We are looking for people who are keen to try something new:
• Responsible for design and characterization of prototype equipment and pilot processes in support of manufacturing scale-up
• Collaborates with internal and external design partners to understand overall design choices, assembly and calibration procedures of optomechanical components in order to support transfer of knowledge to manufacturing facilities
• Collaborates with the internal and external design teams to incorporate hardware and software elements that ensure system performance and reliability in non-clinical settings (creating consumer-grade medical devices)
• Oversees the development of production and process control information, prepares technical analysis, recommends manufacturing methods and processes required to meet design objectives on new or improved products and/or processes
• Leads cost reduction efforts based on potential design and manufacturing process improvements
• Leads tooling and material selection for new products (selection of preferred hard tooling techniques based on volume and performance targets)
• Supports root cause investigations of field failures
• Drives Design for Manufacturing/Assembly (DFM/A) activities and process specification definition throughout product development lifecycle.
• Partners with leaders and engineers to ensure that reliability components are appropriately accounted for and documented based on requirements
