• Collaborate with engineering, quality, and NPI teams to qualify new molds, materials, and process windows; support design-for-manufacturability improvements.

• Able to meet physical requirements of the role (stand for shifts, lift up to 35 lb, perform repetitive fine motor tasks) and legally authorized to work.

• Experience with injection molding, transfer molding, silicone or epoxy potting, or encapsulation specific to electronic assemblies.
• Formal training or certifications such as IPC-A-610, J-STD-001, Six Sigma Yellow/Green Belt, or mold technician coursework.
• Hands-on experience with PLC/HMI-controlled molding equipment, automated dosing systems, or vision inspection integration.
