苹果Manufacturing Design Engineer, CNC

Amazon Lab126 is an inventive research and development company that designs and engineers high-profile consumer electronics. Lab126 began in 2004 as a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., originally creating the best-selling Kindle family of products. Since then, we have produced groundbreaking devices like Fire tablets, Fire TV and Amazon Echo. What will you help us create? The Role: As a Senior Tooling Engineer, you will be responsible for driving the design, fabrication, and validation of tooling for product development. You will work with Product Design, Mechanical Process Engineers, and Supply Chain Management to identify supply base vendors and fabrication technologies. You will be responsible for creating tooling designs to deliver consumer products with demanding fit and finish requirements. You will develop, investigate, and implement industry best practices in tool design and construction. You will be required to validate a wide range of materials and processes including plastic molding, metal part fabrication, and decorative processes. In this role, you will: - Collaborate with Product Design, Industrial Design, and Mechanical Process Engineering teams to support product development - Collaborate with Lab126 suppliers to design and fabricate world-class tooling - Manage tool design, fabrication, and validation at the supply base - Drive analytical modeling and analysis of tooling concepts and design through "Mold Flow" and similar software - Have excellent oral and written communication skills including effective presentation of complex data - Support the design, manufacture, and coordinate the procurement of dimensional and functional jigs / fixtures for tooling validation - Develop the Lab126 supply base to utilize new materials and fabrication techniques for injection molding - Be required to mentor and develop junior engineers as necessary - Identify technical risks and define mitigation plan - Travel domestically and internationally to supplier sites as projects require

Apply your Mechanical Engineering experience and work multi-functionally with Product Design Engineering and Industrial Design to assess product features for manufacturability, and recommend capable production processes and equipment. With multiple material machining experience, have expertise in CNC process development, assess CNC machining process flow, review CNC fixture design DFM and drive improvement, utilize proper datum to minimize tolerance stack-up, scope machining program to improve process capability and optimize c/t, develop advanced cutters with proper coating for some special use such like high shinny surface, fine texture surface, minimize burrs by cutter improvement. Lead the machine calibration criteria setup and implementation, figure out how to recover the machine accuracy by maintenance and or retrofit, down-select machine base on machine capability and process requirement, work with vendor to develop brand-new equipment from RFQ to machine validation, finally qualify machine and implementation to fulfill process requirement. Working with suppliers to define and refine mechanical tool and fixtures, which can secure the dimension and cosmetic requirement, establish process capability and readiness. Lead the c/t reduction in the NPI stage to hit the MP target. Review/define vendor’s in process control spec base on downstream process and 2D drawing requirement, define part tolerance and specifications by demonstrating process capability to Product Designers and Industrial Designers. Identify, research, develop, and qualify premier equipment manufacturers and suppliers to develop sophisticated equipment for special process use and fulfill supply chain requirement. Provide leadership at manufacturing sites during development and product production ramp. Coordination of activities and direction through clear communication between Asia and US-based teams, and vendors is a necessity. Work closely with Manufacture Design Engineers in the development of above said processes. Work with Global Supply Managers to assess facility, floor layout, provide engineering support to secure deliver material to downstream CM vendor on time and on cost. Work with Manufacture Quality Engineers to drive yield improvement through SPC, Pareto data review to take activities accordingly.

• Develop and Manage Supplier Quality Systems: Establish and maintain comprehensive quality control plans, inspection methodologies, documentation (QMS, IQC/IPQC/OQC), and measurement system validations (MSA, GR&R, FAI/CpK) from development through mass production. • Lead Proactive Risk Mitigation: Conduct supplier process and product audits to identify potential risks. Implement preventive measures, training programs, and align specifications (MSOP, limit samples for cosmetic and color standards) to prevent defects. • Drive Root Cause Analysis and Correction: Lead meticulous problem-solving for quality issues using 8D, 5Whys, and DOE to find root causes and implement effective, validated corrective and preventive actions. • Oversee Product Reliability and Validation: Handle Ongoing Reliability Testing (ORT), supervise failure analysis, and validate key assembly processes to ensure long-term product performance and quality. • Prevent Defect Leakage: Implement and lead Out-of-Box Audit (OBA) processes at suppliers to catch cosmetic and functional issues before products are shipped to the factory (FATP). • Facilitate Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as the primary quality liaison between suppliers and internal teams (e.g., FATP team, engineering team) to drive improvements and ensure a smooth new product introduction (NPI) and mass production (MP) process. • Monitor and Communicate Quality Performance: Track key quality metrics, run major issue lists (MIL), and provide regular yield summary updates to stakeholders on supplier performance and improvement initiatives. • Develop and implement supplier training programs: Create operator training plans and production line qualification plans.
