2009 June Till date - Sr Engineer (DFM)

Key Responsibilities

Primary Role in DFx Management

Preparation of DFx Quote with minimum inputs by considering design

criticality and different Process stages.

. DFA Activities using Valor tool based on manufacturing

experience for reducing potential risk /Cost Reduction.

. Organizing Review with internal process team to give the

current Manufacturing feedbacks also to customer.

. Global Review with customer to make improvements in Design

input files based on the shared DFx report.

. Clarifications with different PCB fabricator to reduce the

risk in Bare board.

. Set up an ERF files Based on the different parameters,updation of rule file based on new Risk in

Manufacturing, IPC Standard and based on the feedback from PCB

Supplier for the new capabilities.

. Huge Valor Part library management and its control.

. Managing all DFx Activities in different modules at different

stations.

. Follow up for the DFM NRE PO related activities to bring it

to closure.

. Manage all Activities including multiple projects within the

schedule,support for the Installation of Valor tool

and involvement to resolve the different tool errors with

immediate effect.

. Single point contact to customer for all DFx Activity to

share the report and its clarifications.

. Support to Component Engineering Team .

. DFM Presentation for the NPI Engineers / Production Engineers

to share the importance of DFM Activities.

Achievements

. Verified More than 400+ Boards through valor tool by reducing

potential risk in Manufacturing with 100%

ICT coverage.

. It helps transition of new products and processes into volume

smoothly.

. Developed and maintaining a huge Valor part Library for DFA

Analysis.

. In addition to the General DFM Guideline, Developed / Customized

different DFM Rule file based on minimum manufacturing capability

requirement in Reflow, wave,X-ray,PCB singulation, Process Set up

and FPT .Thus could reduced the potential Risks in different

Manufacturing Areas, Reduced handsoldering,Reworks,Improved the

board quality, reliability, reduced the process cycle time and

fixture rework .

. Initiate to develop Selective Soldering checks through Valor

for different palette thickness and also for the

Selective soldering Machine. By developed this constraints

and test method,reduced many handsoldering components

and handtouch up the different solder joints .Developed the

palette selection also through this

tool.

. Developed the DFT rule file based on the minimum requirement

of Test nodes and fixture fabricator

capability Requirement, this test included the test point

check based on the component height to consider the

milling areas in fixture.

. Setup different Parameters and Variable (more than 2000) for

proper working of Valor Tool.

. Recovered the tool cost within 2 years through the NRE DFM

PO.

. Developed many automation method in Valor tool for the Rapid

DFx work within the limited time.

. Manage all DFx Activities with single license by using proper

time management and effective utilization of

Resources.

. Cost Reduction opportunities highlighted for many projects by

removing the unwanted Process.

. Reduced the Material Rejection/Scrap by doing BOM Analysis

and by doing the BOM Merge.

. DFM Database Management by including all status like NRE PO,work schedule,Customer feedbacks, Internal process

feedbacks,DFM closure status,ICT Coverage and NRE Billing

details.

. Prepared the world-class DFx report format.

. In Depth Manufacturing Process Knowledge and strong idea for

all manufacturing capabilities of different Process

and machineries like SMT reflow, Wave Soldering,ICT, X-

Ray,FPT,Conformal Coating, Selective soldering machine,AOI,AXI which help me to serve as a solution provider to

the stake holders in the very limited time.

. Get into the top DFM participant list in Mentor Community to

learn,share network.

Secondary Role in NPI-Engineering QA

. Verification and Approval of Product file at the time of

Proto/Pilot Launching time.

. Review of Process flow,FMEA,Control Plan based on the

customer Requirements

. Maintaining/Controlling of Database for Product file .

. Controlling of Product file through Share point

. Active Participation in Quality planning Meeting .

. Preparation and change control of NPI system procedures and

Formats.

. Monitor the NPI System Process and updation of system

procedure whenever necessary.

. Facing the NPI Audits.

. Developed many new improvements in NPI.

. Generated a world-class format for Product Transfer.

. Participation in " Product Launch Transfer" Process by

checking QPM closure and DFM closure.

. Active participation as an Internal Auditor.

Achievements

. Developed Engineering Quality function and its activities.

. Product file Readiness at the correct time of Proto/Pilot

launch, thus reduced the potential risk in Manufacturing

. Developed the effectiveness of system by implementing Product

Transfer process.

. Developed the Product file implementation and its approval

process through share point.

. Automated process implemented to reduce the product file

preparation time.
