Tesla

What to Expect

Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg marks a defining moment in Europe for Tesla’s mission of accelerating the world’s transition to sustainable energy. Here we will launch revolutionary products on a massive scale, using extraordinary speed, innovation and efficiency. Our employees will ensure that we achieve our goals, and we welcome you to help us write the next chapter of our success story.

The Role

The Process Engineer will be the technical subject matter expert of their assigned process. Implement, develop, and optimize laser processes in the manufacturing operations of Tesla. Optimize product flow though the factory though process optimization that may include tool /fixture selection, line layouts, ergonomic study, material presentation, and other relevant factors. Take care of reliability, availability and quality of the process and related equipment. 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.

What You’ll Do

Analyze and optimize laser processes to ensure safety while maximizing Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and yield rate in cost effective means while driving to achieve world-class quality levels.
validate specifikation requirements and adjust criteria to sufficient level
statistically validate process quality and quality inspection systems
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).
Champion continuous improvement projects (CIP) to maximize yield, capacity, and capability.
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.
