Key responsibilities include:
- Owning a portion or all of the manufacturing value chain for a certain product or set of products
- Developing novel tooling solutions for fabrication and assembly of structural parts
- Developing process flows, breaking down large, complex assemblies into logical part flows of subassemblies and sub-processes
- Writing documentation required for successfully manufacturing hardware at scale, such as work instructions, quality plans, and inspection requirements
- Working with contract manufacturers across various disciplines (PCBA fab, metallic manufacturing, assembly, etc.) to develop repeatable, sustained processes for quick-turn development and at-scale production
- Working hands-on with technicians and other engineers to build prototype hardware
- Contributing to end-customer hardware mechanical or electrical design, including interconnects, board fabrication, and inspection
