The Manufacturing Engineer – Laser Welding is responsible for collaborating with NPI, Quality, Maintenance, and Operations teams to lead process ownership for laser welding applications used in high-speed cable assemblies, backplane systems, and electronic interconnect products — supporting NPI, process transfer, production ramp, and stable mass production.

Responsibilities
- Own manufacturing readiness and ongoing process performance for assigned products, including laser welding process definition, equipment, optics, fixtures, tooling, workstation design, process parameters, documentation, capacity, and training.
- Define, validate, release, and maintain weld schedules, focal position, spot size, power, pulse profile, travel speed, beam path, shielding gas, clamping conditions, heat input, and acceptance criteria; establish robust process windows for thin metals, shields, terminals, and connector components.
- Lead DFM reviews focused on material compatibility, coatings and plating, joint geometry, gap control, laser access, reflectivity, heat-affected-zone risk, distortion,



spatter, porosity, and penetration.
- Specify, qualify, install, and support laser welding systems, beam delivery, vision alignment, optics, motion platforms, fixtures, extraction, guarding, and poka-yoke devices.
- Develop DOE and validation plans to confirm weld penetration, nugget size, joint strength, electrical resistance, dimensional stability, and process capability; establish first-article requirements, cross-sectioning, pull testing, inspection standards, SPC controls, and reaction plans.
- Integrate laser welding with cable preparation, termination, shielding, connector assembly, and electrical test; partner with Signal Integrity and Test Engineering to evaluate weld-related effects on grounding, contact resistance, impedance, and high-speed electrical performance.
- Provide hands-on engineering support during EVT, DVT, PVT, pilot, ramp, and mass production builds.
- Bachelor's degr
