DFx Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Intermediate knowledge of and the ability to incorporate DFx best practices to optimize product cost, quality and manufacturing cycle time.
• Analyzes medium complex designs to ensure components and assemblies are manufacturable and produceable. Solicits input from suppliers on manufacturability and produceability improvements on designs. Participates in cross-functional teams to develop manufacturability and assembly-related BKMs.
• Evaluates and implements medium complexity cost reduction ideas to reduce part/assembly costs in the machined, sheet metal, and plastic commodities. Identifies use cases for commonly used OEM's to leverage re-use. Understands how cost apportionment drives cost reduction opportunities and priorities. Complexity - medium BTP parts, OEM's, and simple assemblies; < $500
• Intermediate knowledge of ITO principles. Identifies and implements opportunities to maximize core content, and ensure late configurability in the manufacturing sequence on medium complex modules or products. Participates in cross-functional teams to develop ITO BKMs.
• Intermediate understanding of shipping/cargo restrictions by mode of transportation, customer facilities restrictions, and proper labeling. Ensures proper crate packaging on moderately complex assemblies/modules to prevent product damage during transportation. Participates in cross functional teams to develop tools and processes that improve transportability.
