Primary Planning and Start Up Responsibilities Commission and validate functional test equipment, PLC controlled stations, and supporting instrumentation as new lines come online; debug issues end to end (electrical, software, fixtures, sensors, I/O). Partner with Controls and Test Engineering to install, bring up, and optimize equipment for start up readiness; document changes and results. Train operators and technical staff on safe operation, basic troubleshooting, and escalation paths. Primary Ongoing Production Responsibilities Respond on the floor to equipment/test failures; perform root cause analysis, contain issues, and restore operation quickly. Execute minor PLC/HMI adjustments under engineering guidance; maintain configurations, backups, and change logs. Monitor test station performance, yields, and false fail rates; surface trends and propose countermeasures. Implement hardware/software improvements that enhance safety, throughput, test coverage, and reliability (e.g., sensor upgrades, fixture refinements, vision checks). Develop and refine PM, calibration, and verification procedures; keep stations audit ready with clear documentation and labeling. Collaborate with cross functional partners on line layout, error proofing, and standardized work improvements.
