We are seeking a DFx Engineer to optimize product cost, quality, and manufacturing cycle time, with responsibilities including analyzing designs, soliciting input from suppliers, and participating in cross-functional teams. The ideal candidate will have intermediate knowledge of DFx best practices, ITO principles, and shipping/cargo restrictions, and experience with day-to-day operations, standards, and policies of a semiconductor equipment manufacturing plant or facility.
Requirements
- Intermediate knowledge of and the ability to incorporate DFx best practices to optimize product cost, quality, and manufacturing cycle time.
- Analyzes medium complex designs to ensure components and assemblies are manufacturable and produceable.
- Solicits input from suppliers on manufacturability and produceability improvements on designs.
- Participates in cross-functional teams to develop manufacturability and assembly-related BKMs.
- Evaluates and implements medium complexity cost reduction ideas to reduce part/assembly costs in the machined, sheet metal, and plastic commodities.
- Identifies use cases for commonly used OEM's to leverage re-use.
- Understands how cost apportionment drives cost reduction opportunities and priorities.
- Intermediate knowledge of ITO principles.
- Identifies and implements opportunities to maximize core content, and ensure late configurability in the manufacturing sequence on medium complex modules or products.
- Participates in cross-functional teams to develop ITO BKMs.
- Intermediate understanding of shipping/cargo restrictions by mode of transportation, customer facilities restrictions, and proper labeling.
- Ensures proper crate packaging on moderately complex assemblies/modules to prevent product damage during transportation.
- Participates in cross functional teams to develop tools and processes that improve transportability.
- Performs virtual review of moderately complex assembly/module 3D models and review of initial physical builds to identify and eliminate aesthetic issues.
- Participates in cross functional teams on the development of aesthetics-related BKM's.
- Leverages lessons learned from like products to ensure aesthetic consistency.
- Participates in design reviews, providing intermediate level of DFX input focused on manufacturability, produceability, cost, assembly, transportability, and aesthetics.
- Participate in PLC DFX workshop to align on scope for DFX review.
- Participates in cross functional teams to develop BKM's in the DMU and DFX workshop processes and tools.
- Intermediate knowledge of and experience with the day-to-day operations, standards, and policies of a semiconductor equipment manufacturing plant or facility.
