The Manufacturing Electrical Engineer II designs, develops and maintains manufacturing processes, electrical test systems and production support solutions for new products and product changes. Drives cost reduction and waste elimination across supply, assembly and test. Supports Manufacturing by resolving production issues, troubleshooting electrical and electromechanical systems down to the board level, dispositioning nonconforming material and supporting continuous improvement activities with Product Development to ensure manufacturability and testability of new products and achieve cost targets through lean methods.

Supports resolution of product complaints, CAPA activities and safety issues while providing sustaining engineering support for released products.

• Liaise with R&D, production, supply chain and quality to keep production rates, product designs and manufacturing test strategies aligned with business needs and available manufacturing resources.
• Support new products through pilot production and sustained launch activities, identify, elevate and help resolve manufacturability and testability issues.
• Design, document, validate, and introduce production, service assembly, test fixtures, electrical test systems, automated test equipment, and supporting equipment.
• Configure assembly processes, activity sequence and material handling for lean manufacturing. Develop and optimize manufacturing test processes and data collection methods.
• Support supplier and vendor qualification activities for manufacturing processes, tooling fixtures and test equipment as required.
• Run tests , using new or existing protocols , to confirm process capability and manufacturing test effectiveness.
• Maintain complete, accurate , and timely manufacturing documentation: including assembly procedures, testing methods, electrical test specifications, troubleshooting guides, packaging instructions, labeling instructions, and bill of materials.
• Develop test plans covering material acquisition, substitution problems , and shipment-impacting technical issues. Develop and validate functional, system-level and end-of-line electrical test methods.
• Support manufacturing planning activities including BOM structure, methods, sequence of operations, shop routing, time standards, tooling and electrical test requirements.
• Continually reduce product cost through design, process, procedure and test improvements while improving efficiency through lean manufacturing methods.
• Optimize manufacturing costs, determine time standards and recommend tooling and process requirements for new or existing product lines.
• Work with production managers and engineers to support product enhancements from concept through finished product. Participate in Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Testability (DFT) activities.
• Participate in material review board activities to analyze and disposition non-conforming materials and assemblies, including electrical and electromechanical components.
• Participate in cost reduction, capacity enhancement, and manufacturing test improvement initiatives.
• Provide sustaining engineering support to production. Train and support production staff - including Assemblers, Quality Control Inspectors, Leads and Supervisors. Support electrical troubleshooting and manufacturing test systems used in production.
