Job Description

About the company:

Our client is the pioneer of fundamental breakthroughs in modern digital microwave systems: split-mount architectures, nodal networking, hybrid TDM+Ethernet, integrated IP/MPLS, ultra-high-power RF performance, and single box Multi-Band – and the list continues to grow.

With 70+ years of experience, they have the expertise to solve your wireless infrastructure challenges. Their portfolio of design, deploy, and managed services, coupled with their leading customer support, delivers proven results where it matters most – your network.

About the Role:

The Operations Engineering team partners with design engineering to introduce microwave radio products, build prototypes, deliver technologies, and transfer product/process recipes to mass production. The Operations Engineering group is primarily responsible for developing the manufacturing assemble and test solutions for new product, to ensure that Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) are incorporated into the initial product design. This group is responsible for day-to-day operations in our contract manufacturing partners.

Your Responsibilities:

• Participate in design reviews and be responsible for DFx and Process/Product Verification Test (PVT) readiness for new products.
• Define PVT test plan, test strategy, validate new product processes at CMs for manufacturability, transfer required knowledge to (Contract Manufacturer) CMs and complete PVT closure report with Test data/FPY/Cpk/actions/suggestions for product release.
• Perform regular data reviews for released products on FPY, Cpk analysis, Control limits vs the Spec limits, Data collection, bone pile aging, etc. to identify technical issues and drive for improvement.
• Change validation and verification including HW / ATS. Own work-cell process to validate new ATS SW&HW, code review and R&R before releasing to CMs.
• Participant CITs and work closely with Design Engineering and Test engineering as well as with the factories to solve complex (electrical and electro-mechanical) sourcing and manufacturing issues, driving the end solution and corrective actions back to the point of origin, especially on yield/reliability improvement.
• Monitor and push for bone-pile reduction at CMs, assist CMs in resolving difficult technical issues.
• Support the ramp up of production capacity at CMs when releases new products from NPI.
• Support ATS maintenance and Aviat asset control for assets in CM sides.
• Support localization and 2nd source qualification.
• Work closely with supply chain and SQE on material supply to identify and resolve Vendor issues.
• Work with quality and field teams on RMA analysis, report findings / take actions with team for improvement.
• Periodic audit & report supplier technical / process capability.

Qualifications & Competencies:

• Completion of a bachelor's or master's degree in electrical or mechanical engineering.
• At least 5 years of experience in product engineering.
• Technical knowledge in high-speed digital circuits.
• Experience in analog/RF circuitry design and microwave telecom products is a big plus.
• Analytical skills in technical troubleshooting and problem-solving.
• Knowledge of Statistical Process Control.
