• 3D Silicon Lithium-ion Cell (high energy density & high capacity battery with 100% active silicon anode)
• Led the first ever scale-up from pilot line by re-tooling an existing automated manufacturing line to assemble a new product (cell)
• Performed gap analysis, capacity & layout planning, procured equipment to setup pilot line in new facility in Malaysia for 3 products
• Developed & implemented an in-house design to increase automation and eliminate line bottleneck which saved ~ $1 MM annually
• Initiated and closed 60+ JIRA tickets for CIPs to increase throughput 2X for 4 straight quarters and increase yield from 35% to 52%
• Streamlined material flow both physically & systematically in entire factory over 6 months to achieve 41% reduction in cycle time
