About the Job

Requirements

  • Demonstrated expertise in one or more core competencies.
  • Strong oral and written communication skills.
  • Strong presentation skills.
  • Professional technical-writing skills, including process-validation protocols and technical reports.
  • Professional problem-solving skills and a drive to improve processes and develop new ideas.
  • Ability to work independently and proactively.
  • Strong knowledge of engineering concepts, tools, and processes.
  • Strong mentoring and people-development skills.
  • Proficiency with PC applications, including office and engineering software.
  • Ability to independently analyze and correct product and process issues using sound judgment.
  • Strong analytical skills.
  • English reading and writing proficiency.
  • At least 3 years of work experience in CNC machining.
  • Familiarity with GD&T standards and the complete NPI process from prototype through mass production.
  • College degree or above, majoring in mechanical technology, material processing, or a related discipline.
  • Knowledge of ISO 13485 quality systems and their application.

Responsibilities

  • Review 2D drawings and 3D models during new-product R&D and provide DFM optimization recommendations from a CNC precision-machining perspective; assess structural feasibility, dimensional tolerances, surface-finish requirements, and material machinability; identify manufacturing risks and prepare formal process-feasibility reports.
  • Design process plans, select tools, and optimize cutting parameters for 5-axis milling, mill-turn, Swiss turning, 5-axis grinding, ID/OD grinding, wire EDM, turning, and gun-drilling equipment.
  • Perform CAM programming and machining simulation using UG/NX, Esprit, or Mastercam; support prototype trials and first-piece validation; resolve trial-stage issues including dimensional deviations, machining deformation, surface-roughness defects, and burrs.
  • Organize multiple rounds of trial-production verification, collect and analyze machining-process data, identify process fluctuations and yield bottlenecks, compile complete process documentation including work instructions and SOPs, and ensure smooth design and process transfer.
  • Design and select specialized CNC tooling and fixtures based on product geometry and precision requirements; follow fixture machining, assembly, and on-site debugging and verification; optimize clamping and positioning methods to reduce deformation and improve consistency and production efficiency for high-precision medical-device components.
  • Work with the quality team on equipment IQ/OQ/PQ verification and production-process validation; define critical process parameters (CPPs) and critical quality attributes (CQAs) for core machining processes; ensure process documents, changes, and production operations comply with ISO 13485 requirements.
  • Collaborate with R&D, quality, production, and purchasing teams to resolve manufacturing technical issues in new-product development; use A3, 8D, and other quality-analysis tools to investigate defects and process abnormalities; develop and maintain a CNC process database covering medical-material cutting parameters, standard tooling plans, and typical problem solutions; drive process cost reduction, cycle-time optimization, and yield improvement.
  • Provide process training to production teams after new products transfer to mass production; track and resolve early production abnormalities, stabilize the process window, and support production ramp-up and capacity stabilization.
  • Analyze problems and identify and provide effective solutions.
  • Comply with all GMP standards.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience machining stainless steel, titanium alloys, medical-grade plastics, and PEEK.
  • Experience in the medical-device industry.
