  • Optimized electroless plating processes to improve coating uniformity, reduce chemical consumption, and enhance overall process efficiency and product quality.
  • Conduct root cause analysis and resolve plating defects such as blistering, poor adhesion, thickness, roughness, or discoloration.
  • Perform routine analytical testing (pH, conductivity, metal concentration, etc.) and adjust chemical compositions accordingly.
  • Develop and implement standard operating procedures (SOPs) and plating process documentation.
  • Ensure compliance with environmental, health, and safety regulations related to chemical handling and waste disposal for any newly developed process.
  • Collaborate with R&D, quality control, and production teams to support new product introductions and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Specify and help maintain plating equipment, rectifiers, tanks, filters, and agitation systems.
  • Stay updated on industry best practices, new technologies, and emerging surface treatment techniques.
