- proving out new and existing repairs and processes using sound methods (e.g. scientific method, design of experiments, six sigma tools, project management tools)
- analyzing data (e.g. from experiments, processes, field performance, extended test performance) to determine most effective actions to take for improvement
- improving current processes based on agreed priorities or data analysis
- maintaining Refurb production equipment (e.g. reflow and software buffing equipment) and implementing calibration/preventive maintenance schedules
MAJOR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES include the following; other duties may be assigned as necessary, depending on business needs of this position.
