Original job description

Job Overview:

The Staff Process Engineer serves as a technical leader responsible for the development, optimization, and long-term strategic direction of manufacturing processes for multi-layer capacitor devices. This role provides advanced engineering expertise to improve process capability, product quality, throughput, cost performance, and operational reliability. The Staff Process Engineer leads complex process improvement initiatives, supports new technology implementation, mentors junior engineers, and collaborates across Engineering, Quality, Operations, and Maintenance to drive world-class manufacturing performance.

Duties & Responsibilities:

Serve as the technical owner and subject matter expert for assigned manufacturing processes and equipment.
Lead the development, optimization, and control of manufacturing processes to improve yield, throughput, quality, and cost performance.
Drive complex process improvement projects utilizing statistical analysis, DOE, Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and other problem-solving methodologies.
Identify and implement opportunities for automation, process standardization, waste reduction, and productivity improvement.
Lead root cause investigations for chronic manufacturing issues, customer complaints, quality escapes, and process deviations.
Analyze process capability and manufacturing performance data to establish improvement roadmaps and support strategic business objectives.
Develop, qualify, and scale new manufacturing technologies, materials, processes, and equipment from concept through production implementation.
Lead equipment evaluations, capital project justifications, installation activities, process validation, and production ramp-up efforts.
Provide technical leadership during new product introduction (NPI), ensuring robust manufacturing readiness and successful transfer to production.
Collaborate with Front End Engineering, Back End Engineering, Quality, Maintenance, Supply Chain, and Operations teams to resolve complex manufacturing challenges.
Establish process control strategies, key performance indicators (KPIs), and monitoring systems to ensure sustainable process performance.
Author and approve technical documentation, including process specifications, SOPs, work instructions, control plans, FMEAs, validation protocols, and engineering reports.
Support and lead risk assessments, corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), and continuous improvement initiatives.
Participate in Daily Management (DM) meetings, production reviews, and leadership discussions, providing technical direction and escalation support.
Design and optimize manufacturing layouts, material flow, and production workflows to support business growth and operational efficiency.
Support supplier qualification activities and collaborate with vendors on equipment and process improvements.
Ensure compliance with safety, environmental, quality, and regulatory requirements.
Perform other duties as assigned in support of departmental and organizational objectives..

Qualifications & Skills:
