The High-Speed Cable Assembly Reliability & Testing (R&T) Leader will lead a dedicated team of R&T engineers and will have responsibility for driving standardized Design for Reliability Engineering (DfRE) and Robustness Validation (RV) Methodologies for all High-Speed Cable Assembly Products in the DDN Portfolio.
Requirements
- Integrate reliability considerations during technology & product evaluation, NPI product development from receipt of Customer Spec (Mission Profile) through Product Release into mass production.
- Contribute towards requirement engineering. Understand the load requirements clearly to derive inner load and stresses.
- Drive reliability planning tailored to environmental and use conditions, integrating contingency planning and business impact.
- Analysis of test data. knowledge on data acquisition methods and system.
- Apply accelerated test models and test-to-failure strategies to determine reliability limits and identify failure modes.
- Perform the initial FIT estimation based on data from standards such as Siemens Norm SN-29500. Calculate final FIT value based on test data.
- Analyze customer requirements, application requirements and mission profile to determine the optimal validation test to evaluate reliability of DDN products.
- Lead corrective and preventive action (CAPA) processes for reliability issues across products.
- Contribute to or manage a centralized database of reliability test plans, models, and field data to promote reuse and faster decision-making.
- Present reliability status and risks to executive leadership, influencing design decisions and investment in robustness.
- Leverage on accelerated test methods to explore design margins and to enable fast selection of concepts.
- Provide guidance on sample size requirements and duration for reliability testing by utilizing reliability statistics.
- Act as a champion for reliability culture, fostering a proactive and metrics-driven mindset within cross-functional teams.
- Analyze data from those optimal validation tests to calculate reliability and identify risks or failures. Calculate MTTF based on test to failure evaluation.
- For identified risks, support definition of mitigation plans and implementation to improve reliability.
- For identified high risk failure modes and actual failures, support definition of corrective actions and their implementation to improve reliability.
- Communicate and interact with customer reliability experts to report on reliability analysis.
- Participate in design reviews and facilitate the reliability section of the design review.
- Establish a database of reliability tests, models to be re-used across projects.
