Responsible for managing Cold Chamber HPDC production operations, ensuring achievement of production targets, quality, productivity, rejection control, machine utilization and secure manufacturing practices.

Key Roles & Responsibilities

- Handle end-to-end Cold Chamber High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC) production operations for automotive aluminium components.
- Operate/manage cold chamber die-casting machines and ensure achievement of daily and monthly production targets.
- Strong knowledge of HPDC process parameters such as injection pressure, shot velocity, intensification pressure, die temperature, metal temperature, filling time and cycle time.
- Monitor and optimize melting, holding, ladling, die casting, trimming and finishing processes.
- Responsible for machine setting, die setting/changeover and process parameter optimization.
- Troubleshoot common die-casting defects such as porosity, cold shut, misrun, flash, shrinkage, cracks, blisters and dimensional variation.
- Conduct root-cause analysis and implement corrective/preventive actions to reduce rejection and rework.
- Improve OEE, productivity, cycle time, machine utilization and yield.
- Monitor production KPIs including rejection %, downtime, PPM, productivity and OEE.




- Coordinate with Quality, Maintenance, Tool Room, PPC and Engineering teams for smooth production.
- Ensure preventive maintenance coordination for HPDC machines, furnaces, dies and auxiliary equipment.
- Monitor die life and coordinate with Tool Room for die maintenance and corrective actions.
- Ensure adherence to SOPs, Control Plans, PFMEA, work instructions and process parameters.
- Drive continuous improvement through Kaizen, 5S, Poka-Yoke, TPM and Lean Manufacturing initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with IATF 16949, ISO and EHS/safety requirements.
- Manage operators and technicians, including shift allocation, training and performance monitoring.
