- Manage manufacturing process to eliminate the failure risk (manufacturing, quality, delivery, capacity, cost issue etc.), quickly resolve issues (if any) and ensure stable production with enough capacity, drive CM to deliver qualified products on time at competitive cost. - New project development, work with cross functional team to develop & execute the new product at Contract Manufacturer. As a project leader, need to work with US team & CM/vendor team closely (factories in both China and Malaysia) to drive the whole project schedule and develop it at CMs as target schedule. - Execute the product development with process flow and manage the project milestones in different phases (P build, EP build, PP build and mass production). - Work as a Mechanical leader as well to drive CM/vendor to develop the ME parts, collaborate with functional team (Quality, Tooling, ID) to qualify the ME parts, review the inspection report, sign the golden samples for manufacturing at CM. - Collaborate with cross functional team to drive CM to qualify the production line for product assembling, which includes the line layout review, production line capacity (UPH)design, also drive CM to work in dynamic with 2 shifts production to fulfill the peak-season demands. - Collaborate with cross functional team to develop and qualify the test station, tooling, assembling fixtures/machine in production, review the testing & tooling capacity with buffer to make sure it will hit the target of UPH. - Lead the yield rate report review in different project development phases, drive CM to fix the failures in engineering build and make the yield rate higher than target (with FMEA analysis, 8D reporting). - Take the lead to resolve the issues/production failures (e.g. with 8D report), will communicate with cross functional team to work out some solutions, including short term and long term. - Work with different functional team and CM/vendor to get/collect some cost reduction ideas.
