Documentation: Create, maintain, and update Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), assembly routers, and testing protocols. Continuous Improvement: Identify and implement practical solutions to improve floor safety, reduce cycle times, and boost overall product yield. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Serve as the primary technical point of contact across production operators, quality personnel, leadership, and customer technical teams.

Working hours: 7:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Skills:

Testing Systems: Hands-on experience with Dynalab wire harness electrical testing equipment and programming.

Fixture Fabrication: Familiarity with designing and assembling mating adapters and functional test fixtures.

Bachelors

Experience:

4-7 years

Qualifications:

CAD Proficiency: Experience using 2D CAD software to design manufacturing drawings, wire harness board layouts, and assembly aids.

Blueprint & Schematic Literacy: Demonstrated ability to read and interpret complex wiring diagrams, electrical schematics, and BOM structures.

Practical Problem Solving: Proven analytical and troubleshooting capabilities in an active manufacturing environment.

Technical Communication: Ability to convey technical specifications and process instructions clearly to floor technicians, peers, and clients.
