Tooling Developer with Injection molding experience

The main mission of the role is to define, develop and validate tools, equipment and associated processes:
·       to reach Tooling & Equipment transfer to plant on time, MPT and SOP on time and right first time
·       to ensure product / process robustness according to customer specification within FIS production system requirements


Main responsibilities are:

Timing plan
Build, update & monitor the complete timing plan for tools, equipment and associated processes to reach, Tooling & Equipment transfer to plant, MPT and SOP on time and right first time.
Build, update & monitor the progress of tool & process convergence to targets and report progress.

Definition and feasibility
Defines tools, equipment & associated process specificities for the program taking into considerations standard targets.
In case of refurbishmed equipment, define the specifications and follow-up the refurbishment executed by the plant
Provide input for simplification of product to reach reliable tool, equipment and associated process definition.
Provide technical support to the supplier RFQ process and tool makers / equipment providers selection process.
Validate the supplier offer from technical point of view.
Commit to necessary steps to kick off tool & equipment (SNC, Kick Off, Pre Study, Study).
Define process parameters according to product key characteristics
Provide inputs for PFMEA related to his own Tool, Equipment and processes.
Write the purchase order for Tooling
Liaise between program, plant & toolmaker to ensure tuning & implementation of product modification.

Development
Pre-requisite: ensure all necessary material (availability of raw material, packaging & checking fixtures …) are in place to perform the trials in the best conditions
If possible to pre-validate the T&E, process at Application Pilot Plant, provide the necessary inputs through standard documentation.
Organize and perform trials in the closest serial life conditions
Identify gaps to serial life conditions and major risks impacting the defined targets, set-up a convergence plan
Track progress and convergence of all defined targets (cycle time, scrap rate, dimensions …) to keep Quality, Cost, Delivery in line with the initial business plan.
Consolidate all actions in PDCA template & implement all actions defined after each trial to reach Quality, Cost, Delivery in l, Project Goal, Monitoring / Indicators, Tool, Equipment and Process target achievement, Tool & Equipment AQP ,Tuning Costs, Capex targets


Main interfaces:
Product and Design Engineering for simultaneous engineering process to achieve FES performance required
ISPS & PML for input to dimension facilities (IMM size, cycle time, capacity)
IPM / IPE from plants to include plant requirements into the specifications and get the right support during the launch phase in the plant.
Purchasing for Supplier management
Quality for product performance (dimensions and appearance)
