The PCBA Process Engineer II - NPI provides manufacturing engineering support and technical leadership for new product introduction and early production of printed circuit board assemblies.
Compensation
Base Pay Range: $100,068 - $121,383
Responsibilities
Serve as the primary PCBA process engineering interface for new product introduction activities from early product development through engineering builds, production release, and initial manufacturing ramp.
Partner with product design engineers early in the development cycle to review PCBA designs for manufacturability, process capability, yield risk, assembly complexity, and compatibility with existing manufacturing equipment and processes.
Provide clear, actionable recommendations concerning component selection and placement, PCB layout, solderability, assembly clearances, panelization, tooling, inspection, test access, depanelization, and other manufacturing considerations.
Develop, maintain, and continuously improve PCBA Design for Manufacturability (DFM) guidelines that reflect current manufacturing capabilities, process knowledge, lessons learned, equipment constraints, component technologies, and industry best practices.
Train electrical, mechanical, PCB layout, and other product development personnel on PCBA manufacturing processes, DFM guidelines, manufacturing capabilities, and design practices that improve producibility.
