Job Summary:
The Quality Engineer for SMT/MI is responsible for ensuring the highest quality standards are met throughout the Surface Mount Technology (SMT) & Manual Insertion (MI) assembly process in an Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) workplace. This role involves developing, implementing, and maintaining quality control procedures,
conducting inspections, analyzing data, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to identify root causes of defects and drive continuous improvement in SMT/MI production.
Key Responsibilities:
Quality System Development & Implementation:
Develop, implement, and maintain quality control plans, procedures,
and work instructions specifically for SMT/MI processes (e.g., solder paste printing, component placement, reflow soldering, AOI, SPI).
Ensure adherence to industry standards (e.g., IPC-A-610, IPC- 7711/7721), customer specifications, and internal quality policies.
Establish and monitor key quality metrics (e.g., First Pass Yield, Defect Per Million Opportunities - DPMO, Cost of Poor Quality related to SMT/MI).




Process Monitoring & Control:
Conduct regular audits and inspections of SMT/MI production lines, processes, and equipment to ensure compliance with quality standards and procedures.
Monitor and analyze SMT/MI process parameters (e.g., reflow profiles, paste volume, placement accuracy)to ensure optimalquality output.
Utilize and interpretdata from AutomatedOptical Inspection (AOI),
Solder Paste Inspection (SPI), and X-rayinspection systems to identify trends and potential issues.
Implement statistical process control (SPC)techniques for criticalSMT parameters.
Defect Analysis & Root Cause Investigation:
Lead or participate in the investigation of SMT/MI-related defects,failures, and customer returns.

Conduct root cause analysisusing methodologies such as 5 Whys, Fishbone diagrams, 8D reports, etc.
Work closely with SMT/MI Production, Process Engineering, and Design teams to implement effective corrective and preve
