Manufacturing Yield & Device Analytics Engineer

Job Title:
Manufacturing Yield & Device Analytics Engineer

Reports to:

Process Engineering Manager

Location:

San Marcos, Texas

We have one goal: to manufacture quality magnets! We are looking for exceptional individuals who want to learn, build, and lay a foundation for our company for the years to
come.

About this role
You will be responsible for tracking, optimizing, analyzing, and sustaining manufacturing performance to directly improve operational efficiency, product quality, yield performance,
and cost-effectiveness. This role completely bridges physical manufacturing fundamentals with advanced analytical problem-solving, deep process capability analysis, and massive
data-driven decision-making. The ideal candidate behaves like an analytical sleuth: leveraging manufacturing data trends, statistical analysis, and process validation to drive
yield optimization, eliminate waste, and deliver concrete process capability statistics back to design engineering to establish realistic manufacturing design rules.

Diversity
At Noveon Magnetics, we believe our diversity makes us who we are, and we strive every day to build a culture where everyone feels welcome.

What You'll Be Doing:
Yield Enhancement & Data Analytics

• Drive Yield Improvement:
Utilize data analytics and statistical methodologies to proactively identify process variation, pinpoint production inefficiencies, and execute
targeted yield improvement and waste reduction opportunities.

• Statistical Performance Tracking:
Analyze high-volume manufacturing data trends, SPC metrics, scrap rates, equipment downtime, cycle times, and overall yield
performance to spearhead continuous improvement initiatives.

• Lead Advanced DOE:
Direct complex Design of Experiments (DOE) activities to establish robust process windows, stabilize process robustness, and achieve
challenging process capability targets.

• Predictive Performance Modeling:
Develop predictive and preventive improvement strategies through analytical modeling and process performance evaluation.
Design Rule & Cross-Functional Alignment

• Define Manufacturing Design Rules:
Deliver precise process capability numbers and statistical performance metrics to Design Engineering to help define, refine, and
enforce realistic design rules for optimal manufacturing scaling.

•

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

Collaborate cross-functionally with Production, Quality, Supply Chain, and Operations teams to instill a culture of rigorous, data-based
decision-making across the organization.

• Root Cause Diagnostics:
Apply advanced root cause analysis methodologies (including 8D, 5 Whys, Fishbone, Pareto Analysis, and full CAPA implementation) to
diagnose sudden process disruptions or quality events.
Sustaining & Smart Manufacturing Optimization

• Quality & Regulatory Compliance:
Ensure all yield-enhancement initiatives and process changes conform to company Quality Management Systems (QMS),
supporting ongoing compliance with ISO 9001 and automotive standards.

• Support Digitization & Industry 4.0:
Support manufacturing digitization, automation, and smart factory initiatives to improve process consistency and unlock deep
operational visibility.

• Equipment Capacity Evaluation:
Evaluate manufacturing equipment performance, capacity limitations, tool utilization, and baseline process efficiency.

• Product Cost Analytics:
Conduct thorough product cost analyses including labor touch-time, machine utilization, scrap generation, cycle time, and process-related
cost drivers.

Documentation & Risk Assessment:

Update and maintain critical Process FMEAs (PFMEAs), Control Plans, and process risk assessments based on ongoing yield data analysis.
