wave soldering/Selective Wave Soldering/Manual soldering/Robotic soldering/Depanelling equipment, and related manufacturing processes, to secure EATON production quality standards and constantly improve customer satisfatction. This role ensures PCBA soldering and depanelling manufacturing process optimization for New Product Introduction, Transfered PCBA from other EATON plants or EMS, and ensure robust and stable production processes compliance with industry standards, supporting product quality, and operational excellence, in line with EATON Safety rules.
The Soldering Process Engineer will design Soldering and depanelling processes through each manufacturing steps, interacts with R&Ds during design phases (manufacturability of PCB & PCBA), by supporting Industrialization Program Manager, optimizes Soldering and depanelling processes and minimize defect and scrap rates, supports production in quality improvement, suggests CI and VAVE projects for productivity improvement and ensures soldering/Depanelling process benchmark to enhance EATON operational productivity.
What you’ll do:- Develop, deliver and maintain Operators and Maintenance work instruction and plan, for related Soldering, depaneling and XRay equipment processes, related to equipment operation, and PCBA specific instructions.
- Proactive in PCBA soldering and depanelling Prototypes manufacturing, for NPI and transfered PCBA projects.
- Support Industrialization program manager in Pro Launch Manufacturing delivrables release:
Process flow Chart, PFMEA, PPAP, etc.. - Support Industrialization program manager to influence PCB/PCBA design through DFM reviews, with R&D
- Ensure PCBA Soldering and depanelling ECO/MCO effective implementation in due time.
- Track and improve Waves soldering, Manual and robot soldering, depaneling and XRay lines cycle times for each PCBA SKU, and Update related RCCP data with production manager
- Support customer audit and Plant quality certification programs at Soldering Level.
- Manage tool procurement for Soldering, Depaneling and XRay purposes:
Wave soldering frames, manual soldering fixtures, Robot soldering fixtures, Depanelling tools, etc... - Program and set-up Waves soldering, Selective wave soldering, Robot soldering, manual soldering, depanelling (Asys and Maestro) and XRay equipment for soldering production processes ourside of SMT.
- Manage consistency of equipment programing database and standards, across production lines and PCBA SKUs
