ENGINEER, QUALITY & RELIABILITY

Job Purpose

To strengthen the reliability, manufacturability, and compliance of MV switchgear products through structured design risk management, DFMEA execution, and continuous improvement initiatives. The role focuses on integrating Critical-to-Quality (CTQ) parameters, applying Design-to-Manufacturing (DTM) principles, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure designs meet IEC standards and business objectives.

Key Accountability Areas

Design Risk Management (DFMEA)

• Lead the preparation, execution, and maintenance of Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) for MV switchgear products (RMUs, circuit breakers, load break switches, mechanisms, CTs/VTs, and busbars).
• Evaluate severity, occurrence, and detection ratings to drive actionable risk mitigation strategies.
• Maintain DFMEA documentation throughout the product lifecycle to support audits and compliance.

Critical-to-Quality (CTQ) and Design Validation

• Define CTQ parameters (dielectric strength, temperature rise, mechanical endurance, interlocking reliability, and safety margins) and integrate them into design requirements.
• Ensure CTQ compliance through type testing, reliability assessments, and validation activities based on IEC 62271 series.

Design-to-Manufacturing (DTM) and Assembly Optimization (DTA)

• Apply DTM/DTA methodologies to optimize product designs for manufacturability, assembly efficiency, and cost reduction.
• Collaborate with manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams to ensure seamless industrialization and production readiness.

Design Assurance and Reporting

• Provide structured risk and quality input during design reviews.
• Create dashboards and reports to track DFMEA status, CTQ metrics, and closure of action items.
• Lead workshops and initiatives to strengthen product design robustness and minimize risks.
