Lead- Metallurgy & Metrology

You’ll be our: NPQ Lead - Metallurgy & Metrology

You’ll be based at: IBC, Bangalore

You’ll be Aligned with: Lead - New Product Quality

You’ll be a member of: New Product Quality

What you’ll do at Ather:

● Establish Metrology and Metallurgy labs

● Lead & Manage Metrology and Metallurgy labs function to have faster and accurate test data.

● Establish measurement method for components, even in absence of drawings or process

● Develop first principles based measurement method for components and plan for continuous improvement of measurement technology

● Responsible for approval of material, Process, Heat treatment of parts and surface modification techniques based on application

● Work on application engineering of the part with right selection of Material and process to make the part without compromising on fit, form or function during the development stage.

● Establish COP for material conformance and actively participate in raw material / special process supplier audit / finalisation.

● Provide Technical support for root cause analysis by failure analysis using a methodological approach

● Lead RCA on field failures and implement containment & corrective actions by developing design guidelines, standards and specifications. ● Lead and drive periodic DFMEA reviews. Demonstrate focus on pro-active screening of defects and timely implementation of control mechanisms to reduce RPN.

● Review and approve standards, specifications and robust process controls associated with Material technology during manufacturing of parts

● Review of engineering sample materials per specifications during development

● Provide technical expertise for material analysis of parts by using facilities hands on or using facilities available at alternate sources.

● Interpret test results, write reports, and effectively communicate with other engineers.

● Provide technical inputs to Value Engineering and Value Addition projects

● Coordinate with staff members and resolve all technical problems of manufacturing and design unit related to Metallurgy and Materials
