Process Engineer, Energy Remanufacturing

What to Expect

A Process Engineer on the Energy Remanufacturing team will implement, develop, and optimize production methodologies in the Energy Remanufacturing operations of Tesla. This Engineer will be responsible for initiating and developing product flow through process optimization that may include tool / fixture selection, line layouts, ergonomic study, material presentation, 5S, Kaizen, Gemba, Six Sigma and other relevant factors, lead several initiatives for product optimization, new product introduction, and process overhauling. Mentor and train Jr Process Engineers and collaborate with external vendors in the setup and commissioning of new automated manufacturing equipment. They will interface with NPI, Design, Test, Quality, and Service Engineering to solve problems, improve manufacturability, and implement continual improvement. They will sustain products with cost reduction and yield improvements. In addition, the Process Engineer will work with Quality to compile and evaluate data to determine appropriate limits and variables for process or material specifications.

What You\'ll Do

• Lead cross functional teams in the development of Process Flows, Control Plan, GR&R, Work Instructions, Process capability, Rework Procedures, Calibration and Qualification of tools, Quality Validation, Risk Assessments (PFMEA) & New Product Introduction
