Focus: PCBA, Power Electronics (Chargers), and NPD Management
1. Position Objective
The Advanced Supplier Quality Engineer & supoervisor will be the technical lead for supplier readiness and product integrity during the New Product Development (NPD) phase. This role ensures that PCBA and Charger suppliers transition seamlessly from design to mass production with zero quality escapes. The ASQE will act as a bridge between R&D, Purchasing, and Manufacturing to drive Dock-to-Stock performance.
2. Core Responsibilities
NPD & Lifecycle Management: Lead the quality portion of the NPD process. Manage supplier selection technical assessments and ensure quality gates are met during product development.
APQP/PPAP Mastery: Coordinate Advanced Product Quality Planning for new PCBA/Charger projects. Validate PPAP submissions, focusing on SMT process capability, soldering integrity, and functional testing.
Supplier Governance: Conduct frequent on-site audits (ISO 9001/IATF 16949) at supplier facilities to monitor production line stability and compliance.
Issue Resolution (SCAR): Manage critical quality issues using 8D methodologies. Drive root-cause analysis for PCBA defects (e.g., component failures, soldering issues) and implement permanent corrective actions.
Performance Metrics: Monitor Supplier PPM and drive continuous improvement initiatives to reduce the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ).
Strategic Liaison: Work closely with Manufacturing and Engineering to manage technical deviations and quality risks before they impact the assembly line.
3. Required Qualifications & Experience
Education: Bachelor's Degree in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
Industry Experience:510 years of hands-on experience in PCBA or Charger/Power Supply manufacturing environments.
Technical Expertise:
Deep understanding of SMT processes, AOI/ICT testing, and power electronics assembly.
Expertise in NPD product development procedures and gate-review management.
Strong proficiency in SAP (Quality Modules) and advanced data analysis (SPC/Excel).
Standards: Familiarity with ISO 9001; knowledge of IPC-A-610 standards is a significant advantage.
4. Working Environment & Expectations
Travel: High mobility required. This role involves frequent business trips (up to 50-70%), primarily within the Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) area and surrounding industrial zones (Binh Duong, Dong Nai).
Problem Solving: Must be comfortable working on the factory floor at supplier sites to troubleshoot real-time production issues.
