• Own service and calibration documentation within the ERP system (SAP), including work instructions, routings, Bills of Material (BOMs), and associated drawings.
• Provide technical ownership and oversight of calibration systems, equipment, fixtures, and workflows to ensure measurement integrity, traceability, and compliance.
• Lead troubleshooting and resolution of complex service and calibration issues, including repeat failures, yield loss, and process variation.
• Drive implementation of Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) impacting service and calibration operations, ensuring effective execution and communication to stakeholders.
• Lead or facilitate structured problemsolving activities (e.g., 8D, corrective actions) and ensure sustainable corrective and preventive actions are implemented.
• Analyze service, calibration, and quality data to identify trends, determine root causes, and drive process improvements.
• Lead continuous improvement initiatives, including Lean, 5S, and Kaizen activities, to improve service efficiency, quality, and turnaround time.
• Train and mentor service technicians and junior engineers on service processes, calibration methods, and standard work.
• Collaborate with crossfunctional teams including Operations, Quality, Engineering, Supply Chain, and Metrology to drive alignment and process improvements.
