Job Duties
The Production Test Technician (PTT) will be responsible for complete end to end Robot and Accessory testing from bring-up through final test. The end to end test process will include system level and component level testing. The PTE will work closely with Manufacturing Engineering and Production Management to ensure Robot/Accessory throughput meets demand plan requirements.
The PTT will engage with Robotics Engineering teams (quality assurance, robotics, HW/SW engineering) to enhance, or improve automation, as well as drive other continuous improvement activities aimed at developing the required test rigor and robust component calibration steps to ensure quality Robots/Accessories are delivered to our end customers.
Responsibilities
● Perform end to end testing on production level and new production introduction Robots/Accessories.
● Manage root-cause/diagnostics and recovery of Robot/Accessory fall-out (WIP).
● Drive corrective action whether process, material, workmanship, or design with cross
functional teams.
● Document detailed de-bug reports / cookbooks for training / diagnostics guide.
● Drive continuous improvement activities using lean manufacturing concepts (value stream map/ efficiency metrics).
● Additionally, the candidate will work to refine the hardware testing process to better meet the needs of the hardware engineering phases (EVT/DVT/PVT) of projects and contribute to the NPI pipeline by improving quality metrics.
● Assist manufacturing and engineering by conducting root cause / corrective action analysis as required and driving corrective action.
● Assist Manufacturing Engineering & Quality Control with the collection, preparation, analysis & go forward strategy based on test parameters, test fall-out, or overall enhancements/improvements to the current test process or architecture.
● Assist and lead in Lean continuous improvement activities.
● Ensure manufacturing area is kept tidy (5S).
● Other duties as prescribed by manager.
