Tesla is
accelerating the world's transition to sustainable energy. Revolutionary
strategies and products were developed within a few years and successfully
launched on a large scale. This is only possible through extraordinary speed,
innovation and efficiency.
Gigafactory
Berlin forms the perfect basis for rolling out Tesla's incredible success story
in Europe. The most important pillar for this are our employees. Their passion,
motivation and engagement ensure that we achieve our goals. We are looking for
you to continue and expand this success story together.
The Role
Implement, develop, and optimize production
methodologies in the manufacturing operations of Tesla. Optimize product flow
through the factory through process optimization that may include tool /fixture
selection, line layouts, ergonomic study, material presentation, and other
relevant factors. Interface with design, test, and quality engineering to solve
problems, improve manufacturability, and implement continual improvement.
Sustain products with cost reduction and yield improvements. Work with quality
to compile and evaluate data to determine appropriate limits and variables for
process or material specifications.
Responsibilities
- Analyze and optimize
production processes to ensure safety while maximizing Overall Equipment
Effectiveness (OEE) in cost effective means while driving to achieve
world-class quality levels.
- Champion continuous
improvement projects (CIP) to maximize yield, capacity, and capability.
- Apply technical
knowledge to innovate, design and develop processes, procedures, tooling, and
assembly fixtures.
- Work with
cross-functional teams to develop, validate, and improve processes used in
manufacturing and manufacturability of designs.
- Enable data driven
operational and financial decisions through predictive insights into tool and
process performance, including integration of factory data systems and use of
software such as MySQL, Python, R, JMP, Tableau and Ignition.
- Utilize structured
problem solving techniques such as Design of Experiments (DoE), Five Why (5W)
and Eight Disciplines (8D)
- Monitor and reduce
process variation using techniques such as Statistical Process Control (SPC)
and Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA).
- Participate in the
transition of a product from concept to pilot line production and into mass
manufacturing.
- Monitor and audit
manufacturing processes to ensure product specifications and standards are
achieved.
- Create and maintain
Manufacturing Instructions, routings, and associated processes.
- Participate in the
development and maintenance of FMEAs and Control Plans.
- Implement and support
Lean manufacturing and 5S initiatives.
- Analyze, develop,
process, and implement Engineering Change Orders.
- Develop and modify line
layouts, including material flow, waste reduction, and ergonomics, utilizing
Lean Manufacturing best practices.
- Develop and train Process
Technicians
- Assist in the training
of operators as needed.
Requirements
- Minimal 3 years’ of experienced
in a manufacturing environment preferred.
- Must possess process
engineering skills (process development/improvement, troubleshooting, data
analysis, constraint analysis, flow optimization, root cause analysis, etc.
- Strong team working
skills at all levels of an organization, especially skilled at working with
direct labor to understand challenges and work on developing optimal solutions
using structured methods.
- Good understanding of
BOMs, manufacturability, process design, process validation, assembly methods,
design reviews and cost reduction methodologies.
- Previous experience
with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) desired.
- Experience breaking
down high-level (e.g. device level) performance issues into addressable action
items.
- Capable of identifying
critical process parameters and applying statistics to process measurement and
control.
- Strong skills with
common workplace software (word processor, spreadsheet, database, etc.).
- Ability to read and
interpret basic mechanical and electrical drawings.
- Fluent English language skills
are required.
- Preferably experience and/or expertise in the processes on the line like: Thermal bonding, Laser welding, Selective Soldering, Electrical Testing, Fastening.
