** Essential Function:

The position is responsible for supporting, stabilizing, and optimizing CNC machining and automation-enabled manufacturing processes for silicon and other brittle materials. This role serves as a technical expert in CNC machining execution, equipment and automation performance, and process control, ensuring safe, capable, and repeatable operations that meet dimensional, cosmetic, and throughput requirements.

This position emphasizes hands-on troubleshooting, CNC machine and automation system support, process optimization, and sustained manufacturing performance rather than primary program development.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

Technical Leadership
· Serve as a technical resource and subject matter expert for CNC machining and associated automation systems within assigned value streams.
· Support manufacturing and process engineers by troubleshooting machining and automation-related issues and stabilizing existing CNC processes.
· Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for machining defects, equipment downtime, automation faults, scrap, and yield losses.
· Apply structured problem-solving methodologies to resolve tooling, probing, fixturing, automation interface, and equipment-related issues.
· Support development, review, and maintenance of FMEAs, control plans, standard work, and automation-related safeguards for CNC operations.

CNC and Automation Support - Process Optimization
· Set up and operate CNC machining centers, grinders, and auxiliary automated equipment (tool setters, dressers, probes, loaders, robotic interfaces, and material handling systems) as required.
· Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to CNC machines, automation systems, programs, tooling, fixtures, probing systems, and consumables.
· Support shop-floor execution through hands-on setup assistance, process verification, automation recovery, and operator support.
· Assist with commissioning, recovery, and sustained operation of CNC machining centers, grinders, and associated automation systems.
· Support process standardization, documentation, and revision control to ensure consistency across shifts and equipment.
· Partner with maintenance, manufacturing, controls, and engineering teams to address recurring equipment, automation, and process performance issues.
