SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES:
Project Technical Leadership
Assist in problem solving and coordination of project engineering work.
Provide project support during system startup, integration and buy-off.
Actively participate in design reviews
Assist in systems’ design, development, execution planning and monitoring.
Manage project technical risk; ensuring to highlight high risk areas and create mitigation plans to reduce risk.
Conduct experiments on high-risk system elements to validate design assumptions.
Manage and monitor ‘process critical’ third party equipment vendors to ensure compliance with requirements and adherence to budget and schedule.
Conduct acceptance tests and approving ‘process critical’ third party equipment.
Subject Matter Expertise
Responsible for learning customer processes; becoming the local expert in their process, to support the design and eventually the integration of the as-built machine.
Develop and design POP (proof of principle) studies to prove high risk elements and design ideas.
Prepare systems-level design calculations including but not limited to:
Systems Accuracy
Metrology / Instrumentation
Kinematics
Reliability / Maintainability
Process Capability
Gauge Capability
Cycle-time
Machine Overall Equipment Effectiveness
Perform hands-on testing.
Requirements Definition and Verification
Prepare, and assist in compiling and document design requirements (ex. Functional Requirements Specifications)
Evaluate and document design outputs for conformance to design requirements (ex. Acceptance Test Plans)
Evaluate and document overall machine system performance (MOEE, Cycle time, Availability, Yield)
Assist in evaluating and preparing Failure Modes and Effects analyses (pFMEAs, mFMEAs, dFMEAs) as required.
Assist in evaluating and preparing machinery Safety Risk Assessments
Learn, understand and flow down customer and industry requirements to ensure overall machine compliance.
Create technical specifications to purchase and validate specialized third-party equipment (ex. Vendor Technical Specifications)
