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.
