- Provide
technical support to production teams on PCBA-related issues.

- Define
and optimize process parameters to improve yields, reduce defects, and
increase throughput.

- Participate
in New Product Introduction (NPI) activities to ensure manufacturability
and smooth ramp-up.

- Collaborate
with design, quality, and test engineering teams to address DFM (Design
for Manufacturing), DFT (Design for Test), and DFA (Design for Assembly)
concerns.

- Evaluate
and implement new tools, equipment, and technologies to improve efficiency
and reduce costs.

- Conduct




root cause analysis and implement corrective actions for process
deviations and quality issues.

- Ensure
compliance with IPC standards (e.g., IPC-A-610, IPC-J-STD-001) and other
regulatory requirements.

- Provide
training and guidance to operators and technicians.

- Participate
in continuous improvement initiatives such as Lean Manufacturing, Six
Sigma, and Kaizen.
