  My role can be broken down into two key fields: New Product Introduction (NPI) and Product Maintenance.NPI: Responsible for leading the design transfer to manufacturing of complex electro-mechanical instruments for laboratory workflow automation. • FMEA: Ownership of process FMEAs and the implementation of associated risk controls. Consulting role for design FMEAs. • Process Mapping: Development of manufacturing, QC, and service procedures and process specifications, covering everything from material handling and quality plans to finished product release and field service. • Jig/ Fixture Design: Use a systematic approach to design, build, validate and maintain manufacturing, service, inspection and quality control jigs and equipment. • ERP Setup: Design of system architecture, production BOM, and batch records to optimize the production cycle while keeping quality at the forefront. • DFMA: Participate in early-stage design reviews and provide recommendations for Design for Manufacturability (DFMA).Product Maintenance: Responsible for managing the sustaining engineering activities focused on improving and maintaining production stability for existing platforms. • Change control: Host regular Engineering Change Request (ECR) meetings for two major product lines and drive design and process change orders from assessment to implementation and closure. • Production Support: Respond to manufacturing bottlenecks as well as field feedback and obsolescence to maintain high manufacturing throughput and efficiency. • Non-conformance/ CAPAs: Support NCR investigations by applying root cause analysis techniques and implementing resulting Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPAs). • Continuous Improvement: Recommend and implement continuous improvement methods, leveraging lean manufacturing methodologies and techniques. Show less • Equipment Maintenance: Assign appropriate Preventative Maintenance (PM) programs to operational equipment via the CMMS. • SOP Writing: Ensure compliance of written procedures consistent with ISO 13485/ ISO 9001 for component incoming inspection, electro, mechanical assembly, in-process and product release testing. • Material Specification Enrichment: Translating material design and transaction characteristics into specification data for both PLM and ERP systems (SAP). • Obsolescence's: Anticipate and respond effectively to raw material obsolescence's, working closely with our quality and test engineers as well as procurement to ensure production is sustained. • Product Testing: Drafting and executing formal test plans for material obsolescence's and design changes.Supplier Quality Management: Work closely with procurement and quality teams to monitor supplier performance, ensuring quality standards are being met. Show less • Assembly and Testing: Independently perform instrument module electrical and mechanical assembly and verify the product quality performance via in-process quality checks. • Kaizen: Keep continuous improvement at the forefront, always looking to implement lean techniques and optimize workflows. • Material Handling: Developed a kanban card-based reorder system to manage fastener inventory. • Value Stream Mapping (VSM): Executed a VSM for two major product lines to identify and eliminate waste and optimize the production cycle. • Compliance: Ensure compliance of written procedures consistent with ISO 13485/ ISO 9001 for component incoming inspection, part picking, instrument assembly, and product release testing. • Cost Reduction: Identify opportunities for cost-saving without compromising quality.
