- Lead DOE experiments, analyze results, and implement improvements
- Perform failure analysis on weld defects (spatter, cracks, voids, weak joints) and recommend corrective actions
- Specify, qualify, and validate welding equipment and tooling in collaboration with suppliers and internal teams
- Document welding procedures and contribute to xFMEA, control plans, and SOPs
- Train operators and technicians on process understanding and machine operation
- Monitor KPIs and SPC data to ensure process stability and yield targets
- Support commissioning and scale-up activities from pilot to mass production
Prerequisites
- Minimum 5 years of industrial experience in laser and/or ultrasonic welding processes, preferably in battery manufacturing, automotive, or electronics assembly
