Key Responsibilities

• Quality & Yield Analysis:

• Develop and maintain analytical models to track First Pass Yield (FPY), defect rates, and process capability metrics.

• Conduct Root Cause Analysis (RCA) using diagnostic analytics to pinpoint process or component failures in complex assemblies.

• Manufacturing Process Optimization:

• Design and build real-time dashboards (e.g., OEE, Downtime) to monitor the performance of key production equipment and manufacturing execution systems (MES).

• Analyze manufacturing cycle times and resource utilization data to identify and eliminate bottlenecks and waste.

• Product Reliability Data:

• Analyze post-launch data, including field failures, warranty claims, and repair/return data, to provide critical feedback to the New Product Introduction (NPI) and Design teams.

• Collaborate with engineering to track the performance of critical components and predict potential failure points.

• Data Integrity & Reporting:

• Write efficient SQL queries to extract and integrate data from various manufacturing systems (MES, ERP, QMS).

• Produce standardized and ad-hoc reports to inform executive decision-making on cost reduction, quality improvement, and capacity planning.

Required Experience & Qualifications

• 2 to 4 years of direct experience as a Data Analyst or Business Intelligence Analyst within a high-volume manufacturing, electronics, or industrial environment.

• Expert-level proficiency in SQL for extracting and joining data from complex operational databases.

• Proven experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker) to present manufacturing KPIs.

• Experience working with MES (Manufacturing Execution System), ERP, or QMS data structures is highly desirable.

• Strong foundational knowledge of statistics and statistical process control (SPC).

• Demonstrated ability to conduct diagnostic and predictive analytics related to production processes and equipment performance.

• Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field such as Industrial Engineering, Data Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.

• Detail-oriented problem-solver with a passion for continuous process improvement and the ability to clearly communicate technical findings to production managers and engineers.

Physical Demands

• This role is split between analytical work at a desk and necessary time on the manufacturing floor to validate data integrity, observe processes, and conduct gemba walks with operational teams.\

• Duties may require extended periods of sitting and sustained visual concentration on a computer monitor or on numbers and other detailed data.

• Repetitive manual movements (e.g., data entry, using a computer mouse, using a calculator, etc.) are frequently required.

Typical Education

Bachelor's degree in related field, or consideration of an equivalent combination of education and experience. Educational requirements may vary by geography.
