  • Configure machines for autonomous production and active process monitoring
  • Audit automated processes to ensure consistency and prevent systematic part defects
  • Create and fine-tune CAM-generated code to optimize feed rates and speeds for maximum automated efficiency
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including production, quality, metrology, and equipment maintenance to resolve technical challenges and implement sustainable solutions
  • Define process specifications and control limits
  • utilize statistical analysis tools (e.g., JMP, Minitab) to evaluate process capabilities and drive data-driven decision-making and maintaining 6P=P from feasibility to production-readiness phases
  • Perform hands-on process trials and support qualification of new equipment, materials, and process changes to enhance production performance
  • Document and maintain process specifications, work instructions, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) to ensure knowledge retention and standardization

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Optical, Materials, or related field)
  • Minimum 5 years of experience in optical fabrication process engineering or a related manufacturing environment
  • Hands-on experience with optics fabrication techniques, including CNC machining, polishing, and surface inspection
  • Demonstrated machine operation and CNC programming experience
  • Solid Modeling Software, NX preferred
  • CAM Software, Mastercam preferred
