Responsibilities

-

-During specification and preliminary design phases:

-Bring ideas to the Process Engineer or the PIM to guide product definition in order to improve the product manufacturability and achieve QCD targets.

-Participate to the product design reviews when required.

-Estimate Method Time using MTM

-

-During detailed design phase and before Serial Go:

-Participate to P-FMEA.
