About the job
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including product design, industrial design, project management, reliability, and product operations to deliver Google hardware products to market.
- Provide detailed and critical design for manufacturing reviews of mechanical parts and make recommendations to product design to improve manufacturing processes for quality, yield, and cost.
- Use statistical process control and yield studies to validate process capability (Cp/Cpk), establish reasonable specifications with product design/industrial design, and drive process improvements in partnership with a cross-functional team.
- Work with reliability engineering to set up ongoing reliability test plans for manufacturing processes that are critical to function and fix the issue.
- Act as the first-level go-to person for identifying suitable manufacturing processes. Identify and highlight manufacturability issues during engineering builds to ensure product quality is stable and that supply is predictable during ramp.
