Descripción y detalle de las actividades

Essential duties and responsibilities

  • Support new product tooling initiatives, tool changes, mold design, sourcing, and improvements to existing molds, focusing on manufacturability, cost reduction, quality, yield, and cycle time.
  • Collaborate with Product Development, Manufacturing, Quality, Maintenance, Metrology/CT Scanning, and external suppliers to deliver tooling solutions and resolve technical issues.
  • Lead tooling and molding projects, managing timelines, milestones, budgets, and SMART goals to ensure on-time completion.
  • Lead tooling design reviews, develop tooling FMEAs, identify risks, and implement documented mitigation actions.
  • Support phased validation of multi-cavity molds, including single-cavity activation and CT-scan dimensional confirmation before full-cavity release.
  • Own CAPA activities from initiation through closure, including supplier corrective actions.
  • Apply SPC, DOE, Six Sigma, IQ/OQ/PQ, Gage R&R, normality testing, and Ppk/Cpk capability analysis, using Minitab or similar statistical tools.
  • Perform dimensional verification and print-to-model-to-part alignment using 3D scanning, metrology software (e.g., ZEISS INSPECT), and CT scanning.
  • Develop tooling procedures and standard work instructions.
  • Independently lead cross-functional teams, address technical challenges, and drive measurable improvements in cycle time, first-pass yield, quality, and cost.
  • Maintain project trackers and provide proactive weekly status updates without manager follow-up.
  • Communicate technical progress, results, and reports in English to cross-site and global stakeholders.
