• Create,approveandmaintainoven recipes; verify conveyor speed, zonesettingsand nitrogen settings where applicable.

• Perform periodic oven performance verification, re-profile after defined changes, andretainprofile evidence and recipe revisions.
• Maintain component, package, feeder and nozzle libraries; update pick-and-place programs and optimize placement sequence, head utilization and cycle time without compromising process controls.
• Support solder paste storage verification, thaw/use-life controls and required sign-off; follow approved material handling and traceability processes.
• Support first article/first-off approval activities, process capability studies, defect pareto analysis and corrective actions as part of the cross-functional team.
• Support Nexim or successor manufacturing systems, barcode/serialization, route validation and production data integrity.
• Investigate and correct SMT quality issues and perform other related duties as required.

QUALITY, SAFETY & COMPLIANCE

• Applythe current company- and customer-approved revisions of IPC-A-610 acceptance criteria and J-STD-001 soldered assembly requirements, as applicable to the product class and work scope.
