About this role
About the Role This group develops and integrates the Measurement and Inspection systems that enable Global Manufacturing to characterize and verify compliance of products manufactured and sold to our customers. The Measurements Engineer needs strong technical curiosity across many technologies, and the ability to learn and desire to work with others for the progress of the business. As part of a global team, this position provides measurement solutions to Corning's Optical Connectivity business to deliver best in class products to our customers. What You'll Do
- Work closely with experienced professionals across a variety of functional groups (manufacturing, division, etc.) to define, develop and implement measurement methods, inspection systems and establish timing requirements and expectations for measurement requests and communicating any/all notifications to the affected parties.
- Integrate process controls and error-proofing into the measurement process and assure the procedure is followed as documented by operations.
- Provide global expert-level support to manufacturing engineering and operations teams to ensure efficient and reliable manufacturing operations for current or new products, advice on equipment troubleshooting and repair, identify root cause and implement corrective actions.
- Train engineering, maintenance and operation associates on use and maintenance of measurement systems.
- Develop and apply measurement uncertainty / measurement system analysis techniques to ensure proper measurement system application and capability.
- Design experiments and analyze data to identify and implement measurement integrity and efficiency improvements to measurement systems for fiber optical assemblies, prototype and volume manufacturing.
- Transfer measurement technology from other location/region or in early-stage development to a system ready for use in a manufacturing environment.
- Develop and manage documentation in support of measurement system deployments including machine specifications, operating procedures, and drawing packages.
- Leverage external suppliers with key technologies or systems integration expertise to develop, procure, build, and install test equipment for capacity expansion needs.
- Lead or participate in projects for cost reduction, process improvements to address measurement cycle time reduction, measurement uncertainty (improving quality and yield issues) or equipment cost/availability.
- Develop maintenance procedures for the test equipment. What We're Looking For
- Strong technical curiosity across multiple technologies and the ability to learn quickly, with a collaborative mindset to work with cross-functional teams.
- Experience or exposure to measurement methods and inspection systems, and application of measurement uncertainty / measurement system analysis techniques.
- Ability to design experiments, analyze data, and implement improvements for optical fiber assemblies and manufacturing.
- Experience integrating process controls, troubleshooting equipment, and providing global support to manufacturing/operations.
- Aptitude for documenting machine specifications, operating procedures, drawings, and other deployment materials.
- Experience coordinating with external suppliers and system integrators for equipment development, procurement, installation, and capacity expansion.
- Track record of projects focused on cost reduction, cycle-time reduction, quality/yield improvements, or equipment availability.
