MGR II QLTY & RELIABILITY ENGINEERING

Job Overview

Oversees all quality and reliability activities and staff for all products or product lines; manages a team of quality and reliability engineers, technicians, and first-line supervisors.

Job Requirements

• ENGINEERS ON POWER PRODUCTS R&T TEAM WILL HAVE FOLLOWING RESPONSIBILITIES:
   Integrate reliability considerations during technology & product evaluation, NPI product
  development from receipt of Customer Spec (Mission Profile) through Product Release into
  mass production.
   Contribute towards requirement engineering. Understand the load requirements clearly to
  derive inner load and stresses.
   Drive reliability planning tailored to environmental and use conditions, integrating contingency
  planning and business impact.
   Analysis of test data. knowledge on data acquisition methods and system.
   Apply accelerated test models and test-to-failure strategies to determine reliability limits and
  identify failure modes.
   Perform the initial FIT estimation based on data from standards such as Siemens Norm SN-
  29500. Calculate final FIT value based on test data.
   Analyze customer requirements, application requirements and mission profile to determine the
  optimal validation test to evaluate reliability of DDN products.
   Lead corrective and preventive action (CAPA) processes for reliability issues across products.
   Contribute to or manage a centralized database of reliability test plans, models, and field data to
  promote reuse and faster decision-making.
   Present reliability status and risks to executive leadership, influencing design decisions and
  investment in robustness.
   Leverage on accelerated test methods to explore design margins and to enable fast selection of
  concepts.
   Provide guidance on sample size requirements and duration for reliability testing by utilizing
  reliability statistics.
   Act as a champion for reliability culture, fostering a proactive and metrics-driven mindset within
  cross-functional teams.
   Analyze data from those optimal validation tests to calculate reliability and identify risks or
  failures. Calculate MTTF based on test to failure evaluation.
   For identified risks, support definition of mitigation plans and implementation to improve
  reliability.
   For identified high risk failure modes and actual failures, support definition of corrective actions
  and their implementation to improve reliability.
   Communicate and interact with customer reliability experts to report on reliability analysis.
   Participate in design reviews and facilitate the reliability section of the design review.
   Establish a database of reliability tests, models to be re-used across projects.
