What you will be expected to do:

• Conduct line balancing and station cycle time studies for each model to assess hourly output efficiency, and provide reports and recommendations to management.
  
• Review defective smartphones on the production floor and recommend actions to reduce in-line product defect rates.
  
• Enhance assembly line productivity by developing procedures and work instructions that eliminate inefficiencies.
  
• Partner with the Quality team to identify product quality concerns and work with suppliers on feedback and corrective action plans.
  
• Coordinate and monitor First Article Inspections (FAI) to ensure equipment, personnel, and processes are ready before production begins.
  
• Assist with the New Product Introduction (NPI) process by coordinating activities across assembly functions and preparing production operators for new model/SKU launches.
  
• Work closely with the Process Engineer to develop, document, review, improve, and maintain compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), assembly work instructions, work methods, and other operational procedures, including line shutdown processes.
  
• Facilitate training for production operators on work methods, SOPs, and Process Work Instructions (PWIs).
  
• Prepare reports, including NPI reports, line efficiency reports, root cause investigation reports, and production incident reports.
  
• Develop and maintain smartphone troubleshooting and repair documentation to build a knowledge base for defect investigation, troubleshooting, and repair processes.
  
• Contribute to production process optimization, process improvements, and production layout planning.
