PR/160698 | Process Engineer (New Plant Setup – Laos)

Join a global leader in electronic components as part of a new manufacturing plant setup in Laos. This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in establishing processes, driving operational excellence, and supporting the successful ramp-up of production in a greenfield environment.
 

Key Responsibilities

• Support new plant setup activities, including process development, equipment installation, and production line commissioning.

• Lead new product introduction (NPI) and product transfer projects to ensure smooth and timely implementation.

• Develop, implement, and continuously improve manufacturing processes to enhance yield, efficiency, and product quality.

• Drive process optimization and automation initiatives to improve productivity and reliability.

• Collaborate with global and inter-plant teams to transfer knowledge, implement best practices, and support continuous improvement initiatives.

• Troubleshoot production issues using structured problem-solving methods (4M, root cause analysis, CAPA).

• Apply engineering tools such as DOE, SPC, PFMEA, and statistical analysis to improve processes.

• Support production in resolving technical issues and sustaining stable operations.

• Lead engineering evaluations, maintain documentation (drawings, ECN), and manage change control processes (QCPC).

• Develop and implement training programs to build local team capabilities and operational readiness.

• Lead and mentor process technicians and engineers to achieve project and production goals.
   

Key Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering (Process, Mechanical, Manufacturing, or related field).

• Minimum 3 years of experience in process engineering within a manufacturing environment.

• Experience in new plant setup, product transfer, or NPI will be a strong advantage.

• Strong knowledge of manufacturing processes, equipment, and continuous improvement methodologies.

• Hands-on experience with problem-solving, data analysis, and yield improvement.

• Familiar with Lean Manufacturing tools and quality systems (SPC, PFMEA, DOE).

• Experience in electronics or semiconductor industry is preferred.

• Strong communication skills and ability to work in a multicultural and cross-functional environment.

• Willingness to be based in Laos and support plant ramp-up activities.
