Responsibilities •Collaborate closely with customers to understand and implement upgrade requests and special design requirements, ensuring tailored solutions that meet client needs. •Conduct design reviews, prototyping, and testing to validate module functionality, reliability, and compliance with industry standards. •Communicate with vendors for part sourcing, ensuring component specifications, cost, and lead time align with project requirements to meet machine delivery deadlines. •Oversee the production of machines, ensuring a smooth and efficient assembly process on the production line. Perform mechanical verification and validation of each unit to ensure compliance with design standards and customer specifications. •Prepare Bill of Materials (BOM) for new and repeated order machine builds. Achievement •Pioneered the company’s first Multi-Row Tape and Reel module series, featuring adjustable configurations to accommodate various carrier tape size and custom carrier tapes with multiple pocket rows. Implemented x-axis movement mechanism to enable precise multi-row unit placement. Significantly reduced the cost for conversion kit, reduced downtime between switching out full reel by 66%. •Achieved a 5% reduction in an average module cost by optimizing motor selection, transitioning to a smaller, energy-efficient index motor, and a 30% reduction in module’s angular footprint by maximizing the use of existing module footprint, enabling additional module integration within the rotary system layout.
