1. Program Development & Machine Optimization
• Create, modify, and optimize SMT placement programs for machines such as Pick-and-Place (P&P), Screen Printers, SPI, and AOI.
• Configure and fine-tune machine settings to improve component placement accuracy, throughput, and overall manufacturing efficiency.
2. Component & Equipment Management
• Develop and maintain component libraries for accurate identification and placement.
• Troubleshoot and resolve programming, equipment, and process-related issues to minimize downtime.
• Support equipment upgrades and ensure proper calibration and maintenance coordination.
3. Production Execution & Process Control
• Implement and monitor the production plan, ensuring adherence to SMT processes and product specifications.
• Analyze defective materials and production data to identify root causes, recommend corrective actions, and drive continuous improvement.
• Monitor KPIs such as throughput, yield, and downtime, taking proactive measures to optimize performance.
4. Collaboration & Reporting
• Work closely with engineering, design, quality, and maintenance teams to ensure smooth production flow and compliance with regulatory requirements.
• Prepare and present regular reports on production performance, issues, and progress to management.
5. Training & Development
• Assist in training and developing production staff on equipment usage, process adherence, and best practices.
• Promote a culture of safety, ensuring compliance with health, safety, and environmental regulations.
6. Projects & New Product Introduction (NPI)
• Manage and support projects related to process improvements, new technologies, and NPI.
• Create clear work instructions and documentation to support new products and process changes.
• Ensure effective resource allocation (materials, labor, and equipment) to meet production goals.
