Process Manufacturing Engineer at Alstom

THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESS MANUFACTURING ENGINEER ROLE IS TO:

• Defines the manufacturing process and associated equipment for a new product, taking into account the industrial policy, existing standards and constraints of the project.  Perform industrial documentation for the project.  Estimate the manufacturing workload for the part corresponding to his domain.

THE MAIN RESPONSIBILITY WILL BE:

• During specification and preliminary design phases:
• Gather Industrial requirements Engineering has to comply with, during product specification and design. Explain them to Engineering.
• Participate actively to the product design in co-engineering mode, using appropriate methodologies.
• Design the macro-process, based on standard SMP (Standard Manufacturing Process).
• Prepare introduction of new technologies if need be, with associated process validation plan.
• Identify needs of specific manufacturing equipment.
• Estimate Method Time and perform a preliminary line balancing.
• Identify critical process steps where to perform detailed Process FMEA and full FAR (Final Assembly Inspection) / FAI (First Article Review).
• During detailed design phase and before Serial Go:

Complete industrial documentation: industrial data sheets, IMFU (Industrial Maturity Follow-Up)

• Participate to validation of prototypes if any.
• Develop specifications of industrial means for serial production.
• Define workstation layouts, taking into account ergonomic and EHS (Environment, Health and Safety) rules and optimizing movements.
• Perform a complete and detailed line balancing.
• Validate product design and industrialization through FAR and FAI.

After serial Go:

• Industrialize retrofit after engineering changes: documentation, workstation definition / update.
• Support Production to achieve manufacturing QCD (Quality, Cost, Delivery) targets.

Other activities:

• Coordinate all Supply Chain activities to secure the end of production (Missing Parts) while minimizing costs and obsolete inventories
